Mark Pugh (born January 18, 1985) is an American professional wrestler best known as Mark Briscoe. He is signed to All Elite Wrestling (AEW) and Ring of Honor (ROH), the latter promotion being where he made a name teaming with his brother Jay as the Briscoe Brothers.[3] In ROH, he is the ROH World Champion in his first reign. He held the ROH World Tag Team Championship with his brother Jay Briscoe a record 13 times, and was one third of the ROH World Six-Man Tag Team Champions with Jay and Bully Ray. In January 2022, the Briscoe Brothers were honored as inaugural inductees into the ROH Hall of Fame.

He and Jay are also former Impact (now TNA) World Tag Team Champions, and have wrestled in Japan, working for New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW), where they held the IWGP Tag Team Championship once, and the NEVER Openweight 6-Man Tag Team Championship twice (along with Toru Yano), and Pro Wrestling Noah, where they were GHC Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Champions.

All totaled between ROH, TNA, NJPW and Noah, Mark Briscoe has held 20 championships, all but one (the ROH World Championship) being shared with Jay in either a traditional or six-man tag team.
