Hey Dames, just a question. Do you have any idea on how to improve WCW's production quality of Superstars in EWR 1996? No matter how hard I try with WCW, the Turner networks are constantly unhappy with WCW. What do I do?

I have a distinct feeling that WWE has now began a major crackdown on YouTube.

Now, I've never been brave enough to even bring myself to watch those Freddy Krueger movies. But, to those here who have seen them, I say, share them here. I have watched one brief scene from one of those Nightmare movies. The scene where this teenage guy was falling with a parachute until Freddy cut him off, and he fell onto a bed of spikes, and then Freddy devoured his soul. What are your favorite NOES moments?

I got the 1996 version, and it's da bomb, IMO.

What about Pillman's Respect Strap Match against The Taskmaster from SuperBrawl 6? The "I Respect You, Bookerman" promo had better be featured on the DVD.

It's only RUMORED, guys. I say we should wait until we get the actual CONFIRMED DVD line-up for Brian Pillman.

Brian Pillman stood behind a podium at the WWF HQ in Titan Towers. He was on crutches, because he had just survived a car accident that nearly took his life. He had just signed a 3-year contract with the World Wrestling Federation. Members of the local media & press were on hand to cover this event. Brian Pillman:I want to thank everyone for being here. I'm normally not this choked up, but the events of the past 8 weeks have changed the future of my life to the point where I didn't know whether I was going to live, or not-to be standing here, signing a contract for the World Wrestling Federation. It's a dream come true. It's an opprotunity that very few athletes get, and I'd like to thank JJ Dillion & Gorilla Monsoon, and the rest of my now extended family. Thank you very much. Dok Hendrix goes to interview Brian as everyone is clapping. Brian Pillman:SHUT THE HELL UP! Yeah, I'm talking to you, bozo. Dok Hendrix:I'll be more than glad to walk around... Brian Pillman:Just get over here! Do what I say, you're the prop, here! I'm the star! The lastest WWF superstar...it's all official...the formalities are out of the way. So, let's just cut to the chase, Mr. President Monsoon. What did they make you the president of, the good ol' boys network, as well? Gorilla Monsoon:I think this contract signing is officially over. Brian Pillman:I think you need to back up! Gorilla Monsoon:What? Brian Pillman:What, are you a big bully, too? You gonna beat up a cripple? A helpless invalid? Gorilla Monsoon:You got one leg, now. You wanna try it with none? Brian Pillman:Go ahead! Why don't you sit down? I think this now BRIAN F**KIN' PILLMAN'S PRESS CONERENCE, AND WE'RE REALLY GONNA FIND OUT WHY ALL YOU YES MEN...WHAT ALL YOU OBSEQUIOUS LAPDOGS THAT ARE TELLING MONSOON, AND JJ DILLON WHAT THEY WANT TO HEAR, WHEN THEY WANT TO HEAR IT! Well, ladies & gentlemen, the "Loose Cannon" is here, at your disposal. So, go ahead. You want the truth? Ask away! Reporter:Mr. Pillman... Brian Pillman:Yes. Right. Good story. Mr. Pillman. Reporter:Brian, why the sudden change of character? I don't understand. What's going on? Brian Pillman:You don't get it, you're just a dumb reporter. All you do is distort the facts, ruin people's lives, each and everyday on the front page, and you don't get it, do you? I don't get you. What's your motivation? Dok Hendrix:Let me ask you this. Obviously you have a hidden agenda, here... Brian Pillman:I DON'T HAVE AN AGENDA! Dok Hendrix:So, why don't you just cut to the chase, and tell us your hidden agenda? Brian Pillman:I'm here to kick ass! That's what Brian Pillman does each and everyday of the week. I don't have a hidden agenda like yourself. I don't have to make somebody in the north suite happy. I do what's best for my success. That's what's made me the greatest athlete that's ever graced the face of this sport. My record speaks for itself. Another question. Reporter:Mr. Pillman, do you think your track record, internationally would make you a liability to the World Wrestling Federation? Brian Pillman:LIABILITY??? MY TRACK RECORD, AND MY MARQUE NAME VALUE IS GONNA, MR. SUIT, RATINGS!!! IT'S GONNA LINE YOUR POCKETS WITH GOLD...because I'm a star, and people want to be as close to me as possible. Reporter:Mr. Pillman... Brian Pillman:It figures we had too hear from a feminist, sooner or later...don't get hysterical on me! Reporter:AS a "dumb reporter, sir, using your words, if we were to write a headline, tommorrw, how would you like to see that headline written? Brian Pillman:Brian Pillman, the greatest. I think that pretty much sums it up. Reporter:In your book, sir... Brian Pillman:You can go across the board, ma'am. There's no weaknesses, here. Reporter:I'm not so sure of that. Brian Pillman:Well, why don't you address them now, if you're not so sure? Or are you going to have to go back to your little library, and get on your laptop, and find some little glitch along the lines? Speak up, NOW! Reporter:I think you've given me plenty, sir. Thank you. Reporter:How do you see yourself presented on merchandise? Brian Pillman:Any way I want to. Any piece of memorabilia, merchandise...whether it's a towel, or a coat rack with my name, my legacy, my heritage is gonna sell. And that's why I'm here, let's face it. This relationship was forged on greed. I went to the highest bidder. I WAS THE HOTTEST FREE AGENT ON THE MARKET IN THE HISTORY OF THIS SPORT! Believe me, I took advantage of that leverage. I'm here to aggrandize my wealth. The WWF obviously has me to shoot their ratings through the roof. Dok Hendrix:Well Brian, let me ask you... Brian Pillman: DON"T INTERRUPT ME, HENDRIX! You're not dealing with a lowlife like Pettengill that you can walk all over...you can talk, now. Dok Hendrix:Thank you so much. I do know your past history. Don't you think you're putting the cart before the horse, here, considering you are not 100% rehabilitated, and you have yet to step into a ring with any WWF superstar? Brian Pillman:Well, people think I'm conceited. I'm just convinced, Mr. Hendrix. I'M THAT GOOD. ANYBODY ELSE WITH THIS INJURY WOULD STILL BE IN A HOSPITAL BED WITH IV'S STICKING OUT 'EM, WAITING FOR THE NURSE TO CHANGE THEIR BEDPAN! I DON'T GIVE A GODDAMN WHAT THE HELL YOU THINK! YOU, AND YOUR WWF SUPERSTARS...YOU GET ME A MEDICAL RELEASE, RIGHT NOW, AND I'LL GET OUT THERE WITH YOUR WWF SUPERSTARS...I'LL SHOW 'EM WHERE IT'S AT! Dok Hendrix:Just take it easy. What's your problem? I mean, a guy that just lived through an accident... Brian Pillman:My problem is, I'm a guy whose lifelong dream was reaching a higher lever of mediocrity, trying to question a legacy of greatness. You can check my track record, from an All American NFL, to walking up, and down the roads of this sport...winning achievements. Dok Hendrix:I just don't understand a man as fortunate enough as you, living through an accident, and being so bitter. Brian Pillman:I'm not bitter, I'm blessed. There is a reason why I'm here. There is a reason I didn't go down in the flames of that car wreckage...and now, I'm here to sieze it, Any more questions? Dok Hendrix:What might be your goals, here in the WWF? Brian Pillman:What are my goals? I go to the top, wherever I go. That means, I'm going to be wearing the World Wrestling Federation Championship around my waist, unless the political hierarchy decides to subjugate me to their censorship which... Gorilla Monsoon:Well, you made alot of friends, here today, didn't you? Brian Pillman:Well, I don't need any friends. Gorilla Monsoon:Oh, I think you will. Brian Pillman:I certainly don't need any friends like you. Gorilla Monsoon:I think you are mistaken, rudely mistaken. Brian Pillman:All I need is myself. Reporter:What about a manager, Mr. Pillman? Do you need a manager? Do you have a manager? Brian Pillman:What, are you lookin' for work? Reporter:I'm just wondering how somebody controls you. Brian Pillman:Nobody controls me. That's the legacy of Brian F**kin' Pillman. I DO WHATEVER I WANT, WHEN I WANT TO! Reporter:Sir, you are out of control. Brian Pillman:Whether you like it or not, no one's been able to shut me up, yet. Now, I stand here, crippled. I got this bully, Monsoon trying to get in my face...well, you didn't do anything, did you...Gorilla? Gorilla Monsoon:I don't attack cripples. Brian Pillman:Well, you're a real gorilla, aren't you? You're just a big teddy bear, aren't you? I've had enough of this garbage. You can all go back to your 9-5 working class hero molds. I'm gonna get the f**k out of here! GET THAT CAMERA OUT OF MY FACE! Brian Pillman hobbled out of the room on crutches.

