WOR: Dave Meltzer has been told that WBD still does not want Mark Briscoe on their television.

wtf did Mark do though?

What a way to kick a man when he’s down.

There's gotta be like one executive that has a weird fucking vendetta against them for some unknown reason.

Makes zero sense.

It was 1 tweet made over 10 YEARS ago, WHAT THE HELL WBD!?! You cant expect someone to grow as a person when you don't let them you bungholes!

I wouldn’t be shocked if this is true but consider the source.

Meltzer would report it as gospel if he got an email from [email protected] telling him this.

They had no problem with the bank addicted drug robber, Darby "I showed tiny some texts" Allin, and Sammy "I wanna rape sasha" but apparently they know enough about an obscure wrestler to ban him. Yeah sure

Guilt by association. Gotta love the weird Woke cultists.

Completely ridiculous and guilt by association, even though there isn't much Jay was guilty of since he'd made amends for his mistake over and over.

Mark as a solo act would have a limited ceiling in AEW, but even as a midcarder under a real contract (their ROH deal can't be very lucrative compared to full AEW deals), it'd be job security and a chance to do what he and his brother never did, feature on a proper national TV show.

I don't expect TK to kick up a fuss because of his relationship with WBD, which he's been careful of to the extent that he refused to shop ROH to any non-WBD companies. Clearly expecting/hoping for some kind of improved TV deal next time.

It's rarely mentioned (except by me, it seems), but Scorpio Sky made the same mistake as Jay years ago and I assume everyone is aware of it, yet he not only has been a featured performer for AEW, but held two of their titles. And no mention of WBD being bothered.

This is starting to piss me off. That being said, it was obvious this extended to Mark or they probably would've had Mark on AEW TV to build the FTR matches

I don't believe it's the real reason, it doesn't pass the logic test for me.

There has to be another reason for the decision.

Look, we can talk openly about this.

His brother should have long since been forgiven for whatever stupid tweet he sent out a decade ago. Everybody should have moved on. Unfortunately, modern woke culture, which a lot of you people applaud, demands that you be crucified for any mistake you've ever made in your life. What's worse, Mark was part of a tag team and is now infinitely less marketable as an individual. Put it all together, and it's not completely outrageous that network folks wouldn't be interested.

It isn't just the woke nature of this. The inconsistency is the real issue. They aired a slap fight show that is owned by a man who bitch slapped his wife on camera. That wasn't the line for them, but a 10 year old tweet is? Very confusing. Jay and Mark were always going to be linked, so I am not shocked that WBD is holding firm on this.

Make sure to tune into two girls slapping eachother giving them life altering injuries immediately following dynamite!

Not a chance. Brothers don’t snake brothers, especially when they’re as close as you’d imagine Jay & Mark were. Such a poor comment.

Only shit cunts dog their flesh and blood. Mark hopping on AEW while Jay alive is my definition of a dog cunt.

im starting to think it has to do also with the rebel flag
