Roddy Piper as a pro wrestling manager is Paul Heyman. The ability to engender both hate and respect. The ability to say anything and have it mean everything. The ability to turn a simple promo into an unforgettable catchphrase. All traits that made Roddy Piper great and make Paul Heyman untouchable. Watch the moment in 2013 when CM Punk finally gets his hands on Paul Heyman. Do you get vibes of say, Piper working either Hogan or Mr. T in WrestleManias I and II from that encounter? You don't? Watch it again. They're present.
