ROH World Champion Jay Briscoe and his brother Mark have been in negotiations with with both ROH and WWE for some time now and it’s now looking like they’ll will be staying in Ring of Honor.
The Briscoes recently received offers from both companies and were giving strong consideration to jumping to WWE/NXT. According to Dave Meltzer on Wrestling Observer Radio, Ring of Honor recently increased their offer – which led to the Briscoes contacting WWE again to see if they’d match it. WWE was reportedly not going to budge from their initial offer.
Another factor in their decision is that the Briscoes run farming businesses based out of Delaware, which they’re able to do since they only work 5-6 ROH dates per month. Signing with WWE would only be worthwhile if they were able to make more than their current income from ROH, independent appearances and farming.
