Rejected Takeoff

Have been looking at several Boeing QRH's recently re the RTO manoeuvre. There appears to be a major difference in the order of selecting "speedbrake up".

Some QRH's suggest ....close thrust levers, disconnect autothrottle, select speedbrake up...

Others suggest...close thrust levers, disengage autothrottle, apply maximum manual wheelbrakes or verify operation of RTO autobrakes. Raise speedbrake....

Any comments or links to articles re this topic most appreciated. Why does your company recommend one action before the other ??
