10 WWE Stars Who HATED Their Own WrestleMania Matches
9. Roddy Piper (WrestleMania 2)
The charismatic loose cannon known as 'Rowdy' Roddy Piper didn't see eye-to-eye with some WWF decision-making during his prime. He reportedly refused to play ball by doing the J.O.B for Hulk Hogan several times, and then got his dander up about working vs. incoming actor Mr. T come WrestleMania 2.
In a boxing match, no less.
Piper vs. T headlined the Nassau Coliseum portion of 'Mania 2, and it was as bad-tempered as anyone who knows anything about Piper's fiery career would expect. Roddy didn't take kindly to the thought of an A-Team star swanning into his business and playing wrestler, and he let T know about it.
In later years, Piper continued to work the gimmick by talking dismissively about Mr. T and the need for that match at all. Sometimes, however, he'd crack into a sly smile when discussing it. Still, it's nonetheless true that Roddy viewed working with the actor as a bit of an insult back in 1986.
