10 Most Vicious Wrestling Manager Beatdowns

10. HotRod Smashes Capt. Lou’s Award

During the buildup to the inaugural WrestleMania, Cyndi Lauper was given a special achievement award for her contributions to women’s wrestling.

As she presented Albano with a large plaque, 'Rowdy' Roddy Piper entered the ring and smashed it over his head. The Garden roared as Hot Rod put the boots to Capt. Lou and Lauper, before bodyslamming her manager. The Hulkster hit the ring to stop the chaos, and the spark was lit for the War to Settle the Score.
