I have to go with the one with Frankie Williams. I always felt sorry for the guy, but he spoke the truth- "I may not win any matches, but I still get in that ring every week!"....then he got the beating of a lifetime. To this day, I still look for the Holy Grail of wrestling merchandise- a Frankie Williams autographed 8x10.

Pipers Pit vs Flower Shop debate remains a favourite,Piper mimicking Muraco's stuttering is classic

I still look for the Holy Grail of wrestling merchandise- a Frankie Williams autographed 8x10. Lol, yeah that would be pretty cool to have. Have you looked hard? Lol. Well you 2 already listed 2 great Pits for sure. 2 tops ones in my opinion. Piper vs the Flower Shop was great. I liked when Piper went at it with Mr.T. Those 2 together were great. I remember the one Pit which was in the ring with Piper, Orton, and Orndorff vs Mr.T, Hogan, and Snuka. Lol, Piper drew pictures of what Mr.T would look like if/after he stepped in the ring against him. Lol, this was great. The pictures were funny with Mr.T having a cast on his arm in one, leg in another, then in a hospital bed with everything broken on his body. "Classic" stuff. |

Just a shame Piper wasnt allowed to shoot on Mr.T,now that would have been great |

The one where Andre turned heel on Hogan still sticks out in my mind.The added drama of Piper,who was fueding with Hogan not all that long before this,just standing there in shock.He just said "you're bleedin man" in a very somber subdued tone.It was an extra ,albeit small,dimension to the segment that made it seem even bigger than it was.I mean here is Hogan's sworn enemy taken aback ...almost worried even....because if Andre turning on Hulk.Great stuff it was......

Yeah, that was kinda deep and different. Basically setting up a huge and unexpected change, the heel turn of Andre. Still upset that Andre died while last being known as a heel in Wrestling. Just didn't seem right. |

Just didn't seem right. But he didnt die a Heel,remember Haku turned on him when they lost the tag titles to Demolition,Andre ended his career by helping out The Rockers in matches against Orient Express by being in their corner |

Andre was also in the Boss Man's corner at Wrestlemania VII if I remember correctly. I believe Andre also appeared on a WCW event before he died.

No I didn't remember that, but still what was that like 6 months or less before he died or left the WWF. He should of always been remembered as a good guy and what his character was like his whole career, a lovable Giant. Not being a Heel and hated by fans for the last few years.

He turned face in 1990,and died in 1993 |

Another couple of good ones were with Greg Valentine in 1984
Piper and Valentine,shook hands and mentioned their feud the year earlier in the NWA
Sgt.Slaughter,Piper said the vietnam veterans got no respect when they returned,Supprisingly Slaughter just put his head down and agreed with Piper
