If I understand it correctly, he played the bagpipes in a pipe band before he got into wrestling, hence the name, "Piper" when it came time to find a gimmick for his wrestling persona.

I'm kind of stunned that I only recognize 1 of his tartans that you guys posted... the VERY LAST pic of him in the red kilt with the black horse hair sporran is a Red Wallace kilt. My GUESS for the pic of him talking to the ref is Dress MacDonald/

Yeah I only remember him being in the red kilt growing up and I don't remember thinking anything bad about the guy wearing a kilt. IN fact, if I am not mistaken, he was probably my first exposure to a kilt...
