Don'𒅌t expect to see the Briscoes in AEW, at least if word at WarnerMedia and among AEW talent is true.
Fightful has been told that as of prior to the ROH sale, The Briscoes weren't planned to be signed by All Elite Wrestling. It should be stated that we're not even sure of the interest on All Elite Wrestling's part, but if was confirmed to us by WarnerMedia sources that a person of influence in the company did not want the duo signed to AEW, specifically due to Jay Briscoe's homophobic tweets from 2013. Briscoe would apologize at the start of an ROH show the week after. Those that we heard from in ROH since have said that to their credit, they hadn't caused issues for the company since then. One AEW ta🐲lent said they were made for television, but can't blame WarnerMedia or AEW.
We aren't sure if The Briscoes will be a part of the new Ring of Honor, which is owned by Khan. They're the current ROH World Tag Team Champions, and were scheduled to wrestle on Supercard of Honor𓂃 before Tony Khan's purchase. We don't have an update on where that stands now.
