soup23 Posted August 8, 2013 Report Posted August 8, 2013 Take some of the Warrior vs. Hogan promos from the buildup to WM 6 and add Alcatraz as a setting. Thats what you get here. I have no fucking idea what Hot Rod said even though I was captivated by it. I loved that he ends the promo with him doing pushups. Quote
Kevin Ridge Posted August 26, 2013 Report Posted August 26, 2013 Too bad Clint Eastwood didn't dig himself through the wall of Piper's cell. Quote
El-P Posted May 17, 2014 Report Posted May 17, 2014 Damn, this is the first bad Nitro in terms of angles. The Steiners car accident. Prince Iaukea winning the IC title. And now this. Piper in Alcatraz was idiotic, the promo was awful and had no point. There you go, Piper has officially overstayed his welcome and for the first time in a long time really, signs of bad booking.

PeteF3 Posted July 19, 2015 Report Posted July 19, 2015 Piper's "not doing no wrestling promo to draw and sell tickets." Sure you aren't, Roddy. He also makes a big deal about not walking around with his kilt on in the airport, unlike Hogan. I haven't minded Piper as much as others here, but with this I'm waiting for Ed Harris to come along and shoot a ball of VX gas in this guy's face. Quote
BruiserBrody Posted February 27, 2016 Report Posted February 27, 2016 I have a memory of Piper escaping the island by boat that I apparently totally made up in my head. Quote
Jingus Posted February 27, 2016 Report Posted February 27, 2016 Wasn't Alcatraz closed by then?As a working prison, it was closed about two months before Bruno Sammartino won the world title for the first time. So, yeah, it's been a while. Quote
KB8 Posted February 26, 2019 Report Posted February 26, 2019 I can understand why folk would hate this, because it's pretty much rambly Piper at his rambly worst, but fuck it, it's Roddy Piper cutting a promo from inside a prison that hasn't been a prison since the sixties so there was no way I wasn't going to find it at least amusing. Shouting "did you hear that, Hogan?" down his toilet, I guess implying Hogan is a big old turn, was a...neat touch, I guess? Quote
dawho5 Posted June 30 Report Posted June 30 Crazy Piper promo that sounds legit, check. But the whole Alcatraz thing is super weird and completely unbelievable. Still, Roddy can sure cut a (not a) promo. Quote
