Epic moment that lead up to Wrestlemania 3, Pontiac Silverdome, MI. Over 93,000 people! Had to lead up to that eventually. Andre wanted to be "WWF Champion."
He played a heel character who's always complaining about "nice" wrestlers who smile and are fan favorites, like he's saying "Hey, people may like and admire you so much but here's what I don't like about you that I can't stand...........". A heel character who looks for flaws as reasons to hate a babyface wrestler and make an opponent out of him. He knew exactly how to get a wrestler over with the fans. It was so hilarious! 😂
Over 30 years later and this STILL gives me the chills watching it. This really was such a fun, fun, fun time to be a fan, wasn't it?
One of the best promos of my youth.
The best…
Pipers pit was MUST SEE TV back in the day!

Steamboat and Savage is the match that got voted match of the year.
@@MR-vf1fw Many still consider it 1 of the best technical matches ever.
That "yeeeessssss" is probably Hogan's greatest moment.
Piper's pit kicked ass back then, back in the days when wrestling was awesome
I can smell 1987 seeing this...this is PURE WWF/WWE
I wish I could relive 1987! For that matter, the whole decade!
Epic!!! That’s why Wrestlemania 3 was the best. All those people at the silver dome and that stare down in the ring…..unreal
I remember this like it was yesterday...
Piper could bring out the kid in my father like nobody else, I can still hear him laughing. Man I miss them both.
I feel ya. Wish we could hold on these moments forever. Life moves too fast. Rip to your dad and piper.
"The Aunt Jemima, of professional wrestling.... Jesse 'The Body' Ventura" 😂😂😂
YYYYYEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!
Jesse Ventura ... The Aunt Gemima of professional wrestling... lmao
Only Piper would have gotten away with dissing Jesse Ventura
Roddy piper was the man
None of today's bums could touch these guys
Hulk delivered that shit, great moment!
translates to "Bro... I just wanted his spot".!!!!
Piper consoling hogan because hes concerned is so damn funny but great for his character.
Wrestling was definitely in a transition time.
You had to be there to understand the true magnitude of this
Rest In peace Piper 😥💔🙏
Babyface or villain, Piper Will always be so cool
Like a lion roaring!!!!!!!!! YYYYYEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!

“I worshipped the guy. He was like a friend” 😂😂😂😂😂
"Take youne hands off I'm shouldas"...
Piper was better as a heel.
He was great as both.
Wasn't much different either way
100%
1000%
I agree
Hogan will aways be the shit! Absolute legend!
That YESSSSSSSS was the biggest pop at that time
One of the greatest at promotion...... evah.
Amazing angle
Everyone watched this when it came on tv
Piper's pit was SOOOOO much better when he was a heel!
TKO could never
Remember going to see WM 3 Hogan body slammed Giant was phenomenal
