He lives!

Agent Bedhead may be popping an egg for The Rock* but that guy has got nothing on Rowdy Roddy Piper.** Evidence takes the form of one of the great wrestling matches of all time: Hulk Hogan and Mr. T vs. Roddy Piper and Mr. Wonderful Paul Orndorff.***

With Muhammad Ali as outside referee.

And Liberace to ring the bell.

* Nothing against The Rock; The Rundown was a fine film. They Live was better. Sin-Jin Smyth looks promising too.
** The classic anti-villain.
*** So, has anyone ever noticed a strong resemblance between blogging and pro-wrestling?

Honestly, I'd take Ewan McGregor* over Roddy McBagPipes any day.

* Molectomy notwithstanding.

Jesse Ventura and Mean Gene Okerlund.

The icing on the cake.

That is to say, Gorilla Monsoon! My error!
