Chris Sabin Confirms Motor City Machine Guns’ WWE Release and Plugs New Band Project

The Motor City Machine Guns’ WWE release is now officially confirmed, and they used the moment to promote something else entirely.

After reports noted that the Motor City Machine Guns were gone from WWE, Sabin took to Twitter on April 27, 2026 to confirm the news himself, and his response wasn’t what you’d expect from a fresh release. Instead of frustration or disappointment, Sabin acknowledged the situation and immediately shifted focus to something completely different.

“Yup, they released us. Anyways, check out our band GRPPLNG here’s a link to pre order our 4 song EP. Love you all.”

That reaction set the tone instantly, showing there’s no panic on his end and that he’s already looking ahead beyond WWE. Shelley also chimed in shortly after, keeping things just as light and casual in response to Sabin’s tweet: “lol. Josh.”

This confirms that both members of the Motor City Machine Guns are officially done with WWE, but their reaction suggests they’re not treating it like a setback. If anything, they’re using the moment to pivot and promote their next move outside the ring.

For a team with their reputation and history, this likely won’t be the last stop. But for now, they’ve made it clear they’re not slowing down. No drama, no long statements; just a release confirmation and a plug, which pretty much tells you everything about how they’re handling it.

Do you think the Motor City Machine Guns will land somewhere big next, or is this the start of a completely different chapter for them? Let us know your thoughts and feedback.
