Over the last few months some surprising names have been released from WWE. Fans were shocked back in April when it was reported that the Motor City Machine Guns were released, and shortly after the company released the New Day as well.
Motor City Machine Guns officially arrived in All Elite Wrestling last week and it’s been heavily rumored for some time now that the New Day are also AEW bound.
While talking about WWE’s decision to part ways with the two aforementioned tag teams on the AJ Styles Show, The Phenomenal One questioned whether or not it was a smart decision to let them go.
“I have so much respect for these two tag teams and know what they’re capable of. Man, I don’t know if it was the smartest decision letting those two tag teams go. I don’t know. I wouldn’t bet that it’d be a smart decision.
I am biased. Two guys that I’ve known forever in Alex Shelley and Chris Sabin, and then Austin Creed, who I have literally known for over two decades. Like, we go way back. And Kofi is such an awesome dude.”
It’s not just their wrestling—it’s their psychology. They have years of experience with psychology, and they have perfected it in a tag team ring. So, yeah, man, I can’t say enough good things about these four guys. They’re amazing. I hope they kill it. I mean, because I love these guys. Those are my boys. I freaking want to see them do well.”
The New Day are expected to become free agents soon, so it’s likely we’ll know their next move sooner than later. Stay tuned for updates.
