Roddy Piper-Hulk Hogan at WrestleMania? Rowdy One addresses rumors

Chris Graham

piperStone Cold Steve Austin asked Rowdy Roddy Piper on his podcast this week about the rumors that Piper will face hulk hogan at WrestleMania 30.

The answer from Piper makes it sound like something is in the works.

“This is WrestleMania 30. I’ve pinned Hogan once and he’s never pinned me. From a fan’s perspective, and WWE Universe and Vince, it never had closure,” Piper said. “The business that would be done, the interviews and stuff would be coming from the heart. We could try to outraise the bar of the WWE entertainment machine in our sport, if they let us go toe to toe and don’t script us. The fans will see really how it got started and why, and then they’ll see the conclusion.

“They are asking can I get in shape. I am already in shape! They are asking Hogan. But there is a fear, I guess, of whether we can pull off the performance.”

Piper seems to be hinting to a singles match. Speculation has centered to this point on a tag match involving Hogan and a top face, perhaps John Cena, against Piper and a top heel, perhaps Randy Orton, at ‘Mania.
