which the last half or so Piper explains how this went down, and that it's real and unscripted. This was a real shoot, and when he smacked Russo it was a real hit. Russo was genuinely pissed at Piper.
Whether it's a work or not, the point is - we don't know - it's hard to tell. That's what's so lacking in most wrestling today. That doubt. That feeling that maybe these two guys really can't stand eachother. WWE lacks that a lot now.
Art Barr, Ravishing Rick Rude, Brian Pillman, "Quickdraw" Rick McGraw, Adrian Adonis, Andre The Giant, Owen Hart, Kerry Von Erich, Bruiser Brody, and the Junkyard Dog.are the names on the back of Piper's shirt.
@oldschool6804 this was my reply to someone who posted an RF video shoot...ah cool have just watched it now...i stand corrected. in pipers own words 'it was a shoot, a complete shoot'...nice one for link
When Piper slapped Russo upside the head, Russo got a look on his face like "Oh fuck, he's serious." Ron and Don Harris may have saved Russo a hospital trip here.
@xRazorFistx Absolutely not. Russo is classless and belongs nowhere near a wrestling product. As far as I'm concerned, he was responsible for Owen's death. He is responsible for the ruining of many careers and many lives. He deserves every unfortunate thing that's ever happened to him, and a hundred times more. He is not worth defending in the least.
I'm brazilian and I didn't get it what he said on 5:06 on the video... "You are simply the Ben (?) what??" Please, somebody help me :D and BTW, Roddy is a freaking LEGEND!!
As much as people thought it was scripted.Piper confirmed that it was real,and he woulda gotten into a physical altercation with him if neededd.Also on that note...if it was scripted...Piper wouldnt b so close to WWE right now like he is...n ow think bout that.

@Perniciousdeeds of course it was scripted. Not to knock Americans too much but you all believe anything you are told. If it was not meant to be his mic would have been turned off.
God... I love Roddy Piper. The reason I started watching wrestling back in the mid 80's. He was great then, and is great now!!!! Oh, and fuck you Russo you scum of the Earth!!!!
08:18 He punch him in the head and Russo is like a skinny school child, ready to cry. And this cowardly shit writes the TNA storylines? He really doesn't know nothing about wrestling.
Russo just takes pride in thowing Shit againist the wall and hoping it sticks, most of the time it slides off but eventually some of the Shit will stick and the shit that stuck was The Attitude Era in WWE and eventually that slid off the wall and that is the only thing he can take pride in and to me that makes Russo pathetic to the highest degree.
@King2123 on tna's immortal forever dvd - matt hardy said he gave his brother the "anti-christ of pro wrestling" nickname. however i agree with you in thinking that it definetly stemmed from russo
@FanVidRipp3r I never understood why Jeff Hardy called himself the Anti Christ of professional wrestling when his gimmick didnt set out to destroy professional wrestling like Russo did. His gimmick was just a drugged out freak, he never cut any promos being edgy and controversial much like Cm Punk is doing in the WWE.
I think they shouldve had Jeff Hardy's gimmick do something that would somewhat harm professional wrestling. Then again, I guess taking a bunch of nighttime medication and smoking a bunch of weed before a main event title match would somewhat damage wrestling...or the company.
@King2123 very true, the only thing close to causing a bit of talk would be his closing statements in pre match comments to fans such as "you bunch of marks only scream for my pain..etc".
on an unrelated matter i do think jeff''s mic skills definetly improved during his time with tna. and yeah the cm punk worked shoot is gonna down in history my friend
Fuck you VINCENT RUSSO for Murdering Owen Hart and trying to be a Born Again Christian just to cover up The Failed Ring Entrance at Over the Edge 1999.Nothing but a Fucking dipshit that's making excuse after excuse after excuse to make PEOPLE quit being Negative.
what a bitch russo was knowing roddyw as no longer doing a worked shoot he waited till those big idiots came to hold him back be4 he acted as he was gonna go after roddy
