Roddy Piper, born Roderick George Toombs, was one of the most influential and colorful figures in the world of professional wrestling. Known as “Rowdy” Roddy Piper, he earned a reputation as a wild, unpredictable, and brilliant performer who broke new ground in sports entertainment. His fiery persona and quick wit made him a fan favorite, as well as one of the most compelling antagonists in the business.Piper made his mark in several wrestling promotions, but his fame skyrocketed in the 1980s when he joined the World Wrestling Federation (WWF, now WWE). His legendary feuds with some of wrestling’s biggest names, including Vince McMahon, Hulk Hogan, Mr. T, and Bret Hart, are still celebrated today. Piper was a master of promos, delivering scathing, intense interviews that blurred the lines between fiction and reality, making him a pioneer of the "shoot" interview genre.His rivalry with Hulk Hogan was central to the explosion of WWF's popularity during the 1980s, culminating in their iconic clash at the first-ever WrestleMania in 1985, where Piper teamed up with Paul Orndorff against Hogan and Mr. T. Piper’s blend of intense charisma and in-ring psychology set him apart from his peers. His influence wasn’t confined to just the wrestling ring, as he also found success in Hollywood, most notably starring in John Carpenter’s cult classic film They Live.Piper’s long career saw many accolades, including induction into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2005. His death in 2015 left a lasting void in the wrestling world, but his legacy as a pioneer and innovator remains unquestioned. His shoot interviews—raw, unfiltered, and often controversial—are a testament to his fiery personality and his deep love for the wrestling business.This full 4.5-hour shoot interview sees Roddy Piper reflect on his encounters and opinions of Vince McMahon, Hulk Hogan, Mr. T, and Bret Hart, delivering a candid and unvarnished look into the world of professional wrestling.
