Why The Briscoe Brothers Aren’t Signing with WWE
As noted, WWE did make an offer to Ring of Honor tag team The Briscoes, but the brothers ended up staying with Ring of Honor.
According to F4WOnline.com, the counter offer made to The Briscoes by ROH was much better than the offer made by WWE. When The Briscoes went back to WWE to get a better offer, WWE wouldn’t budge on the initial offer, so the brothers re-signed with ROH.
Uhaa Nation Reveals Advice He Got From Kevin Owens & Finn Balor
Scott Fishman of The Miami Herald recently interviewed new NXT recruit Uhaa Nation, and Nation had the following to say regarding advice he received leading up to his WWE signing:
“Kevin Owens was one of the guys I talked to leading up to this process. There was also Finn Bálor and Chris Masters, who I became friends with doing work in England. Just talking to them about not just the tryout, but being a part of the roster. Things you had to do to get here. One of the recent conversations was with Kevin Owens because he did one not too long before mine. A good friend of mine, Ricochet, offered advice as well. Kevin and others just told me to be myself and work hard, help other guys, be a leader and things of that nature. It was good to get to talk to them and see how they felt about the tryouts and being here. These were guys who have been on the indies for years and made that transition. In my mind, they made it possible for me to make that transition as well.”
Nick was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, and lived there until the age of 18, when he decided to pack his flack jacket and move to New York City.
