Roddy Piper Talks About a Possible WrestleMania Role and Working with Drew McIntyre

Posted: Mar 30th 2014 By: Mike Iles

WWE Hall of Famer Roddy Piper recently spoke with The Chad Dukes Wrestling Show. Here are some highlights:

A possible role at WrestleMania XXX:
?I wrote a quick note to the WWE saying if you don?t give the fans, what they deserve, the two guys that started it, just let them walk out, you know as more to thank them. I?m not there to have people cheer for me, I?ve had my share of that and I?m very grateful. But to have Hogan in the ring and not hit the bagpipes, the fans would never forget it. Not to give them that, to give them that to remember for the rest of their lives as would we, being Hogan and myself, who I?ve not talked to, I think would be a mistake. This is 30 years, we started with a thing called War to Settle The Score. The promoter put his house and everything up on a tag team match called WrestleMania, no number. I was definitely the dark horse in the race. 30 years later I think that we should say hello, but I don?t think the WWE?s with me, I don?t know what they wanna do. But it?ll tell me, if I don?t come out it?ll probably be the last time.?

Pitching an idea to WWE to work with Drew McIntyre:
?I think that the organization thinks that I will breed rebel into these kids, and that?s not true. It?s just what I had to do to survive for my family. That?s the only reason, I can?t figure out another one. The kid Drew himself went to them, I went to them, they ended up taking the kilt off of him and making him some kind of a, I?m not sure what he is. He?s a great kid though.?
