Rest in Peace Piper.
And yes, it was a kilt.

God f***ing dammit! The 80's just got more depressing. I thought Roddy Piper was going to be one of those dudes that lives a long life. f*** cancer! f*** cardiac arrest. This really f***ing blows.
RIP Hot Rod.

This is absolutely surreal.
RIP Piper.

Just when we thought we had the answers, he changed the questions.
And he did it better than anyone else.

What a shock to see this. I had him on my FB and he seemed like he was doing great. Looking good and hitting a lot of conventions. He was the guy that got me into wrestling in the mid-80s. I'm really upset I never got to meet him. He was supposed to be at a convention in Detroit last year that I was going to but had to cancel due to scheduling conflicts.
RIP Hot Rod

Terrible news. The professional wrestling world is rattled to the core once again with yet another tragic death of a legend. It's ironic that he died the day before his namesake "ROWDY" Ronda Rousey defends her title.

Wasn't one of my favorite wrestlers, but Piper's Pit was gold, especially the original with Snuka and the WrestleMania Pit with Love/Downey. RIP Hot Rod...tell Dusty we said hello

Well, this is f***ing depressing. He was here to chew ass and kick bubblegum, and I think he accomplished both.

RIP. Not a good month for the business in general, losing an icon only adds to it.

I'm stunned. I'm out to dinner and flip to Facebook while others are finishing up only to have this drop in gut. Roddy is one of the guys you always cared about, love or hate. He took everything and made it real.
Roddy, God bless ya and your family.

I....what?
This...wow. I was saddened by Dusty's passing but, having never seen much of his work, it never really affected me that much. Piper I saw as a kid on WCW and WWF/E.
I'm absolutely stunned. Piper seemed like someone who'd be around forever.
RIP Hot Rod.
