  • When did he use this theme?

  • @Armeniacolombia29 he used this theme in 91 after he turned on The Ultimate Warrior

  • @Armeniacolombia29 Actually, he used this theme when he was programmed with Randy Savage in the summer of 1991, it wasn't when he was programmed with Warrior at all.

  • @birdmanbaby1000 The generations of wrestling snakes. good point. lol

  • this is reminiscant (sp?) of the snake of Jungle Book when he sings "Trust In Me"

  • If Jake Roberts gets back into shape, imagine the ovation for a Royal Rumble cameo?

  • @pbjdy12400

    He's retired now.

  • gotta love that 80s synth

  • This is a truly badass theme.

  • I love this theme and I love Jake Roberts!

  • the snake family tree

    jake the snake roberts

    the rattle snake stone cold

    the viper randy orton

  • @Devin Hades: Who the hell are you to say that Martha Hart is a pretender? That woman lost her husband and the father of her kids over some stupid shit he had no business doing and said ahead of time he didn't wanna do...I'm so sick of people acting like Martha Hart and her children should just "get over it" so they can put Owen in a worthless Hall Of Fame that means nothing or stick him in a dumbass video game or DVD.....There's no time limit on grief and she shouldn't just "get over it" for us

  • @TheDillengerEffect: At the end of the day you have to remember that Owen made the decision to go up there. He didn't want to do it, he shouldn't have been asked to, but he did it anyway. It is said that Owen was trying to save up enough money to retire at his soon expiring contract. Even if Vince did job him to oblivion, he could have easily signed a 1-year deal with WCW and got the extra cash to retire on. Bischoff was spending money like water around that time.

  • Cont: Owen made a bad decision and it cost him his life. Vince McMahon and Russo are responsible for coming up with the stupid stunt, and Owen is responsible for going through with it. In that bane, banning Owen from WWE doesn't do anything constructive at all. It's taking away money that could be used for the family. They took the lawsuit money so why not take money in royalties from Owen merchandise as well? I agree the WWE HOF is a joke, but Owen deserves a tribute DVD a least.

  • @D2Kprime Actually, Owen voiced his objection to the 'Superhero-like' entrance on at least one occasion, but was persuaded by management to do it. Also, of course, not forgetting the whole Blue Blazer schtick was a punishment for being Bret's brother as well as a dig at Sting.

  • @MattSingh1 : I know he voiced his objected to it which is why I said "he didn't want to do it." Otherwise how else would we know he didn't want to do it? Can't read minds. Point is that he agreed to do it and he didn't have to.  Unfortunately for him it was a mistake that cost him his life.

  • @D2Kprime You entirely and exactly missed the grammar of point; Owen, being the sort of personality he was, was brow-beaten and cajoled into doing the stupid stunt, which had zero merit in regards to either (1) drawing money, or (2) entertaining fans. You also failed to address my point (in) regards to the reasons behind the "Superhero-like entrance". I wouldn't call Vince McMahon a murderer, but he was responsible for the accident. You seem woefully ill-informed on this issue, however.

  • Imagine the class for the 2012 HoF. Jake the Snake, Macho Man, (Hopefully) Owen, Edge. Shaping up to be great.

  • ok fine, ill trust you...damn.

  • oh fuck. am i in hell?

  • Played a wrestling game on the SNes, loved the pro wrestlers themes even if I didn't exactly knew who they were, but this theme in particular with that pic of Jakes cold look...Chilling

  • DTA = Don't Trust Anyone.

  • The trust me part is part of what makes the song creepy dude. His face theme doesn't have him saying 'trust me' in it. I personally like this one better.

  • This would have been so much better without Jake saying "Trust Me"

  • "Never Trust a Viperor An Apex Predator? Randy Orton & Jake Robert's Both Lethal In The W.W.E. Universe.

  • Jake Roberts was a rairity. Well above average wrestling ability with a unique look, a great voice, and a charismatic promo man who didn't have to resort to a plathora of catchphrases and say the same thing over and over again. Should of been a WWE champion, and probably would have been had it not been for his personal demons.

  • You talk about great promo men. You've got your Rocks and your Flairs. Your Stone Colds and your Hulk Hogans. Your Triple Hs and John Cenas, but they all lack something that Jake had, the ability to keep you interested for an extended period of time. I swear, I say this about Jake all the time, but if Raw was on for two hours and it was nothing but a promofest, I'd want Jake to main event that show.

  • One of the few wrestlers who was a perfect fit as heel or face.

