What AEW reportedly wanted to do with the Briscoe Brothers at All Out 2022
As previously noted, WarnerMedia was reportedly against the idea of the Briscoe Brothers appearing on TBS or TNT due to homophobic comments made by Jay in the past.
Prior to Jay’s death, AEW President Tony Khan reportedly made attempts to bring the team to AEW television. Dave Meltzer of F4WOnline.com noted that the Briscoes were actually flown to events but ultimately weren’t able to be used. Meltzer wrote the following about what Khan wanted to do with the Briscoes at the 2022 All Out PPV…
“There were plans for them on the 9/4 All Out show in Chicago, to be in a six-man tag with FTR & Wardlow vs. The Briscoes & Jay Lethal. But without being able to promote it on television and because the broadcast partners didn’t want them on AEW broadcasts, the decision was made to bring the Motor City Machine Guns in out of nowhere to team with Lethal.”
