Earlier this year at the Ring of Honor’s Supercard of Honor pay-per-view, Mark Briscoe defeated the Mad King Eddie Kingston to become the new Ring of Honor World Champion. Recently, the ROH World Champion reflected on winning the title.
While speaking to Fightful, Mark Briscoe shared his thoughts on winning the Ring of Honor World Championship. Briscoe mentioned that God had played a hand in his capturing the title on the anniversary of when his brother the late Jay Briscoe had won the ROH World Title.
“It was too much of a coincidence to be a coincidence. God had his hand in how I ended up winning the title on the anniversary of when my brother won the title, and it was in Philadelphia, which is right up the road for a lot of our friends and family to drive up to. If it happened to be in Chicago or Los Angeles or wherever, they wouldn’t have been able to be there. That was real cool. Being there from the first show in Ring of Honor and seeing the beginning of it all and what the title really means and the history of the title and actually being in the building for some of those matches and then come full circle, I get a shot at the title in Philly. There are no words. It’s just really cool,” Mark Briscoe said.
Briscoe is still the ROH World Champion. His latest title defense was against Chris Jericho at the AEW WrestleDream pay-per-view.
