During the Jay Briscoe tribute show, Jay Lethal squared off against Mark Briscoe in the main event. Lethal was a guest on Talk is Jericho and explained how the match came to be.

“The true story is I questioned one of Mark Briscoe’s friends, Jeff Jones, and I said, ‘Hey, I haven’t really talked to Mark because every time I talk to him, he’s super strong and not really showing emotions,” Lethal said (per Wrestling Inc). “‘Do you think this is going to be it for Mark?’”

Lethal then stated, “‘Not only would he love to wrestle, but he’d love to try and get on this Wednesday.’ I said, ‘Wait, what? Hold on, let me call you back.’ So then I call Sonjay [Dutt] and I’m like, ‘Hey, if there’s any chance of Mark even being there, can I please, please do something with him?’ He goes, ‘Well, let me ask.’ He texted me: ‘I think it’s a possibility.’”
