      The Archons/rulers. See the Nag Hammadi (dead sea scrolls) Gnostic Text. Some of the matrix is in there, the concept of a fabricated world and controllers is nothing new.

      Roddy Piper even said that They Live was not a movie but a documentary, he died very young and suddenly, I believe he was murdered for denouncing the plans of the global elite

    Roddy Piper was by far, my favorite wrestler. I grew up with wresting in the South. I saw Dusty Roads, Sweet Brown Sugar, Andre the Giant, Terry Funk, and many, many others wrestle in the Jacksonville Coloseum way back in the 1970’s. I never had the honor of seeing Roddy wrestle live, but I appreciated his showmanship that showcased his awesome personality. I would have been honored to have met him.

      It would've been great if the WWF had let Backlund drop the belt to Piper in the summer of 1984.
      Piper would've made the greatest heel to ever hold the belt with the Capt. Lou Albano as his "manager."

    I wouldn't say he had a "sad" ending. He will be fondly remembered as a legend of wrestling. One of the best things about piper will always be his mic work. Guy sure could cut a promo, and host a show. Pipers pit forever! R.i.P Roddy! U were Rowdy before rowdy was cool!
