So I was just watching this video and Piper shoots on Russo about him killing his real life cousin Owen Hart. If so, wouldn't that make him Bret Hart's cousin too?

By the way, that whole thing was apparently real. And if so, thats pretty unprofessional of Piper, with all due respect.

From everything I've read, him and Bret were the best of friends. I don't think they are blood cousins, but as close as you could probably get without it.

Piper was talented but he is a jackass. He thought he better than he actually was. Plus I doubt this was real, I am of the mind-set shoots are not on television unless they are works, of course for the rare occasion but there is no way they would allow a guy to basically call someone else a murderer on tv.

Also I don't think they are cousins, probably just best mates.

BUT Jerry Lawler and Honky Tonk Man are cousins lol

I respectfully disagree. Roddy Piper was an amazing talent in his day. Not a great wrestler, but a fine brawler and a god on the mic.

Rowdy Roddy Piper is a direct cousin to Bret Hart and is actually Canadian rather than Scottish as many people believe. Because Rowdy Roddy Piper is Canadian i'm pushed to believe he would be related on the side of Stu Hart as Helen Hart is American although i could be wrong but they are definitely genuine cousins.

I don't question that, he is top 3 all time on mic no doubt. But every interview that is not in character you would think he was the greatest superstar ever based upon his opinion of himself.

One particular example that springs to mind is he said on Legends roundtable that Cena and Rock had to do a Piper's pit the Raw before Wrestlemania, now while IWC and smarks might think that was cool, the majority wouldn't have the largest of clues what it was.

He thinks he is still relevant and has done for too long. He went passed his sell-buy date long ago.
