IMPACT Over Drive: Motor City Machine Guns Land Tag Team Title Shot

Motor City Machine Guns

The Motor City Machine Guns now have a clear bullseye on another reign as IMPACT Tag Team Champions.

During the pre-show of the IMPACT Over Drive pay-per-view, the Motor City Machine Guns (Alex Shelley and Chris Sabin) took out the Bullet Club (Ace Austin and Chris Bey) to grab a title shot at the IMPACT Tag Team Championship.

The match ended after Shelley caught Bey in a crucifix roll up, then Sabin landed a jacknife pin to seal the deal.

Currently, Heath and Rhino are the IMPACT World Tag Team Champions, and with Shelley and Sabin, they’ve had two prior reins with the IMPACT Tag Team Titles — and currently hold the NJPW STRONG Openweight Tag Team Championship.

No set date is scheduled yet for when the IMPACT Tag Team Championship match will happen between Heath/Rhino and the Motor City Machine Guns.

IMPACT Over Drive is currently airing on FITE TV.
