    I never saw Portland Wrestling, but this is really interesting seeing Roddy Piper in such great shape, and also the Berserker with such a serious look.

      It’s a honor to be part of this group! I’m getting so much happiness (today in my fifties) out of watching the old Portland wrestling 🤼‍♂️ show’s (I watched on tv as a young kid)! Thanks for creating this incredible archive! I mentioned to Rowdy Piper at San Diego Comic Con (years ago) that some of his old Portland Wrestling Matches were on utube. I hope Piper checked them out! I’m almost finished with Piper’s biography written by his children. Colt and Ariel Toombs wrote that their father used to watch videos on the internet about Alien’s, Etc. I hope Piper watched some of our testosterone videos.

      @MoniqueFromPlymouth 6 років тому +3

      I think the reason for his '89 stint in PNW was to get back into wrestling shape before returning to WWE as a wrestler. At that point in time, he was already doing some Piper's Pit skits in WWE (most notably the Morton Downey Jr. one at WrestleMania V just weeks before this scene).

    Back in '89, I listened to a weekly wrestling show on WFAN radio. Jody McDonald was the host and Rich Mancuso, the wrestling insider. I remember Mancuso talking about a confrontation between Piper and John Nord. I always tried to look it up online, but found nothing. Mancuso spoke of it as if it was real. Seeing this 28 years later finally clears it up for me. Thank you.
