On a recent edition of his “1 Of A Kind” podcast, Rob Van Dam revealed that New Jack was not a fan of Brian Pillman and passed some harsh statements following his demise.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On New Jack having issues with Pillman: “Pillman got heat with New Jack [in ECW]. The way I understand it, Pillman got on the mic to do a promo and to get attention in the back there, and as I understand it, he used the N-word and said, ‘From N.W.A. [the hip hop group N****z Wit Attitudes] with attitude.’ That’s the way I heard it. I heard New Jack was really pissed. I didn’t know about it while we were out there.”
On New Jack’s reaction to Pillman’s passing: “[Pillman] dies. And we’re all in a hotel room, [a] bunch of us wrestlers. I believe at the Marriott in Philadelphia. Some of us that aren’t normally in a room together … The subject comes up because that was just news. New Jack out of nowhere goes, ‘Good. I hope he did die. I hope he die. If he didn’t die yet, then I hope he do die, and I hope he in the ground right now, and I hope worms are eating his eyeballs.’”

According to Van Dam, Pillman had gotten into some trouble with New Jack during their time in ECW. It was reported that Pillman used the N-word during a promo, saying, “From N.W.A. [the hip hop group N****z Wit Attitudes] with attitude.” This apparently angered New Jack, and he was really pissed off about it.
