PHOTOS: Piper, Orton & Orndorff Together at WrestleReunion

Famed pro wrestling photographer Bob Mulrenin took these historic photos exclusive for WrestleZone of Rowdy Roddy Piper, Cowboy “Ace” Bob Orton (father of Randy Orton) and Mr. Wonderful Paul Orndorff during their amazing WrestleMania I -era reunion at WrestleReunion in Los Angeles.

These were the top three heels during current WWE Chairman Vince McMahon’s biggest gamble ever, the push to WrestleMania I, which featured Piper and Orndorff (with Orton in the corner) against then-WWE Champion Hulk Hogan and The A-Team’s Mr. T (with Superfly Jimmy Snuka in their corner).

The event was so big, Hogan and Mr. T were all over the news, Piper was on the cover of newsstand mainstream magazines, and Hogan co-hosted Saturday Night Live the night before the event with Mr. T.
