Mark Briscoe Remembers His Brother Jay Briscoe After ROH World Title Victory

Mark Briscoe remembers his late brother. 

The wrestling world tragically lost Jay Briscoe on January 17, 2023. Jay was part of one of the greatest tag teams of all time alongside his brother Mark Briscoe. 

On April 5, 2013, Jay Briscoe won the ROH World Title from Kevin Owens (Kevin Steen in ROH). 11 years later, on the same day, Mark Briscoe won the ROH World Title from Eddie Kingston. 

During the ROH Supercard of Honor press conference, Mark was asked what he would say to his brother. 

“I love you, dawg. I love you, dawg,” said an emotional Mark. “There are no words, man. It’s just too many coincidences for it to be a coincidence. I wear my faith on my sleeve. God is good. Stuff like this, where the tragedy that happened, you don’t want to go on or get out of bed. Then nights like tonight, this what gives me comfort. It’s what helps me move on. It’s not easy. Nights like tonight make it a whole hell of a lot easier. I don’t want to sound like a broken record, but there are no words. I love you, dawg. Help me out, be with me. Before he moved on and moved up, when we went out for a match, sometimes there are those nerves and jitters. He’d say, ‘Shit, dawg, all we got to do is go out there, walk out there, and let them balls swing.’ Until we meet again. Just trying to do him proud.”

Mark celebrated his victory with members of his family and the ROH rosters.
