@@bodavis4545Well said! Dem Boys were not just brothers. They were also BEST FRIENDS. Family came first, but their team was very important and extremely special! I wasn't lucky enough to have seen their indie days, however when I saw them in RoH, they blew my mind!! They were awesome. One of the absolute best Tag-Teams I'd seen in a while. In a era when Tag-Teams were being split-up, feuding, whatever, these guys weren't the same old throw together Tag-Team. Again they were special and what they accomplished was phenomenal.
Both men. I know its bigger for Mark, but Jay Lethal had to go out and be Mark's safety net. If Mark broke Jay was there to hold it together. Lethal gets his fair share of stick from the IWC, but there are few who coulda been called on like that. Thank you Mark, thank you Lethal. Thank you Jay Briscoe.
Mark coming out with both belts was so great The locker room spilling out like that at the end, everybody there to be there for Mark was perfect. It's still just impossible to imagine a Ring of Honor that doesn't have The Briscoes in it.
It’s feels so wrong seeing Mark with both belts knowing that Jay should be carrying the other belt with him. Seeing him come out with both belts was the moment I knew I wouldn’t be able to keep my eyes dry for that match. Rest In Peace Jay
Props to Tony for helping make this happen. He looked like he broke down crying right after the hug and had to get off camera. Say what you will about him but he's a true wrestling fan. Jay Briscoe will remain with us forever 🙏🏻
I love the fact how instead of Mark saying “I miss you” he just said “I love you.” I think maybe he did that because he knows his brother will ALWAYS be with him.
This better not be a one-off. Mark Briscoe deserves to be on national TV every week. Very real, very serious, and a very smooth wrestler. R.I.P. Jay Briscoe.
Seeing Jay Lethal in tears from the start had me going, and seeing him be himself and Mark Briscoe come out holding both titles was more emotion than I was expecting to take in. These 2 men put on a clinic to the very end.
I'm not ashamed to say that I cried manly tears over this. There was no kayfabe here. It was all real and emotional as hell. There couldn't have been a more beautiful or classy tribute to Jay Briscoe.
I love this. It’s Jay Lethal. Not the character, nor the heel, but the human being who’s honouring a departed friend alongside Mark Briscoe. I love these moments in wrestling more than any story told in wrestling. Where it’s beyond the characters they play on tv
The emotion on Lethal's face was heartbreaking. Mark hid his well but I can't imagine what he is going through. This was just amazing to watch. RIP Jay 🙏.
I'm a 42 year old and I cried like a baby watching this match. The greatest tag team in ROH history will forever be a tag team champion. I lost my older brother 15 months ago and I know how Mark is feeling and to see the emotions on his and Jay Lethal face at the end of the match was so sad. RIP to Jay Briscoe
I'm 37 & i do the same........ for me i lost my Great Grandma later 2014 to 2015 then my Grandma around 2017 then then my Grandpa in 2022 6 months after selling his farm I was a Pallbearer with 5 others 2 front then 2 in the back & me & 1 other in the middle
Not even joking I cried so damn hard through this WHOLE match! I’ve followed the Briscoes since the very beginning. God bless Briscoe’s family! And Tony Kahn is a class act letting the whole roster come out for a tribute after! REACH FOR THE SKY BOY RIP Jay, you will be missed!
@@reallynotmateo8805 The strength, will and determination that Mark showed to go out and do his job that him and his brother who, yes just passed away, have been training for since they have been 5 years old is what makes this the realist thing ever produced in wrestling which makes it very very special and if you cant see that then thats on you
Not being an over the top AEW fan , I must say this transcends wrestling. This was a wonderful tribute to a fallen star that brought a tear to my eye as they tore it down. Mark and Lethal did Jay proud. God bless Briscoe family and friends.
Spot on I feel bad for Mark especially because he was always used to traveling and wrestling with his brother all the time and u can tell the emotions in this match were high and now he's alone my heart is broken for him especially damn I almost cried RIP JAY BRISCOE 😢
@@josgor9061 They were in ROH. And won the tag belts. Could have had future plans to make AEW appearances. Tony did what he could do under the circumstances. I'm sorry your life is just miserable. You know nothing of the situation. Stay off the social media and make your own life meaningful.