  • Jake The Snake should have had an Intercontinental Championship title run in 1992. Jake The Snake vs Bret Hart would have been an interesting feud had he not gone to WcW.

  • Love this twisted evil theme. One of my favorite wrestlers of all time.

  • Jake Roberts for HOF 2012. Along with Macho Man and Owen Hart.

  • @DevinHades you might as well stop mentioning owen hart. I know we love to blame the wwe for not putting him into the hall of fame but it's his wife who doesn't want anything to do with the wwe and will sue if theyuse his name.

  • I don't give a flying fuck about Owen's wife. Even Owen's own brother Bret Hart, agrees that she is a fucking pretender.

  • @DevinHades Have another sip, Billy Bob.

  • Now this is a fucking theme song.

  • @DevinHades Owen won't be inducted, WWE have been trying for years but they can't induct him for legal reasons. I think it has something to do with his wife not letting them.

  • @DevinHades I dunno.British Bulldog,Mr.Perfect,Rick Rude,Elizabeth,Demolition,and Ultimate Warrior should all get in before Owen.

  • @LiveforChrist999 Demolition before Owen!?! Yeah....no.

  • @wwerulestna Stupid Owen Hart mark.Demolition was and is one of the greatest tag teams of all time.Owen Hart? What did he do that would make him worthy of an HOF induction? I can think of at least twenty wrestlers that need to be inducted before Owen freakin' Hart.INCLUDING Macho Man and Demolition.

  • @LiveforChrist999 lol Demolition wasn't that great at all...a cheap rip off of the Legion of Doom and only lasted for a couple of years. Owen Hart was a much better wrestler and did much more in and for the business than either Demolition members. I'm not disagreeing with you about Savage...

  • @LiveforChrist999 Demolition had shit on the Road Warriors-the tag team on which they were based. Everyone knew they were just a shameful rip-off of the Road Warriors. Owen is far more deserving of a place in the HoF. What'd he do to deserve his spot? Competed in some of the most memorable WWE matches of all time with his brother Bret, was one of the most exciting superstars of his day, and belonged to the legendary Hart family. And he died for the business

  • @warriorofwrestlingv3 Everyone knows they were originally based on Road warriors but to be fair most copied gimmicks don't work, Demolition did..

    They were a cool team, they didn;t legit beat people up like Road warriors and could wrestle a bit too imo. Its not like LOD walked in WWF and everyone suddenly jumped ship to them. Both were liked.

  • @terryfink EXACTLY!

  • @warriorofwrestlingv3 Just because Owen Hart upset in a fluke and was in the Hart family doesn't mean he deserevs an HOF.Demolition does.Heck,EVERYBODY deserves an HOF induction more than Owen Hart

  • @DevinHades as long as owen wife still lives he will never be in the wwe hall of fame.

  • god i miss Jake Roberts. Loved his python damien. His DDT was more brutal then anything today

  • jake the snake 4ever should have been champ and he is in my eyes

  • They don't make heels like Jake Roberts anymore.

  • Greatest Promo, Greatest Villain, Greatest Storyline guy in the business besides ted dibiase"million dollar man' Sr. epic vs Andre the giant, earthquake, Rick "the mode;" martel in his blindfold match, Macho man, ravishing rick rude, and who can forget the ultimate warrior and undertaker fueds. Jake can steal a line from Bret Hart when it comes to the things he did.. He was "the best there was" from back in WWF's old school times..

  • if you missed the being of the wwf back in the glory days thumbs up

  • Poor snakey!

  • This is just a slower remix of is older theme.

  • 13 peole are wallowing in the muck of avarice

  • This sounds like some 1980's bad ass action movie theme,

    JCVD riding a bike to a chics house, only to end up karate kicking 50 full grown men's heads off then pounding the fit blonde who you'll never see in another film...

    Thats the definition of "RUINED"

  • jake the snake and the ultimate warrior where the fuck are they talk about an ungrateful prick like mcmahon

  • i taught the comments below were a joke i dont watch wwf anymore but i cannot believe the ridiculous decisions as far as the hall of fame goes you only need to google it to laugh at it hulk hogan 2006 haha he is wwf and drew carey thats just about politics and money

  • "Tuesday in Texas is not the end.. It is not the beginning. It's not even the beginning of the end. Yet.. the end.. of the beginning"

  • Who's not in the WWE Hall of Fame... Macho Man Randy Savage, Jake the Snake Roberts, Owen Hart, Demolition, Dino Bravo, Bruno Sammartino and a lot of others I could name right now... but who is in the WWE Hall of Fame? Drew Carey... that is just messed up. I mean Pete Rose deserved it... but not Drew Carey. that is just wrong on so many levels.

