Paul has been an ally of Roddy Piper throughout his career in the 1980s at WWE. He is fondly known as “Mr. Wonderful” among his fans and colleagues. WrestleMania in Madison Square Garden in March 1985 is still remembered by a lot of wrestling fans. It must be fresh in the mind of Paul himself as he could enjoy a perfect career path.

During the 80’s he has often been working with Bobby and teaming up against Hogan. He retired in 2000 due to a back injury and at the same time suffered from lymph node cancer. The entire community of WWE pays their tribute to this legend along with his family and friends. It is a big loss for the entire WWE community as it is hard to find such an inspirational man.
