RIP Bad New Brown, he was one the realest cats in the business. I recommend his shoot to any fan.

i don't know what else warrior has said about black ppl, but in this audio bad news kinda puts him over a bit.

"i got along with him. i liked him"

Man this one sucks, and sad the last couple months of his life where surrounded by the Podcast BS with Austin.

I like many others, credit Piper for captivating me and getting me into wrestling in the first place. I still remember seeing him crack the Coconut (my first wrestling memory) over Snuka's head.

I was hooked ever since

Rowdy in Peace

I'm not 100% sure he's a racist. And regardless of how some of you feel about him, death is FOREVER and there is no coming back from it. So for some of you TSCers brehs to be saying fukk him even in his death is truly tasteless and shocking to me. TSC is the one wrestling board that I thought was above that. Fact of the matter is, there's a wife and 4 relatively young kids who are without a father now. Rest In Peace Piper.

I'll be respectful and say RIP but fukk him, Warrior, Hogan, and any other racist piece of shyt cac :manny:

Good riddance. I'll never forget a lot the slick shyt this guy did, especially what he said about Mr. T ("Guy wears more chains than his ancestors...." and how he painted himself at WM comes to mind immediately.) If you think he was just working, Bad New Brown exposed this piece of crap in his shoot. He wasn't anything special in-ring wise either, boring ass matches except when he fought Bret (no surprise there.) Enjoy being worm food, you negrophobic prick.

RIP Bad New Brown, he was one the realest cats in the business. I recommend his shoot to any fan.
The contrast in posting replies :ohhh:

The producer of the documentary Bloodstained Memoirs has made Pipers scene in his docco available for free on YouTube as he doesn't want to make money off Pipers death. Class move if you ask me.

From their Facebook page:

Still rocked by the news of the passing of Roddy Piper. I've decided to upload his entire scene from Bloodstained Memoirs for everybody to enjoy for free. Sales of related products tend to rise following the passing of a celebrity and I have no desire to profiteer from this awful news. Perhaps just do me a favour and give a little something to your favourite charity in return for this. Failing that just tell somebody close to you that you love them. As we are too often reminded, tomorrow is never a guarantee. I had the pleasure of meeting Piper's daughter at this film shoot and I can't begin to imagine what she and her siblings are feeling right now. My thoughts go out to them.


Good on him.

anyone whos paid attention to roddy the past 2 years knows that he wa slosing it in his head. he could barely put together coherent statements. I feel for his family. all the legends are dying man... macho, warrior, dusty, hot rod... hogan is dead to the coli... idk what to do brehs... the legends of the 80s will never be duplicated ever again.

One of the best talkers the game ever knew and one of the best all-rounders to never have been a world champion... one of the FEW people I enjoyed watching stick around on the mic longer than he could wrestle.

RIP Piper.

At least he didn't have time to cape for Hogan...

He also was friends with Dynamite Kid so he probably didn't know they were racist at the time. They wouldn't be racist to him anyway cause Bad News was legit....

I admit I never was too huge on Rod due to stories of him being a racist, but I respect the work he put into the business. In the context of pro-wrestling, the dude is a certifiable legend and was fantastic on the mic.

R.I.P.

he made atleast 3 statements defending hogan on twitter, tmz and talk shows basically saying the good hogan ahs done should be acknowledges before we throw him away for one bad statement
