- Mr. T boxes Rowdy Roddy Piper at WrestleMania 2
It was as bad as it sounded. Piper, who was past his prime as a scripted professional wrestler, took on an actor in a staged boxing match. Again, it was every bit as bad as it sounded. The hype around it was huge as both men hated one another, and the fans could sense the real-life hatred between the two. Sadly, it didn’t come close to helping the actual “bout”.
