Following the passing of WWE Hall of Famer “Rowdy” Roddy Piper on Friday, Superstars, Divas and WWE Legends took to social media to honor the life and career of one of the most charismatic and iconic performers in the history of the squared circle. 

Among the heartfelt tributes to Roddy Piper was an Instagram post from MMA champion Ronda Rousey, who dedicated her upcoming fight in Brazil to the WWE Hall of Famer who bestowed the "Rowdy" nickname upon her.

One of the true greats of all time. My heart goes out to his family and the fans he entertained over the years. RIP Rowdy.
