Kevin Owens says seeing The Motor City Machine Guns sign with WWE is “surreal.”
While speaking with Yahoo! Sports prior to Saturday Night’s Main Event, Owens commented on the arrival of Alex Shelley and Chris Sabin. He said,
“I’m not surprised at any of the guys’ success. Even though I will say the Machine Guns joining WWE recently was really surreal, because it’s almost like we all made it. Many of us from that time all got to the mainstream wrestling level or whatever, but the Guns, the Machine Guns, they had done TNA, but they never got to WWE. I guess you assume after a while, it’s not going to happen. Not because they weren’t good enough. Obviously, they’ve always been top talent in the wrestling world. But I don’t know, for some reason, sometimes it’s not in the cards or timing, stuff like that. For them to finally end up here, it was pretty crazy.”
He continued, “Yet when I see them at SmackDown, it’s like, ‘Oh yeah, of course those guys are here.’ It’s like they’ve always been here because they probably should have always been here.”
