Pillman Jr was watching highlights of his father Brian Pillman when the reveal happened.

Pillman Jr said he's coming back to the industry that hurt him, but he's not going to follow in the footsteps of his dad because he is nobody's junior. Instead, he will take the last name of the person who raised him, King.

WWE filed to trademark "Lexis King" on October 2.

It is unknown when King will make his in-ring debut.
