Mark Briscoe ensured that he could still walk to the ring with his brother, even after Jay passed away.
Jay Briscoe tragically passed away in January 2023, as he was involved in a fatal car accident. Mark Briscoe continues to carry on their legacy as a team by competing in AEW and ROH.
On the newest episode of AEW Meal and a Match, RJ City, Renee Paquette, Orange Cassidy, and Willow Nightingale watched one of Mark Briscoe’s matches in AEW. City explained why
This was explained to me. If you see in the middle screen there, that’s Jay Briscoe walking to the ring through the eras, so he can walk still with his brother to the ring.
“This was explained to me,” he said. “If you see in the middle screen there, that’s Jay Briscoe walking to the ring through the eras, so he can walk still with his brother to the ring.”
Orange Cassidy then commented on teaming up with Mark Briscoe. He stated that it was a privilege.
“I feel very privileged that Mark is allowing us to tag with him. I think it’s a very special thing for him to have people to tag with, and I’ll never fill his brother’s shoes because his brother was incredible.”
Mark Briscoe On Winning ROH Title
Mark Briscoe won the ROH World Championship at ROH Supercard of Honor. The date was the anniversary of when Jay Briscoe previously won the same title. Speaking with Fightful, Mark Briscoe discussed his title win and said that God had his hand in the situation.
“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.
