Horrible news as following a car accident, Jay Briscoe is dead at only 38 years old. Already tributes from wrestlers are pouring-in.
Jay Briscoe Dead At 38 Years Old
We hate to report this news, which is just coming in. Jay Briscoe, a legend as part of the Brisco Brothers, has passed away.
He was only 38 years old.
Tony Khan broke the absolutely sad news about his passing.
“Sadly, Jamin Pugh has passed away. Known to fans as Jay Briscoe, he was a star in ROH for over 20 years, from the first show until today. Jay and his brother Mark dominated ROH, reigning as champions to this day. We’ll do whatever we can to support his family. Rest In Peace Jamin”
Mike Johnson of PW Insider reports the cause of death was a car accident. As of now, very few details are known.
Johnson tweeted, “Briscoe passed away several hours ago in what we have heard was a ‘car accident’, although obviously details are very very preliminary as of this writing.”
For 20 years, Jay Briscoe was a fixture in Ring of Honor (ROH). He just started his thirteenth tag team title run, is a two time ROH World Champion and ROH Six Man tag champion.

Him and his brother were the only wrestlers under contract to ROH. They will go down as one of the most popular teams around the world.
He worked basically everywhere, minus WWE and AEW. WCW was before their time.
They won gold in many promotions. And, many were from top companies around the world.
Such as: Combat Zone Wrestling, Game Changer Wrestling, Impact Wrestling, Jersey All-Pro Wrestling, New Japan Pro-Wrestling and National Wrestling Alliance. What a team those brothers were, entertaining fans everywhere.
From everyone at Wrestle Newz, we hate to report such horrible news. For now, we send our thoughts to Jay Briscoe’s family and friends during this terrible time.
Just awful news and this is beyond painful. Just, so sad at 38 years old.

Jay Briscoe was one of the toughest men I ever had the privilege of sharing a ring with, as well as being a tremendous brother, father, and man. I’m so happy to have had the opportunity to know him and wrestle him as often as I did. Rest in Peace, Jay, I love you.#RIPJayBriscoe pic.twitter.com/6ZxNfgPcmw

I cannot even begin to process this right now. I loved everything about my friend Jay Briscoe. His passion. His drive. His presence. Our wars in the ring. Most importantly, how much he loved his family. I am literally sick to my stomach… pic.twitter.com/XNK5ZHlqxu

I am incredibly sad and heartbroken over the loss of Jay Briscoe. Words can not describe the kindness that he and his family has shown mine. Jay was one of the toughest men I have ever met but he had a way of making everyone feel special that got to work with him. @jaybriscoe84

One of the first faces to greet me & make me feel welcomed on my first day of ROH was Jay Briscoe.
My heart hurts for his brother, his wife, his children and all those who loved him ♥️ I am thankful I was able to know you Jay… If only briefly.— CHELSEA GREEN (@ImChelseaGreen) January 18, 2023
Devastating news. My heart breaks for Jay Briscoe’s family.

One of the nicest, funniest, genuine and talented men I’ve ever met.
All we ever talked about was our families.
