Featured review
Classic showcase and look at one of the "WWF's" most hated villians!
This 1985 video from "Coliseum Home Video" called "Roddy Piper's Greatest Hits" was a real treat for any old wrestling fan to view the footage is vintage and highly memorable. Interviews given from Mean Gene and Vince with Piper are tongue and mouth like gab fest. Segments of the "Piper's Pit" interviews showed just how dirty a wrestler that Piper was especially after he attacked Jimmy Snuka. Memorable never before and hard to see matches from the early and mid 80's were shown mostly at Northeast shows at New York's "MSG" and the Spectrum in Philadelphia, and the Boston Garden. A tag team match in which Piper and David Schultz faced Andre the Giant and Jimmy Snuka was a good start to this montage of Roddy moments, and highlighted and showcased was his match with Hogan and how it lead up to "Wrestlemania" and it involved actor Mr. T who was hot in the mid 80's with TV's "A Team". The feud with Superfly Snuka is well shown from Piper having a singles match and it ends with hits and a wild classic bang out brawl tag match against Snuka and the Tonga kid as bad guy Cowboy Bob Orton was Piper's tag partner. Overall well done memorable footage and this also featured some very classic matches with Roddy in the mid 80's as Piper was one of the "WWF's" most hated bad guys this is a must see for wrestling fans.
