Pillman's legacy will be one that he was probably one of the first stars to use the internet(s) to his advantage. The whole Loose Cannon gimmick was ahead of it's time. He was a damned brilliant performer, and I remember the "a Flair for the Old" segment, where Pillman was playing Ric Flair, making him look geriatric and Steve Austin was playing the straight man.

That and the other obvious thing I remember is the "Cincinatti Bengals Tights" that JR would always talk about. Now that I think about it, that's kind of gross to be honing in on...
