gmen81 Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 Aw man. That's awful. RIP Roddy Piper. One of my all time favorites.[/quote Yep. I don't follow wrestling at all anymore, but I grew up watching wrestling in the late 80's and 90's. I was sad about this one and the Ultimate Warrior.

CanuckofSteel Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 RIP Roddy Piper I obviously didn't get to watch him in his prime, but loved it when he made guest appearances and when he cut promos even as he had gotten older. He will always remain a WWE Legend and one of the best on the mic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twilight Sparkle Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 (edited) new siggy. if you look at how both cm punk and aj left, after the careers they've had here, it's kinda sad how wwe dropped the ball and kinda let them just fade away Holy Crap, RIP Roddy.... I figured he'd be around for another 20-30 years. Only 61. for a wrestler during his time, 61's a damn fine year to go at, sadly Edited August 1, 2015 by Twilight Sparkle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anti-Comrie Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 CEEEEEEENA!!! Why did they have to book Owens and Rollins to tap to the stf? Ugh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
desiboynux4lifee******* Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 (edited) Was hot-rod on roids? I dont think he was, could it be just health related eg stress?? I guess my question is why are all these wrestlers dying at a earlier age like 60's and how old is Vince. Also, didn't Vince take roids?

Remy Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 Was hot-rod on roids? I dont think he was, could it be just health related eg stress?? I guess my question is why are all these wrestlers dying at a earlier age like 60's and how old is Vince. Also, didn't Vince take roids? I believe this is a common misconception. The steroids aren't, or aren't solely, what causes the enlarged heart that leads to heart attacks. Instead, my understanding is that it has more to do with abusing pain medication. Someone feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
