In a pre-taped promo Brian Pillman Sr. tells Jake Roberts that he’s got a lesson for him and it’s that good will always triumph over evil. Now, Pillman has ranged from lawful good to chaotic good, but he’s always been on the side of the angels in his mind. He knows there’s an old saying that the bad guy always thinks he’s in the right.