Too late, sirlah.

Ok, guys. I just got this stuff off of Amazon.com, and I hope they're really not gonna let us down like this. vs. Lex Luger, Halloween Havoc 1989 - Good Match, best on that card! vs. Goldust "Loser wears a Dress", SummerSlam 1997 vs. Jushin Liger, WCW Monday Nitro 9/4/95 vs. Steve Austin, Clash of the Champions XXV 11/10/93 Hollywood Blondes vs. Ricky Steamboat & Shane Douglas "Steel-Cage Match for the World Tag-Team Titles, Slamboree 1993 vs. Goldust, WWF Ground Zero - Pillman's Last Match RIP highlights from ECW, Austin & Pillman's Gun incident from RAW, Austin attacks Pillman interview from WWF Superstars and more highlights. The Matches are rumored and are a let down much like the Ultimate Warrior dvd.

Can you upload the Bret Hart/Faarooq match from later that year? I liked it soley for the whole Hart Foundation/Nation Of Domination mini-feud that was going on at that time. I really like the unity that The Hart Foundation showed in the aftermath of Brian Pillman's death. Or do you not have it?

"I respect you, booker man!" Pillman_Critical_Stop.wav

Yep, Cyberslam '96.

I think 1996 is where the Internet happened.

Ladies & Gentlemen of TSM, without any further adeu................

"I respect you, booker man!" My setiments exactly, Jester.

Spoiler: Or, a no contest because of a melee.

No argument here, and I'm an American, Bah Gawd. How many Americans actually liked The Hart Foundation during that era?

Nation Of Domination/Hart Foundation segment This is just another reason why I couldn't stand DX. DX

The Hart Foundation reunites in 1997

Well guys, I just pre-ordered my copy of the Brian Pillman DVD off of Amazon.com! I'm telling y'all, it's gonna be tight. Brian_Pillman_4th___California_Sun.mp3

My favorite had to be the one from the mid-90's, and I'm talking about the popular 1996 variation with Ric Flair, Arn Anderson, Brian Pillman, & Chris Benoit. To me, that line-up was the best Horsemen combination since the variations of the 80's. It was just too bad that it didn't last too long, especially when Hogan decided to castrate those guys on the 1/1/96 episode of Nitro. I mean, that Horsemen variation had potential.

Yeah, he took Arn Anderson's "spot" as "The Enforcer" of the Four Horsemen.

Dude... You're the fuckin man, dawg. Do you have all the Horsemen themes? And Arn Anderson's too? I know that's alot to ask for, but maybe we can swap it out. Name something. I have ALL the Four Horsemen themes. If you want all the themes, I can send you them. Just hit me up on MSN Messenger at [email protected], bro.
