RIP ROWDY RODDY PIPER :(

[2d]

Former pro wrestling icon "Rowdy" Roddy Piper died Thursday night in his sleep from natural causes, according to the Hollywood Reporter. He was 61.

Piper was one of the most popular wrestler from the 1980s, along with other stars of the World Wrestling Foundation like Hulk Hogan, Andre the Giant and Randy "Macho Man" Savage.

In the scripted world of pro wrestling, he was cast as a heel for much of his career. He wore a kilt as part of his pre-match costume and strutted to the ring while bagpipe music played.

He also hosted a segment called "Piper's Pit," in which he interviewed other wrestlers. In 2005, he was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame.

Piper was born Roderick George Toombs in Saskatoon, Canada.

TMZ reported that he died from cardiac arrest in his Hollywood home

Great guy - remember watching him in the 80s.  This was even before Q2, or Q1.  bean$