  • @casey3685

    Pete Rose did not deserve it. They're both joke entries ; like the WWE Hall of Fame as a whole is a joke.

  • @casey3685 Dino Bravo?!? Are you serious? Your opinion counts for nothing after that. Dino Bravo.... What a joke!

  • @1981bigdee hey dino was good man. say what you want about him but he deserves to be in the hall of fame.

  • @1981bigdee Dino Bravo,a joke? Someone(you) don't know too much about wrestling.

  • before drew carey made it in the HOF...we were spoon fed to pete rose in the wwe HOF. what has those two contributed as far as getting tombstoned by kane a billion times, and eliminating yourself @ RR?

  • I am with that guy about Drew Carey being in the HoF before Jake except, I don't think Drew should be in the HoF. He hosted Raw one time. oooooh

  • I loved Roberts, Ric Rude, Andre and DIbiase back in the day they were epic wwf heels.

  • This available on CD anywhere?

  • Stone Cold says Don't Trust Anyone!

  • Trust Me

  • I don't know which theme I like more. I mean, this theme is a slowed down version of his first theme.

  • @SabreFan84 its his face theme in reverse i think

  • Never trust a snake.

  • @MyNational88 always trust the snake

  • ohh believe me i trust the snake. and 1 people dont

  • How ironic that the video ends at 3:16 and Austin beat Roberts in 1996 and coins the 3:16 phrase

  • The cobra biting incident is the most extreme angle ever in pro wrestling.

  • I trust him

  • Before there was The Viper, Before There was The Texas Rattlesnake, There was this man The Snake, Before an RKO, Before a Stone Cold Stunner, there was The Innovated DDT.

  • Whoever wrote this song surely listened to some J.M, Jarre

  • This is great song TRUST ME !!!!

  • Any wrestling promotion could hire Jake to teach ring psychology 101, and they would see their product raised beyond belief.

  • Sounds like a slower version of his old music. With his voice dubbed in.

  • yea the WWE hall of fame HAS SOME garabage ass choices, I DONT GIVE A DAMN if certain wrestlers left on bad terms, or had issues, IF THEY WERE A PART OF THE WWF BECOMING BIG TIME then they deserve to be in this hall of fame. CASE IN POINT, the late randy savage SHOULD HAVE BEEN IN YEARS AGO, but was robbed because of how he left, AND NOW sadly hes going on cause he passed away WHEN HE HAS ALL THE CREDENTIALS, and we got lame ass celebs in there that aint done shit for the building of the WWF.

  • devious young man turns into creepy older man

  • One of the greatest storytellers, voices, and minds in the business despite his personal problems. It's so asinine that people want to only concentrate on his substance addiction and not his positive qualities... like all of us are fuckin' saints.

  • @robinkom Thank you. Its good to see someone gets it.

  • @robinkom totally agree with you! he is one of my all time faves and he would have made a shitload of money if vince had given him a run with the world title especially when he turned heel in mid 91.

  • @robinkom Excellent points!

  • @robinkom especially considering what he went through, if every single person in your life either died or hated you how the fuck would you feel? like doing some drugs right?

  • The Snake was the greatest in his day. It's a shame drugs limited his ability to give back to the business. He'd be an awesome booker. To be honest, what we're missing in wrestling nowadays is psychology and emotion.

  • Fact is this guy was probably one of the best Ring Psychologists and talkers the business has ever seen. If I was trying to become a wrestler and didnt know how to cut promos I would watch this guy. Many other wrestlers picked up a lot of their craft from him. I remember Stone Cold saying that he used to watch Jake and really admired him.

  • its two bad hes a crackhead

  • @alkipp47 it's too bad you're a crackhead

  • not with those eyes i wont.

  • this is the same melody from the first theme just slowed down

  • His hand smells like butthole

  • what a cool theme perfect for his character And yes he should be in the Hall of Fame!

  • Sounds a little like a DBZ power up theme lol.

  • The one of few many heel wrestlers who knew how to make a promo work. Today's WWE stars should watch tapes of him and learn how to talk on a microphone.

  • im completly sober. trust me.

