Over the weekend, A&E released their WWE Biography on Rowdy Roddy Piper. The episode was seen by over 880,000 viewers that night, The Rock himself among them.
The Rock posted a photo on Instagram enjoying the documentary and heaped some praise on Hot Rod in the process.
The Rock met Rowdy Roddy Piper when he was eight years old
The Rock reflected on meeting Piper when he was just eight years old in the Carolinas because he was on the road with his dad, Rocky Johnson.
It’s really cool that The Rock noted that Rowdy Roddy Piper had a strong influence on his career when it came to being a heel and getting heel heat.
Rowdy Roddy Piper will live forever on the WWE Network and in the hearts of wrestling fans everywhere. The fact that he had such an influence on someone like The Rock is a testament to how important Piper was to the wrestling industry as a whole.
