He wasn't even that good.

Factually incorrect AND also far too soon.

He was 'kin ace.

There wouldn't be Wrestlemanias without him being such a success at the first one in 1985.

He was also one of the very few wrestlers to have a good career in Hollywood too.

Just never got on with him. And feel he came back too often.

They Live is fantastic though.

Gunner dig my video of ' They Live' out , stick some sunglasses on and chew gum.

Piper was good, but i just never liked him for some reason, could never work out why really cause normally i love crazy drugged up over the top wrestlers.

If half today's guys had half the charisma Piper did they'd be twice as good.

At least he made it into his 60s. That's got to be close to 100 in wrestler years

He was from a time I still thought wrestling was real (or at least I refused to accept it wasn't). Big fan of wrestling back then. Watched it on Sky Europe/ Eurosport on a weekly basis. Rowdy Roddy Piper was in my top 5 of fave wrestlers in those days. In fact, he was no 5 on that list. The others were:
1. Hulk Hogan
2. Brutus'the Barber'Beefcake
3. British Bulldog Davey Boy Smith
4. Bret Hitman Hart

Jesus wept

The death of a loved one often effects us like that.
Jesus will get over it in time.