It is seriously so heartbreaking that he had to pass away to finally get the recognition he's deserved for the past 10+ years in this business. My only hope now is that maybe they'll keep Mark on AEW TV and give him the credit he's also deserved
I want to see MarK, on AEW, more! He is such a great wrestler and it would be devastating to not see him wrestle again! I loved his and Jay’s tag team matches. The Briscoes are one of a kind!
It's official. He wrestled Josh Woods on this week's Dynamite and then got signed to AEW. It should've been done over a year ago while Jay was still with us but I'll take it now.
@@Maddogg-hg5me yea I seen. Good match too. I really like Mark's move set. I figured that would happen tho. Unfortunately Jay's comments were what kept them off TV. Now that its just Mark there's no real reason. It sucks, but at least it's happening. Hopefully Mark can get a better singles push than he did in ROH. Like Jays a few years ago
Hearing “ Reach for the sky, boy” almost started crying. Jay was my favorite wrestler in todays wrestling and the Briscoes were my favorite tag team. I sincerely hope Mark keeps wrestling and is successful. Nobody could deliver a promo like Jay! Hot damn he was fire!!!!
The amount of not only strength but badass and love Mark has, to be able to perform like this is unreal. Reminded me of Bret's tribute match on WCW nitro for Owen. What a beautiful send off for Jay.
Thank you AEW and Tony K for this. The whole match was emotional. The ending scene with the roster awaiting Mark at the top of the ramp was heart-wrenching......but what a tribute indeed.
This was such a tragedy. Tony Khan and AEW made a tribute for Jay Briscoe that I know he was watching. I'm sitting here watching this and when Mark won, and everyone came out, Jay Lethal hugged Mark Briscoe, I was in tears. I have loved Pro Wrestling for decades, since the days of the AWA's All-Star Wrestling show in the 70's. But only AEW has shown the level of respect and admiration that Men like Jay Briscoe and Brody Lee deserved. Tony Khan has my respect and I know how much he truly cares about his team, his business, his family. This was a Beautiful Tribute to a Great Dad, a Wonderful Husband, a Brother who was ALSO his best friend, and a fierce competitor who had more talent and determination than 99.9999% of the wrestlers around today. This was a tragedy that took a Dad from his kids, a husband from his wife, and a brother and best friend who was devoted to all of them! Jay Briscoe and Mark Briscoe are easily Hall of Famers. They worked harder than again most of the "popular" and "well known" Tag-Teams who ever wrestled. Not taking anything away from any of them. I've loved the Tag-Team Division since the days of the High Flyers back in the 70's with the AWA. But Mark & Jay Briscoe had a drive and were more dedicated than most. Whether the crowd was a Gymnasium with 50-250 people or a arena with 1,000 - 2,500+ or more, they ALWAYS GAVE 1,000% EVERY SINGLE TIME OUT. They always made sure that fans ALWAYS GOT a 1,000 % BRISCOE BROTHERS WRESTLING MATCH! They are/were so talented and exciting to watch. God Bless Jay Briscoe, his family, especially his daughters and his wife, Mark, and the rest of his family. You will be missed but your LIFE, AND LOVE FOR YOUR FAMILY IS ETERNAL. So is the love for Jay and Mark's work inside the ring. It will never be forgotten. 🙏🕊RIP🙏🕊Jay🙏🕊🙏🙏 WE LOVE YOU!
@@EdsterIII Thank you for your admirable comment. I wish I could like it more than once. Like you, I also began watching wrestling decades ago. I actually started watching EMLL Mexico (now CMLL) when I was a kid prior to the US Territory days of the early 80s. Yes, Tony Khan has my ultimate respect for not only giving me back pro wrestling, but for his unwavering support for his talent and for being a true fan like all of us. Ive been with AEW since Day 1 in 2019 and am loud and proud to be here.
Notice how Samoa Joe was wanting to hug Mark too, but when he turned back he just smiled and applauded. There's a lot of love and respect among all them. I hope this is a signal for everyone. Even Punk and The Elite.
Marks so good even on the way out he turned at the perfect moment to pose for the cameras on fade out. Only natural the King Of Television would understand ;)
Mark and Lethal put on a fantastic match tonight. The strength it must have taken to wrestle such a great match whilst dealing with the loss of his brother, Mark is the definition of 'badass' as far as I'm concerned. R.I.P Jay🌹
Look at the Jay Brisco story as not one of a tragic end, but of a story of redemption. A story of how a man can change, how a man can educate himself, how a man can better himself. A man who was incredibly talented and who was professional. A man who night in and night out entertained us the fans. This match was an amazing tribute between two professionals hell of a job by both men whose emotions were running high.
God damn, it was so heart breaking to see Mark carry both belts by himself. The Bricoe's got me back into professional wrestling, made me enjoy watching it again, I'll love and respect both of them for it too.
I almost cried at the end with everyone there being there for Mark giving him a round of applause and Mark still being the badass as he is is just so heartwarming and beautiful. RIP. Jay Briscoe Rest in peace.💗
Same I almost teared up at the end but at the same time I feel happy and inspired by mark like you said still being a badass especially so soon after what a match and I love lethal too but the fact that he told us to keep our heads high speaks volumes man what a great tough guy I’m glad to see him continue the legacy and show how much him and Jay loved this and he still does
I actually did cry. When Mark said to his brother, "I love you!" I lost it. Then as the other wrestlers came out of the back the next wave hit, and either before that occurred or after, when Jay Lethal grabbed Mark Briscoe and hugged him another wave hit. When Brodie Lee passed away Tony Khan also did a special tribute. AEW has truly brought back my love of wrestling again, but Tony Khan also showed me how much he truly cares about not only his company, but EVERYONE who works there. Tony Khan himself loves wrestling, and you can see it in every show, every PPV, all of it. He's earned the respect and love of wrestling fans as well. What he's done for these men was a very special tribute that both men deserved. By that I'm referring again to when Brodie Lee passed away. This tragedy was devastating for everyone, but his daughters who thankfully survived the accident will have a long way to recovery. I hope and pray it all goes smoothly and they recover quickly and fully from this tragic loss.
@@explosive_shart9405 Big time. I was a little more familiar with Brodie, so his got me a little worse, but they were both incredibly tragic. Two bearded, manly, family men, by all accounts amazing fathers, taken far too soon after a dog collar match.
Very emotional match, this was needed. Mark made his brother smile. The wrestling world needed to see Mark perform for his brother and I honor that. R.I.P Jay Briscoe
That image of mark roaring while holding both belts up with his brothers image behind him…iconic. And will live on forever in wrestling history. How he had the mental and emotional will to come out and do what he did with no tears. 🫡 Mark my hat is off to you.
Great job AEW. Fantastic tribute by Mark. You guys have made all of us Sussex County kids proud for 20 years - and Mark will continue to do so. RIP Jamin. We miss you, bro.
6:38 Watching it last night and seeing it on here this morning got me choked up. RIP Jay Briscoe and condolences to his family. Also wishing a speedy recovery to his 2 little girls. Reach for the sky Boy!!!!
As wrestling fans, we're all so connected to the stories and the people, watching weekly makes you feel like you know the performers. So losing someone like this hurts all of us, Thank you AEW, Thank you TK, for everything you did for Brodie and now for Jay. This is pro wrestling. The outpouring of support here is amazing. God Bless pro wrestling, and the fans. Love ya'll.
Aplausos para Mark por ser tan profesional, pronta resignación. La verdad me causo sentimientos encontrados ver solo a Mark, con el pensamiento de que en cualquier momento aparecería Jay, sin duda una de las mejores duplas de todos los tiempos, siempre se extrañara Jay y los movimientos sincronizados que nos tenían acostumbrado los hermanos Briscoe, la verdad aún me es imposible asimilar que Jay ya no está con nosotros, me siento triste, en México dejo muy buenos recuerdos e historia. QEPD Jay Briscoe...
