AEW/ROH star Shane Taylor recently appeared on the AEW Unrestricted podcast, where he talked about a number of topics including working with Jay Briscoe in ROH.
Taylor said, โJay Briscoe demands a level of respect and a level of energy and a level of fight in you that most people canโt bring out of you. Itโs a level most people donโt even haveโฆ Anything less than [your best] and youโre getting put down and he will not hesitate. He may even like you. The fact that he likes you means that heโs going to respect you enough to beat your ass efficiently.โ
On having to be at the top of your game against Briscoe:
โEven if you came in ready, heโs was probably still gonna beat your ass. Thereโs no half-stepping with Jay Briscoe. It brought a level of comfort, it brought a level of excitement, it brought a level of energy and passion from me that very few people get to bring out of me.โ
