DDP On Being Backstage For "I Respect You, Bookerman!" (Brian Pillman Memorial Anthology Preview A)

In February 1996, Brian Pillman continued to escalate his Loose Cannon persona and break the fourth wall when he ended a "Respect Match" moments after it started by shouting "I Respect You, Bookerman" into the microphone, outing opponent Kevin Sullivan as WCW's actual matchmaker, a fact hidden from fans at the time. Diamond Dallas Page was there and sits down with Brian Pillman Jr. to recall the crazy incident in this preview clip from the "20 Years Later: Inside The Locker Room" bonus documentary feature from the Brian Pillman Memorial Show Anthology!
