I thought for a second CM Punk was going to be epic.Now it seems he' not so exciting to watch..Same ole crap different place!!!Its bad bring back SCSA bring back undertaker anyone that can keep my attention and give me something to be excited about.Its just not happening.It almost reminds me of WCW Yuck.....
Back then it was so devastating when a wrestler left or retired. They built up a character, a legacy and the crowd reacted. Whether you loved or hated a guy you had reason for it. Piper is a prime example of someone who was hated but respected for what he did for the business as a heel. He was just as effective as a face too.
did anyone of you know that this little wheeled ring, which drove the wrestlers down to the ring at WM 3, was broken when Piper had his entrance? This is why he had to walk down the aisle ...
@muta157 well yeah, but there I know its either sci fi, or drama, or based on a true story. Its like I know they are not real. only for entertainment purposes. They didnt tell me that when I was watching wrestling. See what I mean?
I also love his movies "They Live" and "Hell Comes to Frogtown". Piper imho, is by far the best actor out of the bunch of wrestlers who made the move to Hollywood. He doesn't try to act, he just does. Like it's second nature. I really hope he makes an appearance at the Hulkamania tour in Australia! Imagine him fighting Ric Flair again, hehe!
I wonder it he ever really realized how popular he really was? Yea the character he played was fantastic too, the Hot Rod." With a classic line, "If it ain't Scottish it's crap!", LOL.
If you mean Adrian Adonis he died in 1988 in canda in a car accident, the driver of the van he was in swerved to miss a deer and wreaked the car. killed everyone in the car except himself (The Driver)
Wrestlemania 3 championship edition at music stores like hmv or sunrise.I got the whole wrestlemania dvd box set.Its worth it.But u can get just 3 on its own.
@86pimp3 No truer words spoken! No offense to Sting or the other legends in wrestling, but it should have been Piper who beat Hogan for the WCW title.
Does anyone have this whole match vs. Adrian Adonis. This was actually a pretty good match. That was classic when Brutus Beefcake helped revive Piper, which led to Piper beating Adonis.
I've been looking for this everywhere...That's when wrestling actually involved wrestling...Not all the backstage wannbe daytime drama of these days...Piper was truly one of a kind
They Live!!!

@zzDzCzCzz Indeed, heels now are simply hated for doing something stupid and will never gain respect.
The new faggot script writers should retire, get the original script writers back.
Yes, that means Triple H should get the fuck off the scripts.
