Matthew and Nicholas Jackson detail AEW’s signature match
Last night was a particularly emotional one for Matt and Nick–ahem, Matthew and Nicholas–Jackson. They were overcome with memories of a friend, one taken far too soon–Jay Briscoe.
“We wrestled The Briscoes so many times,” said Nick Jackson. “It felt really good to wrestle Mark. When he was hitting those Jay Drillers on all of us, I knew Jay was smiling. I was feeling pain by then, but I still kind of smiled a bit during that moment.”A year-and-a-half ago, Jay Briscoe lost his life in a car crash. For the Bucks, they could feel the spirit of their friend as his brother Mark tore them apart.
Hours after the match, as Matt settled into his hotel room, a sobering reality stung him far harder than anything he was hit with at Blood & Guts. That was the reminder he’ll never share another moment with Jay, which brought him to tears. “This match definitely felt fresh with so many different players in it,” said Matt. “Team AEW was a group of various styles, so I think it made the match more interesting. And with the addition this year to our team of the best big match wrestler in history–Kazuchika Okada–and the unpredictable Scapegoat Jack Perry, The Elite was much more versatile. Because of multiple moving parts, intangibles, and injuries, the build wasn’t what we had planned, but I think we still made this one work.
“Darby is out of his mind crazy,” said Matt. “When production lowered the cages down earlier in the day to look over everything, I heard Darby climbed to the top while he was wearing socks. He’s fearless. We’ve done some crazy things in our career, and even he frightens us.”The Bucks–who are AEW EVPs–are also the reigning tag team champions. They continued their feud with The Acclaimed, even temporarily silencing Caster by superkicking his mouth when it was stuffed with thumbtacks.
Blood & Guts is destined to be violent because there are no pin falls or submission. Since the structure of the match is designed for the losing team to quit, it further increases the amount of outrageous, dangerous spots.
