Maybe I'm blind, but this really seemed to come out of nowhere. I quit listening to his podcast because I thought he was insane and rambled too much, but he always sounded physically healthy to me (then again, what is that to judge a man's health).
Anyways RIP Hot Rod. You made the 80s and thus my childhood a lot of fun.

Is it weird that WWE's website still hasn't said anything about it?
Really "E"? Really?

Well this sucks, but such is life. we get old and we die.(61 isn't that old, but when you were in the 1980s WWF it ages you significantly quicker.)
RIP Hot Rod
This is one of my favorite Piper promos. It's not his best by any means and it's honestly not even really that good of a promo, but he delivers it with such passion and authenticity that it transcends the limitations of it's parametershttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r744gAqm4HI"]Dare to Dream

One of my favorite things to do would be watching old ppv's with my brother. We watched so many Piper matches, and were always entertained. I hope his passing was peaceful, and I thank him for the entertainment. There will never be another Hot Rod.

I don't have anything to add except to say that I'm stunned and sad. Rest in peace, Hot Rod. You're already missed.

I remember a smackdowm taping in Portland in 2004. We didn't know for sure but most fans thought Roddy would be at the show since he's from Portland( ya ya born in Canada) Bunch of us where at the rail by the parking lot wanting to get autographs, out comes Roddy, he signed something for every person there even though he was make jokes about being a half hour late to a production meeting. But he didn't care he made sure we all got what we wanted. I win I wasn't to scared to of asked for a picture with him.
I'm glad I got to see him in person a few times.
A Indy show in Portland Wrestle mania 19 The smackdowm I mentioned The Raw where he announced dusty was going in the HOF Hogans birthday last year.
Smackdowm is in Portland on the 11th I hope WWE celebrated his life that night
