One of them grabbed the pride flag out of the crowd tonight to choke their opponent.
Sorry but f*** them. They're not heels they're just shit human beings.

Didn't one of them make some homophobic comments on Twitter a few years ago? Yeah, i guess they're trying to make it their gimmick but f*** them. In Manchester, basically the gay capital of England, they pull that shit. Sections of the crowd left for their match, others turned their backs, EVERYONE joined in a "f*** YOU BRISCOES" chant. The sad thing is I bet they think they're being good heels. This is the wrong city to pull that shit. I'm actually disappointed in Trent Seven for booking them, and I'll never go to a show they're booked on again. Sorry but obviously this effected me. I go to wrestling for an escape, I don't go so my sexuality can be a cheap heel spot.

I've had my issues with Jay due to his anti-gay comments, guessing he was the one that did the act.

It's not really a "work" for them.

Just seeing the aftermath and my friend telling me what I missed was enough though. Hell. I'm bisexual so I have it fairly f***ing Easy, but this is Manchester, there would have been a good amount of gay, bi, trans there.. Just because that's the city we are, and proud of it.

It's amazingly short sighted though. On the same show where Meiko Satumura got a deserved heroes welcome as the first ever female World Champion.. They book the f***ing Briscoes.

I understand some impulse to sweep this under "heels being heels" but given their past, Jay in particular, it's hard to believe they saw the flag and just decided to do something to get cheap heat. They very likely saw that flag and hated it and wanted to mess with it.

Not "teach kids that we're evolved from monkeys and I'll shoot you" like Jay but still

The Briscoes can forever go f*** themselves. I am glad I decided to hate them during the AotF storyline, and solidly was proven right in it.
Seriously, f*** them.

I'm heading to Birmingham today where they'll be in one tournament match, maybe two. I expect nuclear heat the way the last two nights have gone.

Jay is human garbage, but it's not exactly news. He's going to end up as one if those guys who's working indies in his fifties, blaming others for his career not reaching the same heights as his former Indy peers.
