Did anybody see the mention of Piper during Rhonda Rousey's 34 sec. UFC fight win last night? Seems he allowed her to use his "Rowdy" title and they were very close. She said she was fighting for him. At least that's the story I read this am. Don't know how accurate it is.
"Take a look at that". Sgt. Wilkerson-- CMBN. His last words after spotting a German tank on the other side of a hedgerow.

Sadly, he predicted an early demise


Quote
In an HBO Real Sports interview conducted by Piper in 2003, he had predicted that he was "not going to make 65" due to his poor lifestyle, and that his 2003 return to WWE was because he could not access his pension fund until reaching the age of 65.

Yep, they were pretty close. He actually gave her the 'Rowdy' nickname back when she was switching from Judo to MMA.
