"The Loose Cannon" Brian Pillman was a true breakthrough character and gimmick in professional wrestling. When "Flyin'" Brian Pillman joined The Four Horsemen in WCW, his demeanour and attitude slowly changed into an unhinged loose cannon that Arn Anderson had trouble keeping under control. What we didn't know is that Brian Pillman and Eric Bischoff had been talking behind the scenes about letting this "Loose Cannon" character go to other wrestling organizations; the end goal being the eventual WCW return of Brian Pillman.

Brian Pillman showed up in ECW in February of 1996 while still under contract with WCW. Pillman would make appearances in both companies the following month, the plan here being to keep Brian as a member of the Horsemen while feuding with Shane Douglas in Extreme Championship Wrestling. In the end, Brian wouldn't return to WCW when his ECW run came to an end, instead deciding to sign with the WWF after his car accident.

This video takes a look at Brian Pillman's transformation into the Loose Cannon gimmick, the infamous kayfabe-breaking "I Respect You, Booker Man" incident with Kevin Sullivan, and Brian's short but eventful run in ECW.
