The Motor City Machine Guns defeated FTR in the fifth and deciding match of their Best of Five Series to earn a shot at the AEW World Tag Team Championship.
Alex Shelley and Chris Sabin overcame Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler in West Valley City after a series that saw two teams trade wins.
In the final moments of the match, FTR tried put Shelley away. However, Shelley prevented his opponents to hit the Shatter Machine, kicked Wheeler away, and caught Harwood with a sunset flip for the three-count. AEW announced the result and the contender status on social media right after the match. The teams shook hands following the bout.
The Guns took the series 3-2 and will challenge whoever holds the titles coming out of Full Gear.
The Young Bucks are set to defend their tag team titles against Davis and Doyle (Mark Davis and Jake Doyle) at Full Gear.
The series built across multiple Dynamite and Collision episodes, including a 2-1 lead for the Guns after Fright Night. Last night’s Dynamite and Collision marked the final match.
Motor City Machine Guns jumped ship from WWE to AEW earlier this year and this marks their first title shot lined up in the company.
