Former pro wrestler Jay Briscoe killed in crash on Delaware highway

The pro wrestler known as Jay Briscoe — best known as one half of the foul-mouthed “Briscoe Brothers” tag team — was killed in head-on highway crash in Delaware, officials said Wednesday.

The performer, whose real name was Jamin Pugh, was driving east on Laurel Road in a Chevrolet Silverado 2500 at 5:09 p.m. ET Tuesday when a westbound Chevrolet Silverado 1500 “crossed the center lane” and came “directly into the path” of eastbound traffic, state police said.
