RODDY PIPER – CARDIOPULMONARY ARREST

Roderick George Toombs or professionally known as Roddy Piper was a professional wrestler who competed in the World Wrestling Federation, which is now called WWE. He also appeared as one of the leading talents in World Championship Wrestling. Piper, just like his name, was known for his signature kilt and bagpipe entrance music. We are sure he had an excellent medical insurance policy since his profession involved a lot of pushing the bodies to their physical limits.

After he retired from wrestling, Roddy became quite active in the Hollywood entertainment scene. He dipped his toes in several other fields, including hosting, acting, and voice acting. He also struck a couple of business deals with toy and video game companies that further expanded his credit score. On July 31, 2015, Piper passed away in his house in California. According to reports, cardiopulmonary arrest caused by hypertension was the leading cause of death.
