Tragedy to the wrestling family.

"Rowdy" Roddy Piper (April 17, 1954 – July 31, 2015) is dead. He was a Canadian professional wrestler, film actor and podcast host.

In professional wrestling, he was best known for his work with the World Wrestling Federation (WWF, now WWE) in the mid-1980s to the mid-1990s.

Although he was Canadian, due to his Scottish heritage he was billed as coming from Glasgow in Scotland and was known for his signature kilt and bagpipe entrance music.

He earned the nickname "Rowdy" by displaying his trademark "Scottish" rage, spontaneity and quick wit.

Despite being a crowd favourite for his rock star-like persona, he often played a villain.

Piper was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2005 and named as the top villain in wrestling history by WWE.
