Jay Briscoe's level of intellect

Post by supersonic »

Is it a work or a shoot that he has the intellect level of a lowest common denominator penitentiary resident?

It's a work I believe. Mark casually said on an episode of Colts podcast that Jay has an IQ of 138. The ROH locker room all took IQ tests and the only person to score higher was Bryan Danielson with 141.

Observer:
A fluke mention by Kevin Kelly on the 1/5 New Japan New Year’s Dash show on New Japan World is really a key in what sets the wheels in motion on this. Kelly remarked the main event of that show, during the Briscoes match, that they did an IQ test of the entire ROH locker room many years back, and that Danielson scored the highest. The reference was made when Matt Striker actually was making a joke about what you would figure Mark Briscoe’s IQ was. Striker in making the joke, clearly thinking what most would think about Mark Briscoe based on his character. Kelly responded that Mark Briscoe actually had the third highest IQ in the promotion at the time, noting it was behind only Danielson and Nigel McGuinness. Essentially that line set the wheels in motion about a week later that led to Danielson finding out about this testing, which has just started to be used in some MMA circles. It was demonstrated that same weekend on the Inside MMA television show where Al Iaquinta was shown being examined, and the Ray Longo/Chris Weidman camp were the first team to use it to see if fighters were truly ready to return to hard sparring after a fight or knockout.

Does this weird-ass thread have anything to do with some breaking story?

Something that might somehow salvage that off-color comment about convicts?
