Plucked straight out of 1984 following the famous Starrcade Dog Collar match and a year before WrestleMania I, we have “Rowdy” Roddy Piper. His opponent is one of the most beloved stars of Lucha Libre and an international wrestling superstar. From the year 1973, the “Man of 1000 Masks” Mil Mascaras. The votes are in and we have a winner! FIGHT!
