– Maryland Championship Wrestling (MCW) hat sich nun mit einem Statement zum Tod von Rowdy Roddy Piper geäußert und das allerletzte Piper’s Pit Segment mit Rowdy Roddy Piper veröffentlicht, welches am 18. Juli 2015 bei Maryland Championship Wrestling aufgezeichnet worden ist:
„On July 18th, 2015, “Rowdy” Roddy Piper appeared for an edition of “Piper’s Pit”, as part of MCW’s Shane Shamrock Memorial Cup 15. Former WWE Creative Writer, Kevin Eck, was Roddy’s guest and the topic was the use of writers in the ever-changing world of professional wrestling. As always, Roddy Piper gives his candid thoughts on the industry, while recounting some incredible stories from his career. Sadly, the world lost Roddy Piper just 13 days later, on July 31st, 2015, at the age of 61. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends, at this extremely difficult time.
MCW immediately knew that we wanted to share the final Piper’s Pit with the world. This moment belongs to all of us who were fortunate enough to see this legendary performer in action. Join Shawn Credle and Danny Mays, as we honor the legacy of a true legend and a wonderful human being, „Rowdy“ Roddy Piper.“
