The Rowdy one returned to a WWE ring at The Rumble in 2008, looking slightly less than trim in a shocking pair of lycra cycling shorts that obviously came from the same wardrobe as Triple H's back in 2003. Nevertheless, Hot Rod managed to generate a huge response from the 20,000 fans jammed in to Madison Square Garden and even gave something to the older lady in attendance when he whipped off his trademark kilt in some fashion. Piper was embroiled in a tussle with fellow legend Jimmy 'Superfly' Snuka before the pair were eliminated by Kane just over a minute after Piper entered the ring.