Thank you Mark for a great match tonight. I'm sorry for your family's loss, and your brother was an awesome wrestler and will be missed. God bless you and your family.
I loved the pride in Coleman and Riccaboni's voices, that they were finally able to share the Briscoes on such a stage after so long. If Mark gets the ROH World title at the end of this long road, I'm gonna lose it.
AEW is truly amazing with their beautiful tributes. This is emotional for me, I met both of them on the first Jericho Cruise and got to party with them and I'll never forget that experience. Seeing them face off against each other in the Sea of Honor tournament was just phenomenal. Two guys who laid it on the line and always gave a performance and attitude to be remembered. Reach for the sky Jay, love them boys
I don't even have the words to express how this made me feel. I'm a bigger fan of Marks' after this, and I didn't think that could've been possible. I was in awe of the Briscoes. R.I.P. Jamin
That was such a priceless tribute, and on what would have been Jay's 39th Birthday. Seeing Mark in AEW was such an incredible moment. I just wish Jay was there with him. Rest peacefully Jay. You will be dearly missed
@David Bristow Shakespeare died on his birthday. You can go at any time, so make the most of the time we have, with the people we love, and let them no how much they mean before you can no longer tell them.
What strength and character shown by Mark to get into that ring so soon after losing his brother. Props to Jay Lethal as well. Both of those guys are such great wrestlers and they put on a fantastic show. RIP Jay Briscoe.
I know a lot of people give aew flack for a lot of things but the one thing they do really amazing is their tribute shows. This and the Brodie Lee show had me tearing up like a baby. What a way to honor the amazing life of someone who gave pro wrestling his absolute all. DEM BOYS forever.
Thank you for the man, the athlete that you have been for all these good times entertainment thank you Jay forever in our hearts rest in peace champion ♥️ Reach for the sky boy ✊♥️
What a match! What a night! What a moment! Got me tears a lot man. For Jay! Love you Mark ! Thank you Tony Khan, Mark Jay, ROH & AEW! Rip Jamin Pugh! Dem Boyz forever! ❤
Gotta give Mark the upmost respect. I didn't expect to see him wrestle again, especially this quickly. RIP to Jay Briscoe, still hands down my FAVOURITE promo's ever.
I saw a picture of Jay the weekend before he passed away, caring his daughters glittery backpack so proudly, cheering on his daughters at practice. He was an amazing wrestler but an even more amazing human being, husband, father and brother. He'll be missed
This made me literally tear up and cry. I had only seen the Briscoe Brothers in the last few years. However the last two I've been able to find many of their matches and EVERYONE OF THEM were amazing. I am so sorry I hadn't heard about them earlier. I would have so loved to see them live at a RoH event. When I saw this in my news feed I wasn't sure, and I HOPED it wasn't real. But when I looked it up my jaw dropped. My heart sank, and I was devastated. When Owen Hart passed away I had that same sadness. Devoted Dad's, wonderful husband's, and great men, as well as being incredibly talented. This hurt. Since then I've been watching some classic matches, some tributes, and older things. But AEW & Tony Khan really got my respect and admiration. When he bought RoH some people weren't too thrilled, BUT I hoped that finally the Briscoes would now get their shot at the AEW Tag-Team Titles. This tribute was done so well, and with so much heart. AEW has become MORE than just a wrestling company, they really do care and treat their wrestlers with respect and dignity, like a family. Jay Briscoe will be missed more than I can put into words. He was a potent and tough as nails competitor. His wrestling abilities are second to none. But again where his most incredible accomplishment and pride, they are in his children and his family. 🙏🕊RIP🕊🙏Jay Briscoe🙏 Your family are in our prayers. A 10 bell salute in only a small part of how much we'll miss you. Thank you for your dedication, hard work, and for being a great man. God Bless you and your family and fans. 🔔🔔🔔🔔🔔🔔🔔🔔🔔🔔
There are few things on this earth like the bond between wrestlers, the fans and everyone in the locker room. The heart in this one you can sense within a moment.
