I had the pleasure of working with Roddy Piper & Jerry Lawler at The 1994 WWF King Of The Ring P.P.V. I was the Piper Impersonator. After my brief stint in WWE, I went on to manage "The Highlanders" in the indy's before they signed with WWF & became The Scottish Bushwackers which I hated cause they were so much better as heels. I had no idea they would both be featured in this video.

Piper's HoF speech is a tear-jerker. You know he loved the business. He hated himself. It tore him to pieces and it became a self-fulfilling prophecy when he passed away at a relatively young age.

@@Jackholiday1025 That’s not at all consistent with the character people mention. Remember how they fired the guy by making him leave rehab. I don’t believe it because not many people have good stories about him. Even if it was coping, it’s supremely inappropriate. This isn’t a cop coming across a high stress environment, this is a dude firing someone over the phone with years of experience and is a former wrestler himself. He’s not a newbie getting nervous.

@MoneyHoneyBunny Месяц назад

Once Johnny Ace took over... all went downhill. I believe all the stuff from the lawsuit with Johnny, hes a human piece of garbage and him being with WWE so long is what put it down the drain. He was a million times worse than Vince himself. Once Vince got much older and was giving Johnny alot more power, that's when it really got out of control, like with SashaBanks/Naomi.... Vince was gonna let them make the changes they wanted, and Johnny Ace essentially said no until Vince gave in, and Vince clearly was focused on things besides doing his job well at that point....

That Vince Russo part is weird because in a way I see where he's coming from. If you can't speak English in a predominantly English speaking crowd, it limits how much they can work a crowd. Problem is that assumes the foreign wrestlers have zero English speaking skills, which I doubt Russo knew. Even then, quality wrestling was one aspect WCW could challenge WWF on, so just keep them around and maintain the slice of audience that is left

@absurdist5134 12 дней назад

You can tell it's racist because he picked Kalisto, which sure, had many issues, but his English was always good. Yeah he made mistakes, but that was never caused by a lack of language skills. He was born in Chicago ffs. When you've got people like Shinsuke, Rey and Asuka, it really shows how full of shit that guy is anyway. He's the promoter, it's not their fault he was shit at promoting.
