	Rowdy Roddy Piper Profile (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Piper grew up in a strict family environment, and with his rebellious attitude, conflict occurred within his family, and in his early teens Piper left home and “hit the road” fending for himself and trying to survive by living in hostels all over Canada.
		Piper’s time in the Portland area was relatively short in terms of his career, but while he was in Portland, he formed a long standing bond, for the promoter, and the territory, something which still exists today.
		Piper had numerous matches with Hogan during his time in WCW, often winning the matches, but surprisingly not the WCW Championship gold, as the belt more often than not was not on the line due to backstage political issues between Piper and Hogan, as Piper often refused to “job” to Hogan.

		Piper was one of the first wrestlers signed in 1984 as part of Vince McMahon's national expansion of the World Wrestling Federation (WWF),; although at first Piper was brought in only as a manager and personality.
		Piper weathered that storm and continued to work part-time with the WWF, wrestling, commentating, or playing the role of WWF commissioner while keeping a career in Hollywood.
		During their interviews, Piper reminded Hogan that fans only "loved you because they hated me." Since coming back from his 1987 retirement Piper has been a fan favorite, but it was his two-year stint as the lead heel in the WWF that made him a crossover celebrity.

		I respect the fact that Roddy Piper did not let himself off the hook in being better (morally) than he was, but it also felt like he was puffing himself up quite a bit, too.
		Piper also shows how so many wrestlers were responsible for the boom of the WWF in the 1980s but only a select few were justly appreciated.
		Piper not only relates the rigors of his life in wrestling, he teaches you the two contrasting views of the wrestling business and himself.

		Roddy felt like clearing the air, and we let him have the floor speaking on Vince McMahon, his WWE stint, the infamous HBO interview, and how Johnny Fairplay allegedly tried to kill him.
		Piper confirms it was Johnny Fairplay behind the wheel and drove the car into a wall, Piper's feet went through the floorboard, he walked home from it and ended up in intensive career for nine days.
		Piper said if that was true it would be very unfair, but on the other hand he refused to job at Wrestlemania 1 and 2 and you can only be in love with yourself if you have talent.

		Interviews were what made him a star, although he initially used a very irritating high-pitched squeal to cover up the fact that he didn't have even a hint of a Scottish accent (he really can play the bagpipes, though).
		In 1980, Piper won the main tag belts in both Portland and Vancouver (then co-owned by Don Owen) with Rick Martel.
		Briefly returned to WWE in 2003 and revived Piper's Pit, but he was let go after making negative comments about the wrestling business.