It’s a shame that we couldn’t get both Briscoes in AEW because of a tweet Jay Briscoe put out over 10 years ago and Warner Bros still crying over it. But it’s cool to see Mark Briscoe in AEW giving a tribute to his brother. RIP Jay Briscoe 🙏❤️
@@Khaot1x that's an immature way of thinking about it. Companies don't hold "grudges" they don't care personally. They just do what they think will earn them more money. Obviously someone at WB took the decision that having the Briscoes on wouldn't earn the money that could potentially be lost by bad publicity. They did the same with Johnny Depp. It's really not personal. Then the other way around, they continued working with jk Rowling despite the stuff she said because they thought the money was worth it. With how badly Fantastic beasts 3 did, there's currently no plans to work with her going forward. But if the og Harry Potter cast come back for a sequel then suddenly she'll be worth it again
@@Khaot1x mate it's seriously not personal. They didn't "hold it against him". They just didn't think he was worth the risk of loss of revenue in case others did. There's a big difference
I am sitting here crying like a child. Thank You Mark Briscoe and Jay Lethal. Way to honor Jay !! Two guys that can tear it up. Thank you Tony Khan. Thanks to the AEW roster. Thanks again to the Two men in that ring !! Fantastic !!
I was crying when I saw Lethal barely holding it together but then Mark coming out with both Titels made me lose it. I cried the whole match. What an amazing tribute to Jay. I'm sure he's so proud. RIP Jay. And thank Mark and Jay lethal
Whenever you are on the road with the guy that beats the same blood through his veins, your brother, each other's keeper from day one then to never again to be physically able to walk side by side to the ring to perform for the fan's has to be a feeling that has to be just tearing him up deep inside. May he fight for Jay as if he still remains by his side. Rest in peace Jay and Godspeed.
It’s October and I think this still one of my top 10 matches of the year for 2023. It’s simple, but the fact that the Briscoes were banned from TV, it took Jay’s death to get Mark on there, and his first match was in the main event of Dynamite, and he and Lethal tore the house down. I love this match.
An incredible match and an incredible tribute. Thank you Jay, Mark, Tony and everyone. And rest in peace Jay Briscoe, an absolute legend who will never be forgotten.
I can’t imagine losing a family member and then going out and performing, let alone performing in honestly an amazing match. Rest in Peace Jay, the mark you’ve made on pro wrestling will be etched in its history forever.
Its heart breaking I'm a professional wrestler been training 4 maybe 5 years now and I had a match in 2021 at one of my schools training shows the day after my grandad passed it's such a hard thing to do but like mark did for jay you just want to go out and make them proud.
Mark Is A True Warrior. To Be Able To Still Perform Like That, On Your Brothers Birthday, One Week Removed From His Death... Most Inspirational Wrestler Of 2023, Easy.
Jay Briscoe is smiling down, the strength it took for Mark Briscoe to even do that match props to him and Jay Lethal (I cried also Jay its okay) Reach for the sky, Boy 🙏
How can something be so heartbreaking yet so inspirational at the same time. Thank you Mark for being so strong and an inspiration to me to be a better person.
This was a great match, but one that will be hard to look back on without shedding a tear, it was that emotional. Thank you Tony Khan, Jay Lethal, Mark Briscoe, and the rest of the AEW staff for honoring Jay tonight. RIP Jamin Pugh (Jay Briscoe)🙏
Mark and Jay Lethal really did perform their HEARTS out not just for the fans but for Jay Briscoe and his family I just happy for both guys for this was therapeutic R.I.P Jamin Pugh aka Jay Briscoe this is equally heartbreaking as Jon Huber aka Mr. Brodie Lee 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿💔💔💔💔💔
RIP JAY....WE MISS U BRO....MARK COMPLETELY NAILED THE TRIBUTE MATCH FOR HIS BROTHER ......JAY BRISCOE WAS LARGER THAN LIFE AND HE HAD A HEART OF GOLD 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏💙💙💙💙💔💔💔💔💔✊️✊️✊️✊️✊️✊️
