Did you like Andre the Giant with the long hair or the Short hair? I felt something was lost when he cut his hair, He just seemed more Wild when he had longer hair.

Also what was your favorite Piper's Pit moment? mY was when Roddy Piper cracked Jimmy Snuka in the head with the coconut and beat his ass with the belt-lol

I agree with you, Andre was a lot more scarier with the wild, bushy hair. As for Piper's Pit, the Jimmy Snuka moment was classic no doubt, but I also liked when he kidnapped the midget, "The Haiti Kid" and gave him a Mr. T haircut.

I'd have to say Andre with the long hair was more him. I had the doll with him having long hair back in the day. Though wih short hair he became a little bit more exciting to watch, and he also became a laughing stock.

I hated Piper back then, but him cracking Jimmy Snucka with that coconut was probably the greatest Piper's Pit moment. I don't know if you remember, but he also beat up a preliminary wrestler named Frankie Williams around that time too, that would be my second greatest moment.

Was Frank Willmas a short chubby puerto rican?

Actually, I prefer the long hair. It reminds me of his character that he played on the Six Million Dollar Man; that bigfoot character. That's when I first heard of him and got to know him. I didn't know he was a wrestler then.

What was up with Dre's long hair? He looked like the white Ben Wallace.

He came off as more of a bad Guy with the Long Hair. I guess when he was a Good Guy, the shorter Hair made sense

He was a good guy when he had the long hair. He was a bad guy when he had the short hair.
