I saw an interview once of Roddy talking about his first wrestling match. It was a 170 pound Piper against the 320 pound Larry the Ax Henning. Piper commented "the bell rang to begin the match and 15 seconds later Henning was the winner."

I still think that the best thing Roddy ever did was to take the role of "Nada" in the film "They Live"; who will ever forget the scene in the bank where he walks in with a pump shotgun and announces;
"I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass.... and I'm all out of bubblegum"
Then he proceeds to blow apart every alien zombie lifeform in the place (it's complicated).