  • @1EPowerUp That was perfect

  • I cried when the cobra bit Macho Man...not a Saturday Morning wrestling moment to wake up to

  • @bammybound macho man died

  • @baderhouli Holy crap..I just found out..thats crazy

  • @PlushtarIII But what he did to Ultimate Warrior before that in August 1991 is right up there.

  • Trust me do you trust me?

  • 12 people do not trust Jake the Snake

  • @DANW547: Now it's 13...given the darkness of this character, is that a sign??

  • What about when Rikishi ran over Stone Cold Steve Austin?

  • pitty he couldnt control his deamons what a wrestler jts for life

  • Who'd thinks a Jake "The Snake" Roberts VS Randy Orton feud would be a CLASSIC? In WWE ALL STARS we got a taste of "Who is the coldest snake?", but an actual rivalry between the 2 should be a great storyline.

  • @sgauden02 It would be the battle of the snakes, The Viper vs The Snake. The DDT vs The RKO The Legend vs The Legend Killer. Randy Orton vs Jake The Snake Roberts

  • @Terryfan Please, Randy Orton does not belong in the same ring with the original Viper

  • @PabloMGP Jake Roberts is forever the real snake of Wrestling because he knew how to control the fans.

  • Why? Orton's great.

  • They just do have character anymore and they got some real bad gimmicks and storylines. None worse than Cody Rhodes smashed face, he prob did have some plastic surgery done and maybe does need to wear that mask for healing purposes but its a crap gimmick and a poorly acted gimmck. Back to the "Snakeman" he was an awsome heel and face. WWE wrestlers are either good at one or the other - but not both. Oh and can somebody lend me some. MONEY MOEY MONEY MONEY MONEEEEEEEEEEEY. HAHAHAHAHA.

  • This was back when a wrestler's music revolved around the character. Not just a random rock song.

  • The background to this theme is very similar to his face music.

  • @Edgehead10075 which is what makes this theme even better.

  • This is all I could think of when I played Mass Effect

  • I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS THEME.COLD BLOODED AS F#@%!!!!

  • @sweetsour55 sickest theme ever!

  • 12 people don't trust me...

  • ill be honest im not a big fan of jake as a face but like him as a heel its more fitting never trust a snake

  • My ALL TIME FAVORITE WRESTLER and my ALL TIME FAVORITE THEME! I wish I could get that T-Shirt he's wearing at 2:30.

  • I'll tell you what pisses me right off, the fact that Drew Carey got into the fucking hall of fame before Jake The Snake Roberts!!!! what kind of serious BS is that!?! as much as I love WWF/E they make some real messed up choices.....Id love to see my favorite childhood wrestler in the HOF.

  • @MEGAUT3FAN Drew Carey---> Celebrity Wing

    Jake "The Snake" Roberts should be in there along with a bunch of others. If you're gonna complain about Drew getting in the HoF before anybody, it should be Drew getting in before MR. T.

  • @EKB316 I'm actually surprised they haven't put Tyson in. He's back on good terms with Vince. I guess they might be scared of what he might say during his speech.

  • @EKB316 T declined the offer

  • @StuBram2 Yeah, I know that. He's mad because WWE inducted PETE ROSE before him. That's why he declined.

  • @MEGAUT3FAN

    Vince is probably afraid Jake the Snake will show up drunk and high at the ceremony.

  • @MEGAUT3FAN I can't believe that either.

  • @MEGAUT3FAN Good point, but what pisses me off is Macho Man, Owen Hart etc haven't either.....The list goes on an on....But on a lighter note.....Maybe the WWE HOF.....Do not trust the snake =]

  • Owen's widow has a lot to do with why Owen's not in the Hall of Fame. As far as the Macho Man, Vince had real life heat with him. Maybe now that he's dead, he'll be let in the Hall of Fame. I'm pretty sure that the WWE has contacted Roberts about being in the Hall of Fame, but he's not interested. Same with Sammartino and the Ultimate Warrior.

  • @Edgehead10075 I just didn't know the stability of the Hart one, because Bret came back....I knew about the Macho Man, the rumors etc........But I've read the real deal on Bruno Sammartino and Ultimate Warrior (not wikipedia shit), it's not them denying the HOF, it's Vince denying it for them, for lack of words.

  • @Edgehead10075 Owen's widow has everything to do with it. Severed all ties with the WWF and the Harts. They'll never see his children again.

  • @MEGAUT3FAN Motherfuck, MEGAUT3FAN, you should be on the WWE council because you sound way smarter than the douchecocks that elected Drew Carey before Jake Roberts.

