Mark Briscoe took issue with a tweet from WWE on FOX referring to Bobby Lashley and The Street Profits as “Dem Boyz,” a phrase used to refer to the Briscoes in Ring of Honor.
Mark stated that whoever posted the tweet should “be fired” or “need the taste slapped out of their mouth for lack of reverence.”
This caused some fans to rally to get the unknown person fired, while others mocked The Briscoes.
Mark later backed off, noting that he was dealing with grief and didn’t mean what he said.
He wrote, “Oh yea, thatsss why I quit posting on Twitter lol. Just logged back on…woww. Some of y’all are wild lol. I just miss my brother, that’s all, and I got a little in my feelings when I seen the Fox post. @tripleh, you ain’t gotta fire nobody, times is tough. Love y’all..take it light people. #DemBoysForever”
