WWE Passes On Offering Briscoes A Deal

[Josh...]

As noted earlier, The Briscoes are expected to stay with ROH. Triple H passed on offering them a deal after becoming aware of the homophobic slurs they had made on social media in the past. WWE Senior Director of Talent Development Canyon Cemen had been the one communicating with the Briscoes, and recommended that WWE pass on them.

Ring of Honor recently made an offer to the Briscoes that included more money. Word is that the new offer is a two year deal. I also heard that at one point there was talk of the offer including a deal to have Jay Briscoe taking the reigns as booker, although I'm not sure if the final contract has the booker provision or if Jay is even interested in it. A similar deal had also been pitched to Adam Cole, who also has a contract expiring. It should be noted that current ROH booker Hunter Johnston (Delirious) has indicated that he is not going anywhere.

Aww .. Oh well good to see they'll be keeping up their stuff in ROH I suppose, 2 yrs is a decently long time I hope ROH uses that time wisely with the Briscoes.

The Briscoe Brothers have been with Ring of Honor "since day one," and now, ROH can confirm that the Briscoes are here to stay!

Jay and Mark have nearly thirty years of combined experience between the ropes , have traveled the world, and have earned many championships along the way. Jay Briscoe is in the midst of an incredible second run as World Champion, a feat accomplished by only two men in the entire history of ROH, and together, the Briscoes hold the record for ROH Tag Team Championships with eight amazing reigns.

The Briscoes built their legacies in Ring of Honor and for Dem Boys from Sandy Fork, there's no place like home...and no place like Ring of Honor.
