Chris Sabin and Alex Shelley of the Motor City Machine Guns have been trying to get back into the title picture and regain the WWE Tag Team Championship. They won the title two weeks into their tenure, beating The Tongans with help from The Usos.

MCMG had multiple opportunities to regain the title, but they kept failing. They most recently lost a number one contender's Fatal Four-way match to the newly formed team of Andrade and Rey Fenix. The other two participants were DIY and Fraxiom.

Chris Sabin comments on how it feels to be working in WWE

Speaking to Bleacher Report back in May, Chris Sabin and Alex Shelley discussed what it's like to work in WWE after years on the independent circuit and other promotions. Sabin remains shell-shocked by just how big the company is and the amount of effort and manpower it takes to keep it running.

"It's an amazing experience, just being here. Especially seeing the other side of pro wrestling, as far as other companies go, independents go, companies in Japan and Mexico and all over the world, just to see how much work goes into this company and the shows and the production and just how many people work here and the organization. It's just unbelievable to see what a giant, massive company this is," Sabin said. [H/T: Bleacher Report]
