BBB's Notebook: Born into Controversy, The Roddy Piper Story.

I've been waiting for a long time for this one to come out.

The feature is yet another solidly-produced WWE piece, covering the beginning of Pipers career in Canada and moving through Kansas and on to Portland.

Great feature on the Starrcade '83 dog collar match with Greg Valentine and then his move to New York.

Covers the Mr. T era and the legit heat that exists there, as well as WM 3 and Adrian Adonis.

Many guests weigh in on why Piper painted himself half black in his feud with Bad News Allan, they also discuss Pipers taking time off every so often to keep his character fresh.

I was a little surprised at the coverage of the HBO interviews and his WCW tenure.

Definetly go pick this up, disc 2 has tons of matches and disc 3 (which I can't wait to watch!) Is nothing but Pipers Pits.

This has been another poorly written dvd review by yours truly.
