Portland Wrestlecast: The legendary Roddy Piper-Buddy Rose feud

Portland Wrestlecast: The legendary Roddy Piper-Buddy Rose feud

Roddy Piper once told me that his feud with Buddy Rose in Portland made both men. And when Piper turned babyface and went after Rose, it set Portland and the Pacific Northwest on fire.

On this edition of the Portland Wrestlecast, I’ll take you through the botched finished that started it all the way to the loser leaves town match that sent Piper packing and across the country to Jim Crockett Promotions. We’ll detail the passionate promos, the series of hair matches that shaved the heads of most wrestlers in the territory at the time and led to Portland’s biggest blowoff and biggest feud ever when Piper vanquished his foe and, even worse, shaved off the golden locks of the “Playboy”.

Enjoy this look at the Piper-Rose feud on the podcast that takes you inside the history of the Portland, OR, wrestling territory.
