Wow, I'm not sure I heard of this but it's sad.

Truly sad. We grew up watching him on tv, and having him return a few years back. So sad. We are losing a lot of our legends. I'm sure that there will be a nice tribute on WWE for him. RIP

I just saw this this morning in the news online. Wow. I remember him from years ago. And he was only 61 years old. That is not old.

One of the great villains of all-time. One of the greats from the WWF.

Suffice it to say, I was shocked when I opened up my Internet browser this morning and saw the news of Rowdy Roddy Piper's passing. I am a huge wrestling fan, especially the WWF/E. Dusty Rhodes passed away not too long ago himself. In light of this, the passing of Piper is especially heartbreaking. Coincidentlly, I was watching a show where he was looking for a new home for he and his wife. :-( Ronda Rousey, who also carries the "Rowdy" nickname and was inspired by Piper, dedicates her latest UFC match to the original "Rowdy One". A fitting tribute to a man who has contributed greatly to the success of professional wrestling.

I'm saddened by his death.  He was one of my favorites.  RIP, Rowdy Roddy!

Roddy was one of my all time favorites, so this news is devastating. I was just watching  some old Piper's Pits on youtube the other day! One of my favorite rivalries was between Roddy and the Adorable Adrian Adonis (another wrestler that died way too young.) I did a little tribute to him on my website blog. If you google my screen name you can probably find it. 

Google JediJohnnie and May the Force be with you!

Yeah I was pretty shocked that he had passed. 61 really isn't very old. I know he had cancer at one point but I think he was cancer free when he died.

His death came out of nowhere. I was pretty shocked because he looked really good only a couple days prior.

I am not a big WWE fan but my husband is.  I remember Roddy Piper from when I was quite young though.  I have also seen him in some TV shows.  RIP Rowdy Roddy Piper!
