All right, welcome to talk is Jericho. It's the plot of Thunder and Rock and Roll. And we recently lost a really great wrestler and an even better guy,

Jay Mimpu, better known as Jay Briscoe, one half of one of the best tag teams in wrestling history. The Briscoe brothers with his real life brother, Mark, Jay was killed in a car accident on January 17th, just minutes away from his home in Laurel, Delaware, his two young daughters suffered serious injuries in the crash.

The girls are getting better, but they have a long physical recovery ahead of them. And if you'd like to help them in their mom, Ashley, you can donate to their Give Send Go fund. Give Send Go dot com slash Pew Love. That's P-U-G-H-L-O-V-E.

Now, I never got the chance to really get to know Jay or Mark very well. I never got to work with either one of them in the ring. Since as you're about to hear, they are extremely loyal to Ring of Honor and wrestled basically for Ring of Honor, the majority of their career. They were the Ring of Honor World Tag Team Champions, 13 times including the current R-R-H World Champions.

But the Briscoes have a lot of close friends in AW. So I got together with some of them and did this tribute to Jay. To remember the great friend, family man and wrestler that he was. We got Matt Nick Jackson, the young bucks, Hangman, Adam Page, Adam Cole, Samoa Joe, Sanjay, that Christopher Daniels, and Jay Lethal, who wrestled Mark Briscoe in a very emotional match just a few weeks ago in honor of Jay.

All these guys share the memories and stories with their friend, Jay Briscoe. And I was at Jay's funeral service this past weekend in Laurel, Delaware.

It was in the high school gymnasium that was named after his grandfather. I believe the bill, Pugemnasia, the place is completely packed. And what a great, great eulogy from Mark Briscoe and from Big Man, the Briscoes' father.

Chris Coleman did a great one as well. It was just good to see some old friends, Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens, AJ Styles, as well as Tony Khan and Britt Baker, Adam Cole, Jay Lethal.

Eddie Kingston, Jimmy Jacobs, all the cats. It was great to get a chance to see them in fellowship. But just remember Jay, and if you feel sad about Jay, just know this. He had pure conviction as family, pure conviction that he is in a better place. He is now with God.

And as Mark Briscoe said in his eulogy, God said that Jay is on the throne. God told him, I said, Jay is all good and you just got to carry on. That's what Mark Briscoe is going to do. That's what all the rest of us are going to do.

If you want to go watch Jay's funeral service, it is on YouTube. It's worth watching just for Mark Briscoe's eulogy alone. It will make you laugh and it will make you cry literally.

Hopefully you will get the same from some of Jay's closest friends here. As we remember, the late great Jay Briscoe, Jayman Pugh, right here on Talk is Jericho. Rest in peace, Jay. God bless you and your family.

I know you are sitting on God's throne and we will get a chance to see you very soon.

Alright, so obviously two guys that knew the Briscoe is very well. It's Matt and Nick Jackson, the box. And you were saying that the Briscoe might be your best opponent ever.

Yeah, definitely up there. I think for sure that they were the, we wrestled in the most of our career. I would have to ask someone who's great at stats, as a fellow.

Yeah, he would probably actually know. Yeah, we should ask him, but I'm pretty sure they were the number one team. My God, we went to war with them so many times.

So many times we've started wrestling them. What was it? I think I looked it up the other is oh nine in Dayton, Ohio. I remember they announced it was like a big deal. It's like, oh my gosh, the brother team is finally going to wrestle.

We were excited, but we were kind of nervous because we've been watching tapes of them from way back when for so long. We were like so intimidated.

I was only like 18 to the time to make a child.

Yeah, I was doing some addition and subtraction of the head so that would be that that Jay and Mark are probably 25 and 24 or something. Yeah, probably around that.

And such similarities between the two you guys we talked about last week with two brothers teaming and one's a little bit younger but not too much.

And one's a very important gimmick. Oh my God, yeah. We were so intimidated terrifying, like even to the last time we wrestled them, which we have a story about that too.
