10. “Rowdy” Roddy Piper
Once the bag pipes sounded off, the crowd stood to their feet and the cheers followed. Although some may believe Roddy Piper to be Scottish, he is actually Canadian. The “Hot Rod” hails from Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, but because of his Scottish heritage, he chose to build his wrestling personality around a quick witted, kilt wearing badass.
This character choice led to one of the greatest wrestling personalities the WWE has ever seen. As Piper made his way to the ring, he would radiate energy with every movement, from his shaking head to his jolting mannerisms. He was truly a showman at his best.
