What Happened on WWE SmackDown Main Event?
In the thrilling main event of WWE SmackDown on October 25, 2024, The Motor City Machine Guns (MCMG)—Chris Sabin and Alex Shelley—claimed the WWE Tag Team Championship after a hard-fought match against The Guerrillas of Destiny (GOD)—Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa. The action erupted from the start with a chaotic brawl, showcasing the high-energy style of both teams. While GOD initially dominated the match with powerful double-team maneuvers, the tides turned when Jey Uso interfered, delivering a series of superkicks and chair shots that helped MCMG regain control.
The interference intensified the chaos, as Solo Sikoa and Jimmy Uso became embroiled in the fray, further escalating the stakes. Ultimately, MCMG executed their signature move, Skull and Bones, to secure a decisive victory and capture the titles, marking a remarkable achievement in just their third match since joining WWE. This win not only highlights the MCMG’s impact in the tag team division but also sets the stage for future rivalries and storylines.
