On this episode of the podcast, Seth and Josh start the show talking about the tragic, life-altering event that befell Jamin Pugh (aka Jay Briscoe), and his family. Our thoughts at The Wrestling Brethren Podcast are with the Pugh family and their community at this time. Afterwards, the discussion shifts to assessing the first six months of the Triple H regime as the Chief Content Officer of World Wrestling Entertainment. (Per the WWE Corporate Website) As Chief Content Officer, Paul Levesque oversees the Company’s Creative Writing, Talent Relations, Live Events, Talent Development and Creative Services departments.
