You know, many years ago when I was watching WCW Monday Nitro, there was an episode that had a

0:08.0

Bret Hart Chris Benoit tribute match. And it was a tribute match to Owen Hart. There's

0:14.9

a few months after Owen passed away. And it was several months before Bret was ready to

0:20.2

get back out there. And he and Benoit got in the ring and they had one of the greatest

0:23.9

matches in Nitro history. As a tribute to somebody who in the case of Benoit respected

0:29.9

Owen in the case of Bret, he lost the brother. And it was a very emotional thing. And we

0:35.4

have seen a lot of emotional tributes over the years on wrestling shows to wrestlers that

0:40.9

had passed away, unfortunately. Tonight was one of those nights where it almost doesn't

0:48.6

even matter what else happened on the show. And there was a lot that went on tonight

1:33.8

Is he going to be ready? It's only been a week basically since it happened. Some people might

1:41.4

look at it as a form of therapy to get out there and get back into things. And in the case of

1:46.2

Bret, like I said, it took many months before we saw him back on TV before he was back in the ring

1:51.0

after what happened to his brother. But it's hard to wrap your head around the fact that eight

1:57.7

days ago, Jay Briscoe was still with us. And today would have been his 39th birthday.

2:04.7

And so his brother wanted to go out there tonight and have a match in honor of his brother

2:12.6

when four days from now, his brother is going to be laid to rest. The services for Jay Briscoe
