I met Peper when he first began in the San Diego/LA market and his big fued was with Gory and Chavo Guerero - He was hanging with a masked Mexican duo - The Scorpions - and would don a mask after a loser leaves town match to Chavo. Everybody knew it was him. I had met him a few times and he was also very pleasant and would remember you by name (of course the market was smaller and The San Diego Sports Arena a very small building). He was always willing to sign (not sell) an autograph. Class.
@RPenta If the story is correct, Jim Crockett had made advances in the northeast in 84-87 and was starting to even outdraw the WWF in many of their old towns like Philly, Baltimore and Washington (the owners let Crockett have the Capitol Centre for a night during the 87 Bash tour and they sold it out) so Bruno was brought back to help with ticket sales and elevate guys like Piper and Savage.
Dont Sell Piper Short.. He has an amateur boxing background and was tough as hell.. not taking anything away from Bruno.. but I guarantee Piper was the quicker of the two...
Fake or no, Bruno just has more confidence and ability than Piper, and I always liked Piper. If it was real you get the feeling 30 seconds after Piper mouthed off to Bruno, Piper would be picking his own teeth up off the ground.
@cableguy266 Hey dumbbell, Bruno was the most important superstar in WWWF, etc. history. Bruno did not want to wrestle after retiring in 1981-UNLIKE Dick Flair who never wants to retire. Don Vinnie pressured him into doing matches because the Hollywood Blonde Jabroni was not drawing consistantly in all the big arenas.
piper just slicing up his forehead it was obvious

@RSXemperor85 So even when Hulkamania was running wild, Brotha, they had to bring the Living Legend back, Brotha, to stave off the competition.
I am sure that Bruno said his prayers and trained hard, but never took any of the Hulk Hogan "vitamins"-Brotha.

@RPenta Flair has to wrestle because of his umpteen divorces.
