Rowdy Roddy Piper in WCW
By Scott Keith on June 2, 2018
When Rowdy Roddy Piper debuted in WCW at Halloween Havoc 1996, it was right after Bret Hart announced he was staying in the WWF and turning down WCW's offer. So was Piper the back up plan, and would Bret have debuted
in that spot if he decided to sign with WCW, or was WCW trying to get both Piper and Bret?
Also Piper was with WCW until 2000, but was he always coming in for that long or was the original plan just to come in for 1 year, and because he drew money they kept him on?
WCW was signing anyone that would allow Bischoff to screw over the WWF, so Piper was always coming in regardless of Bret's status. And yeah, he drew so well that they would have been nuts to let him go after that.
