The Man, the Myth, the Legend Vol. 3: Rowdy Roddy Piper

<p>
Wrestler. Hall of Famer. Legend. Rowdy.

5. Playing the hero in the Southern promotions

<p>

Piper's gift of gab served him so well, he was invited to assist legendary Gordon Solie with announcing duties. They were the first 'odd couple' pair of announce teams, with Solie mostly questioning Piper and other heels' cheating while Roddy would rip on the babyfaces.

However, despite their adversarial relationship, Piper had respect for Solie. When Don Muraco attacked Gordon Solie, it was Piper who came to the rescue. After that, Roddy became one of the most over faces in Georgia Championship wrestling's history.
