He's In: Reigning Champion Officially Signs With AEW

Welcome to the team. AEW has built up a varied roster over the years, with several wrestlers who have been brought together from around the world. You get to see all kinds of wrestlers who you might have seen before but not always on this size of a stage. Now AEW has officially brought in another star, who has been around for a very long time but in a bit of a different way.

AEW has announced that Mark Briscoe has officially signed with the company. Briscoe, one half of the reigning Ring Of Honor Tag Team Champions, made his AEW debut last month in a tribute match against Jay Lethal in tribute to his recently departed brother Jay. This week’s edition of Dynamite saw Mark defeat Josh Woods in his first traditional match on AEW television.

It took some time. Check out some of the Briscoes’ better days:

Opinion: This is something that is long overdue and while it would have been better to have both of the Briscoes in AEW, it is great to have at least one of them. The team was one of the best of its era and while that can’t be recreated, Mark being out there every week and getting to showcase his own skills is something that should be good for everyone involved.