  • @MEGAUT3FAN Yeah, it's pathetic really. There's no real validity to the HoF when Macho Man isn't in there. If they took it to vote it would be a resounding yes. But sadly Vinny Mac and his politics get in the way.

  • @zzDzCzCzz Its all about who Vince is on good terms with. How the fuck did Abdullah The Butcher make it in before Jake who was one of the biggest stars in their history? Oh wait, because Triple H is a mark for Abdullah.

  • @RSXemperor85 Yeah and Sunny I couldn't keep my legs closed got in there ahead of other greats. First Lady into the Hall of Fame should have been Miss Elizabeth. Moolah and Sherri a close 2nd. But again, politics come into play. Roddy Piper said he was ashamed basically that the WWE has a celebrity wing in the HoF. It's true though, Drew Carey and Pete Rose being in there ahead of PROPER athletes? I don't care what Vinny Macs justification was, you put your workers who bled for you ahead of them

  • @zzDzCzCzz Moolah is in the Hall of Fame

  • @zzDzCzCzz Actually, from what I heard Mach is finally getting in this year. It's a shame it couldn't be during the man's lifetime, though.

  • @MEGAUT3FAN Celebrity wing in the HOF, jackass. Would everyone stop bitching about this? They induct a celebrity every year; they have been for years. So calm down. Time will tell.

  • @MEGAUT3FAN As much as I agree with you, I think the WWE reasoning is ok. They want to induct Jake, but "no pun intended", they don't trust him. They sorta want to offered it as a reward if and when, he sobers up and cleans up his life. but he's one of the all time greats. No doubt about that.....

  • @MEGAUT3FAN Roberts is a former drug addict. And he's not exactly sane so that's why they're waiting so long to induct him into the HoF. You forget that Drew Carey drew some money for them when he was tehre for that short amount of time.

  • @MEGAUT3FAN jake the snake, owen hart. they're all getting fucked over

  • @MEGAUT3FAN The fact that Drew Carey is in there before guys like Jake Roberts, Arn Anderson, Rick Rude, etc. is a disgrace.

  • @MEGAUT3FAN Ya man that is such bull Jake is The fucken man.

  • This music could be boss music from an early 90's video game

  • why is this legend not in the hall of fame come on vince for crying out loud sunny is in it

  • "Trust me" This theme is the shit!

  • I heard WWF wanted to put him in the hall of fame previously but he is a total crapshoot since he had his fair share of relapses.

    He definetly deserves to be in there I dont think anyone could deliver a better promo.

  • Is the snake from 0:45 a fake ?

  • @cableconnection6 na looks real he always had real snakes in wwf so a picture would have a real one in it

  • First off Jake Roberts should be in the HOF already, WTF! This guy could pull off a well loved face or define the term heel. He was that damn good on promos and could hold the audience in the palm of his hand with his interviews.

    Put Jake The Snake in the HOF!

    Hell bring back his talk show Snake Pit! Fans would dig that and these so called new guys now (cough, MIZ) could learn how to cut promos from an expert.

    Anybody agree!

  • But Warrior learned it well... You can't trust the snake.

  • I like his first them better but this one was cool too. Soooooo eery.

    When I was a child I didn't care that he was a heel, he was my favorite.

  • I imagine this music going through his head after doing a lot of blow.

  • his theme almost sounds like he came from the grid on tron

  • @TheYukikonata good call... something daft punkish!!

  • When Jake was good he was really good. When he was a heel, he came across as a psychopath. His attacks on the Ultimate Warrior and Randy Savage were the stuff of dark legend.

  • @Gorrrillla5 old school rules

  • he was my favorite lol.

  • this guy had so much potential to be the wwf champion too bad he was on drugs

  • this is proof. u dont need to have big muscles and have movie star looks to be a great wrestler. not like today.

  • Hopefully he'll be in this years Hall of Fame.....DAMNIT

  • May not have been the greatest athlete but he was the greatest performer. I remeber hating and being afraid of him as a kid.

  • One of the greatest at what he did. Didn't need a title to be among the elite... Trust Me ;)

  • Ha this vid is 3:16... Jake 3:16 says Do ya Trust Me??

  • This music is awesome. For some reason, I think it would really good for Anderson Silva's entrance music....there's something dark and ominous about it.

  • this version of jake the snake was by far the best. it was dark and full of thought. and the theme music is just icing on the cake.

  • Put Jake The Snake in the HOF already!

  • im scared...
