The Motor City Machine Guns is a professional wrestling tag team consisting of Alex Shelley and Chris Sabin. The team is best known for its work in the American company Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA), where they are former TNA World Tag Team Champions. Through TNA's then relationship with New Japan Pro Wrestling (NJPW), the team also worked for the Japanese promotion, where they won the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Championship. The team name, which has been variably Motor and Murder City, is a play on the nickname of Detroit, the hometown of both Shelley and Sabin. They are currently working for Ring of Honor (ROH).

Shelley and Sabin first started teaming in Pro Wrestling Zero1-Max in 2006. On August 25 they took the Zero-1 Max International Lightweight Tag Team Championship from Minoru Fujita and Ikuto Hidaka, holding them for almost two years before dropping them back to Fujita and his new partner Takuya Sugawara. After returning Stateside, the pair had short runs in the independent promotions Pro Wrestling Guerrilla and Ring of Honor under the names Motor City Machine Guns and Murder City Machine Guns respectively until their main employer, Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA) requested their wrestlers stop taking bookings with certain independent companies.
