On Friday, July 31st, the world of professional wrestling lost one of the true legends of the business. But "Rowdy" Roddy Piper's style, humor and charisma lived far outside the squared circle.
We’ve barely begun to witness the fallout of Terry “Hulk Hogan” Bollea’s racist remarks making their way public, the WWE already having severed all ties to the iconic wrestler.
