FTR vs The Briscoes

["Sweet & Sour" ImSoFudginGreat]

Just seen on Twitter a reply promo from FTR to Jay & Mark saying (in summary) “we came to your house and beat you up, now come to ours, we dare you”.

So, if/when do you think this is going to happen? Will it happen or is it all talk? Or, will it end up in another company such as GCW? I want to say next weeks Dynamite isn’t a million miles away from where The Briscoes are based (my US geography is terrible though) so could it happen there?

Yeah FTR v Lee and Brock next week is a bit of a nothing match so I wonder if this is just setting up for the Briscoes to debut next week

I did think that apart from the Arn/Tully connection it was a flimsy set up. It’d definitely be a good lead in.

Probably didnt wanna overshadow Brody's debut tonight

Debuting them in DC is a good idea, it's closer to where they're really known being ROH heart and souls.

The Briscoes are in Delaware, so DC is a short trip for them. Plus they were attacked by FTR at Final Battle, which was over a month ago, so they should get some retaliation soon.

Also, if the Briscoes do appear in AEW, that would mean the tag champions from four notable outside promotions would be active for the company:

AAA – FTR
GCW & ROH – Briscoes
PWG – Kings of the Black Throne

Hopefully never. Nobody needs homophobic Rednecks in Wrestling. It is 2022.

Absolutely, and I'd agree with you maybe like two years ago... but given the stuff EFFY himself and others have said about how they've grown as men in the years since Jay's Tweet and they've supported LGBTQ people in the community since, far as I see it we wouldn't see that in 2022.

And I can't stress this enough, it was Jay's tweet, Mark never even did or said anything, not that I ever saw. But if EFFY, the most outwardly LGBT wrestler maybe in the entire scene right now is vouching for them, I think holding that shit from years ago against them is lame at this point. 

There are certain things imo wrestlers can't ever come back from, this shouldn't be one of them imo. People imo are allowed to change for the better and overcome past ignorance.

On a lighter note, it would be fitting if The Briscoe's, the team who uses "Gimme back my Bullets" as a theme, debuted to save the man with the Glock, Arn Anderson

I learned something today. I honestly dropped them right of my radar, after that tweet back then. But far be it from me to deny someone a chance of redemption. If they have grown, I will see what they bring to the table.

Yeah Ian himself vouched for their growth on our very own ROH fan thread, soon after when EFFY was questioned working the same show as them, he put it to rest and said they've grown a lot and they ask the right questions, very eager to learn.

I trust the people around them, I dropped them after that stuff too for a long while, so it was refreshing to hear that out of all the dumbass and horror stories in wrestling, the Briscoes, namely Jay, decided to avoid being one, hope they keep it up!

I am really looking forward to the next Dynamite!
