AEW President Tony Khan broke the news that wrestling star Jay Briscoe, unfortunately, passed away at 38. He appeared in multiple wrestling promotions but made waves in Ring of Honor, winning numerous championships.
Most importantly, his partnership with brother Mark Briscoe highlighted his time in ROH. They were collectively known as Dem Boys and also The Briscoe Brothers. Together, they captured the promotion's world tag team championship several times. The duo faced the likes of Rock 'n' Roll Express, FTR, The Good Brothers, and more.
Given his close relationship with his brother and how both of them played an essential role in their lives and careers, it's fitting that Jay's final tweet was a photo with his brother Mark.

Jay never wrestled in the Stamford-based promotion, but he has shared the ring with some of its top stars. The former ROH star's contributions to the industry were widely praised, and WWE too paid tribute to him during an NXT show.
One of the top WWE talent who paid their respects to the ROH legend was RAW Superstar Seth Rollins. In a tweet, The Visionary recalled his experience sharing the ring with Jay Briscoe and how the former champion helped Rollins shape the character he portrays today.
"Being in the ring with Jay Briscoe got me my first ROH contract. He and Mark being so selfless helped Jimmy and I find our footing as AOTF. Without him, I don’t know if Tyler Black could ever have been Seth Rollins," wrote Rollins.
Jay's passing is undoubtedly one that impacted his loved ones and multiple people from the wrestling world. Still, his accomplishments and performances will keep his legacy alive.
