Thanks to Rolin Moe for the following:

Rowdy Roddy Piper was a guest on the Scott & BR Radio Show in San Diego (AM 1090) this morning. He mostly plugged his current comedy tour, but there were a few wrestling-related moments:

*When asked about the current crop of wrestlers, Hot Rod remarked how proud he was of this generation being able to tell good stories in a PG manner. "It's very different from the business I started in, and that's good for the kids," he said.

*Piper subscribes to the 93,000 figure at WrestleMania.

*Piper said he enjoys getting calls from WWE to shoot angles, but at this point in his career wants to keep them memorable.

The announcers had not kept up with the product in years, and their questions focused on the Hogan/Andre/Ric Flair types. But Hot Rod was quite gracious and thanked all of his fans (five generations worth, he said) for letting him entertain.

A good little interview that is up on the XX 1090 Website.

I agree the PG era does Suck, back in the day Rowdy Roddy Piper was about as far from PG as one could get. He was one of my favored Wrestlers when I was younger, I guess you could describe him as the Heel of the time. I still remember for years he was the most hated Wrestler in the Wrestling magazines, this was way before the Stone Cold era when the heel was a hero. In fact some of the piper’s Pits, his promos and his matches were the funniest I have ever seen in Wrestling. I truly miss WWF in it’s early years and the Attitude era, thank God we have TNA :thumbsup:
