Late 80's & early 90's wrestler in the old WCW.He had a high-flying aerial style of wrestling like Rey Mysterio or the Hardyz.Most famous for being in the Hollywood Blondes tag-team with Stone Cold ( who had hair !!) that won the WCW tags title 2 times.
Loose cannon gimmick reflected real-life addiction to drugs that ruined his promising careeer.Was in a car crash into a tree that put him in a 10-day coma & needed fusion surgery on his ankle.
He had to adjust his style which affected his in-ring performance & couldn't cope.He was found dead in a hotel room in 1997 from a prescription drugs-induced heart attack.

Brian William Pillman (May 22, 1962 – October 5, 1997) was an American American football player and professional wrestler best known for his appearances in the World Wrestling Federation, Extreme Championship Wrestling and World Championship Wrestling.
Brian Pillman had a legacy as the Loose Cannon, a wrestling gimmick that would see him do a series of worked-shoots that would gain him a degree of infamy for his unpredictable character. He was also known for being extremely agile in the ring, but an accident in 1996 limited his in-ring ability.

Brian Pillman was a talented high-flyer, who managed to get everyone to think that he was TRUELY CRAZY.
His character was insane, but he managed to get everyone backstage to think so, too.
He once pissed his pants in the ring in ECW during a promo.
In WCW, he once grabbed Bobby Heenan while he was doing commentary. This prompted Heenan to yell "What the f*ck are you doing!?"
Then, in WWE, he had an infamous segment called "Pillman's got a gun". It involved Steve Austin breaking into his house, and Pillman shooting several rounds from his Glock 9mm pistol at Austun. Pillman then yelled "Let him go! Let him go! I'm going to kill that son of a bi*ch! Get out of the way. GET OUT OF MY FUCKIN WAY!"
All uncensored and live.
Yup, Pillman was something else.
