Title:
“Cowboy” Bob Orton
Description:
The Ace ”Cowboy” Bob Orton was known for three things: being tough as nails, wearing a cast for an arm injury that oddly never seemed to heal, and acting as bodyguard for his friend, ”Rowdy” Roddy Piper.
In fact, on March 1, 1986, he fought Piper’s nemesis Mr. T in a boxing match, hoping to soften up the movie star. The overconfident Orton let his guard down once too often, and resorted to cheating. That backfired, however, leading to the WrestleMania 2 boxing match of Piper vs Mr. T, with Orton in Piper’s corner.
