Cancer? Well he beat cancer before.

Piper was a really heavy drinker and drug user in his prime. He was known for drinking, in a business already filled with heavy drinkers and drug users. He predicted his death years ago. Said he live to about this age.

Piper suffered most of his adult life.

Ox Baker told me at a convention that Piper suffered from "rotating hip". That he'd come back after some matches and just collapse on the floor and writhe in pain.

To ease the pain and stress of wrestling, Piper got drunk most days.

People will blame steroids, because he testified at the Zahorian trial, but I'm leaning towards alcohol effect and other issues killing him so young.

I don't agree. Despite the fact that it's staged, wrestling is not "fake." Wrestlers really put in a lot of physical effort into the performances and it takes its toll.

thanks for attacking.

That's clearly my point. I'm saying Piper was in pain and had rotating hip and consumed lots of alcohol to deal with his real issues caused by wrestling.

I can't believe it. You actually acknowledge Roddy Piper's passing.

You didn't offer your sympathies, which is par, but you did acknowledge none the less.

It's fake in that wrestling such as high school students compete involve the participants using 100% of their strength (more or less) to reach a not-predetermined outcome, earning awards and trophies that are actually earned.
