Loss Posted November 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2014 Russo confronts Duggan over leaving his "case of the runs" in his toilet last week. Russo's revenge is that he's been eating prunes all week and now he wants Duggan to clean his toilet with a toothbrush because ratings. He sees another toothbrush sitting there and pulls a switcheroo. Then Roddy Piper returns to say that WCW doesn't need any stinkin' writers. He criticizes the booking and is just getting started when his mic cuts out, which may be the best thing Russo ever did. Piper looks to the announcers for an explanation and Tony Schiavone explains to them that Russo ordered the producers to kill his mic. Piper goes on a tear and breaks into Russo's office and cuts a scathing promo on Russo. This comes out of nowhere and Piper is too wound up without escalating enough to that point. Russo points out that Piper is pushing 50 and only has one hip, but in his world, Piper is DONE. He's sending him out to pasture along with Flair and Hogan. Piper responds that he has a two-year contract and threatens to sue Russo for not fulfilling his contract. So Russo agrees to put him on television, but he has to be a "lowly referee" and if he refuses to do it, he's in breach of contract and Russo will sue his ass. This is not a bad way to use Piper if they had to use him at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Evans Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 More potty humor from Russo. Piper seems over with the crowd till they do the turning off the mic gimmick. Good promo from Piper on Russo and then Russo does a authority Steph Mcmahon promo on Piper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tim Posted February 13, 2016 Report Share Posted February 13, 2016 For what it is, this is a pretty good segment. The Piper/Russo interaction was good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteF3 Posted May 14, 2018 Report Share Posted May 14, 2018 Duggan cleans a remarkably clean toilet with what is apparently the TPTB's toothbrush instead of the one given to him. As far as TPTB segments go, this is one of the better ones. Piper's probably coming from a real place here considering his actual feelings about how Russo was responsible for Owen Hart's death. It's striking how noticeable but much less pronounced Russo's accent is here when he's not consciously playing it up like he does now. "Bro" has not been said once that I can recall, either.
