The year was 2016, and the setting was a laundry room at Sam’s Town Live in Las Vegas.
New Japan star Rocky Romero was my first interview. When we finished, he asked, “Have you ever spoken with the Briscoes before?” Jay articulated the evolution of the Briscoe Brothers, which saw the pair attempt to play characters before returning to their natural personalities.

“I remember getting to the building on that very first night, not knowing what we were going to get, and they couldn’t have been cooler. We all hit it off. That is my first memory of them. They were so giving and willing to make the match work. Because of that, we became Ring of Honor mainstays.”
