ROH World TV Champion and AEW TNT Champion Samoa Joe recently appeared on “The Sessions” podcast with Renee Paquette to speak about a number of topics such as how the biggest memory they have of the late great Jay Briscoe is that he always unconditionally loved people and it didn’t matter who that person was.
Samoa Joe said:
“I think the biggest memory of Jay (Briscoe) and like I said, why a lot of us were really floored by this is that Jay was a guy who unconditionally loved people. He’d come in and it didn’t matter if you were having a good day or a bad day, he was always there to be like, ‘Hey! How you doing man?’ And you know, dap you up, give you a hug. You shoot the bull with him down at the chicken farm which always is wild stories, you know what I mean? ‘What’s been going down at the farm?’ ‘Aw man.’”
Samoa Joe also spoke about how losing Jay Briscoe hit a lot of people because he was so authentic.
Samoa Joe said:
“I think that was the biggest thing was, you know, Jay was extremely authentic. We’re all gonna miss him just because the fun, the hilarity, the good times after the show, the great matches. It’s just all that kind of goes away and it leaves a big void and I think that’s why it hit a lot of people so hard.”
