As noted earlier, the funeral services for the late “Rowdy” Roddy Piper, who passed away at age 61 last week from cardiac arrest, will take place in Portland, Oregon on Wednesday, August 12th. WWE will be in the Portland area for a SmackDown television taping that week, so it’s possible that the services were delayed to allow Piper’s WWE associates and friends to attend.
Here is video of the Roddy Piper tribute on Raw, as well as a photo and video of the ten-bell salute that took place at the show:
