Roddy Pipper "im your man" video

[Guest converge241]

Its kind of a rhetorical question but does anyone else remember Piper being courted to be the official "leader" of WCW and he answered one week by Tony "getting word in his headset" that a video was delivered answering it..

 

It was piper in a video for a song he was singing (?) called "Im your man"

 

with him smiling and on the beach and all sorts of ridiculousness

 

to paraphrase Tony Soprano "it all seemed very gay"

 

they played the whole 4 minutes of it too

 

what the hell for???

 

so what was going on?? it served no purpose and they never answered it again

 

and i know that was kinda par for the course for WCW at that time but lets discuss anyway

They showed that because the video had a marquee that said "Rowdy Roddy Piper vs. Hulk Hogan" and that was supposed to be the proof that Piper wanted another shot at Hogan. Of course, that video was shot in 1992 and it aired on Nitro in 1996, so how the hell they expected people to buy it is beyond me.

I thought that video was funny as hell when I saw it.

I think I brought this up in an old thread about planted fans running into the ring during a match.

 

The funny thing about this - and there are many funny things - is that a "fan" jumped over the railing and handed Schiavone the tape before he was escorted away by security. A few minutes later, Schiavone and Zbyzsko got into a whole issue of stupid fans that want their 15-minutes of fame by interrupting a television broadcast.

1992?
