Unbelievable. Another of the great ones from the WWF now gone. I grew up watching Piper's Pit. The guy was the ultimate showman both in and out of the ring. There was no greater villain of Hulk Hogan back in the day.

Agree 100%. I would have to say he was my favorite back in the day.

I liked him better than the good guys he was going against. He was my first foray into rooting for the villains
I will watch RAW Monday for the tribute. He is also technically the first guy to have a win over Goldberg.
