Ok...I saw him last night, and to be quite frank, I was a tad concerned.
I look at him a couple years ago when he won the tag titles with Naitch. Then I look at him last year when he announced Dusty was going into the HoF. Both times he looked amazing.
But last night, he just seemed and looked so.....well old I guess. Now granted, he is no spring chicken but it made me wonder. Anyone think his cancer might be back?

even if it's not back, it probably aged him even more than he already was.

It's probably him being so out of shape. The Cancer scare probably didn't help. But if he worked out for a while I think he would look a lot better. That gut is really gross.

Roddy Piper has looked like that for awhile, he lives close to me, I see him a lot.

I mentioned this at the Raw thread too. Damn I never thought I'd say it, but Hot Rod's face looks old. His face never seemed to age til now.

The man is 54, has a full head of hair, and is in good spirits... where's the need for concern?

The bigger question is...how the did Santino mistake him for a woman from behind?! Santino's act yesterday was primarily about stereotypes. I say act since it seemed like he was forced to a script. Anyways, the stereotype of the kilt being a skirt, therefor Santino wouldn't have seen it as a kilt.

I do agreed with you, he looks terrible last night, he was out of shape. He looks fine at Royal Rumble 2008 (Jimmy Sunka ain't) and now Roddy Piper looks more old.

Looking back at it, i think it may be because of the lack of a beard

He must have horrible taste in women, you'd think the scruffy hair and backne would've tipped him off.

He needs to diet. That excessive wait could give him a heart attack, plus I'm assuming his body is still weak from the Cancer so that may heighten the chances.

I thought his gut looked bigger at the Royal Rumble than it did last night, personally.
I'm just glad we get to see Piper every now and then as he doesn't get HALF of the respect and acknowledgment that he deserves for his contributions to pro wrestling.

I can think of a couple off hand that deserve more recognition than what they get including promoters like Verne Gange and Vince McMahon Sr. But 'Taker makes sence there. The beard could make a difference. I mean look at Shawn Michaels. No beard, he looked his age. With a beard, he easily looks 5 years younger.
