5 things you didn't know about Teal Piper, AEW's newest recruit

#4 She is good friends with Hulk Hogan's daughter

WrestleMania I.

The main event of the night saw Hulk Hogan team up with Mr. T to take on the dastardly duo of Roddy Piper and Paul Orndorff. The match, although far from a masterpiece, was incredibly well received and laid the foundation for future WrestleMania main events. The extravagant encounter saw legendary boxer Muhammad Ali play the part of a referee, albeit in a ringside role.

Years later, Teal Piper shared a bunch of photos on her official Instagram account with none other than Hogan's daughter, Brooke Hogan. The two seem to share a strong bond, if their pictures are any indication. Teal even went on to post a hilarious fan meme featuring herself and Brooke, which stated that if Hogan and Piper's daughters can get along in 2016, the rest of the world has no excuse.

#3 Roddy Piper once wrote a heartfelt message for Teal in her highschool yearbook

Back in May, Teal shared an incredibly heartfelt picture from her high school yearbook. The photo was of a page from the yearbook, featuring a bunch of her photos, plus messages from Roddy Piper and his wife. The message Roddy wrote for Teal proved how proud he was of her.

He completed his MBA from the Symbiosis Institute of Telecom Management in 2016 and worked with multiple banking institutions, including Tech Mahindra. While he started writing WWE articles for Sportskeeda in 2019 as a hobby, it eventually became a significant part of his professional journey.

Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.

He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.

When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
