Roddy said he “should have had the damn dinner” in response to Benoit recently asking Piper to go to dinner with him to talk.</p> <p>Piper says he will attend Chris Benoit’s funeral, which will be his first funeral since Adrian Adonis’ because he “can’t handle them.” Piper calls Chris Benoit his “brother” and says he will stay on Benoit’s “side until the very end.” He added: “I stand behind Chris Benoit a hundred percent, I’ll be at his funeral, and we’ll wait and see what comes back (from the toxicology reports).”</p> Thu, 05 Jul 2007 06:46:04 EST http://www.thewrestlingpost.com/2007/07/roddy-piper-comments-on-chris-benoit.html http://www.thewrestlingpost.com/2007/07/roddy-piper-comments-on-chris-benoit.html#comments Roddy Piper matt@iscribelimited.com (Rock Bottoms) http://www.thewrestlingpost.com/2007/02/rowdy-roddy-piper-vows-wwe-return.html <p><a href="http://www.thewrestlingpost.com/2006/11/wwe-news-roddy-piper-diagnosed-with-cancer.html">Roddy Piper</a> is gonna defeat cancer.</p> <p>“I will be walking down that ramp on [<a href="http://www.thewrestlingpost.com/2007/02/monday-night-raw-ratings-a-vast-improvment.html">WWE RAW</a>] again, that’s a promise,” said a motivated Roddy Piper in an exclusive interview with WWE.com last week. “I want to warn everyone right now, when you see me on that stage, get the heck out of my way.”</p> <p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://www.thewrestlingpost.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/02/4102474.jpg" title="Roddy Piper" alt="Roddy Piper" height="174" width="268" /></p> <p>Click <a href="http://www.wwe.com/inside/news/piperupdatevow" target="_blank">here</a> to read the rest of the article.</p> Mon, 12 Feb 2007 14:44:11 EST http://www.thewrestlingpost.com/2007/02/rowdy-roddy-piper-vows-wwe-return.html http://www.thewrestlingpost.com/2007/02/rowdy-roddy-piper-vows-wwe-return.html#comments Roddy Piper matt@iscribelimited.com (Rock Bottoms) http://www.thewrestlingpost.com/2006/11/wwe-news-roddy-piper-diagnosed-with-cancer.html <p>WWE Hall of Famer <a href="http://www.thewrestlingpost.com/2006/11/wwe-hall-of-famer-to-miss-survivor-series.html">Roddy Piper</a> made an announcement on his official website today stating that he has been diagnosed with lymphoma cancer.</p> <p>The wrestler had been removed from a tour of Europe and the cancer was found after a tumor was removed from his back.
