Los Angeles was where Piper developed his Rowdy Character and became one of the most hated heels in Los Angeles since the days of Classy Freddy Blassie. One of his most notorious doings was the continuous insults directed at the area's Mexican community; he later promised to amend by playing the Mexican national anthem on his bagpipes only to anger the fans further by playing "La Cucaracha" instead."
