Ten years later, Sabin is again the X-Division Champion. Now, his tag team partner Alex Shelley is the World Champion and he has no desire to take that title away from his friend.

"I'm 1,000% happy being the X Division champion. For a long time, I thought Alex Shelley deserved to be a World Champion in some sort of major promotion and I'm happy to see him finally accomplish that. He's having a good run and I want him to continue that. He's not just my partner, he's one of my best friends. So I want him to succeed and there's no reason for me to go after him. I'm happy being the X-Division Champion. I want him to enjoy his run on top," Sabin said on the Battleground podcast.
