The best thing about Jake was how articulate he was on the microphone. No-one delivered promo's better than him. Why did they not use him in the commentary/announcers position?
If there was no Jake, there would have not been the Texas Rattle Snake or especially the "Viper" as they call it. Only true legend who admitted never needing a world title belt to be a star.
I don't know why people are comparing him to Triple H calling him the "Cerebral Assassin" that was never Jake's nickname. He was his own guy, he needs not to be compared to anyone and his nicknames vary from "The Snake" to "The Founder of The DDT" so get it right guys.
@Scorpion14 because of his "trust" gimmick, making him supposedly help the Ultimate Warrior defeat the Undertaker only for him to betray him in the end, such as the term "never trust a snake."
@zubbutzi it's suppose to be poison, you know the poison spray to kill bugs or whatever else because that's what people associate and think of with snakes
See, this was when WWE, or WCW had class. Jake would always throw his snake in there when he won. The snake somwtimes bit people, and you don't see that today, OH NO, we got this gay shit like Dolph Ziggler(?!?!?!?) and Cody Rhodes.
He was one of my favorites back in the day.The heel version of Jake in 1992 was DA SHIT!!!! The promos he cut back in the day as both face & heel were ahead of his time.Guys like Batista should learn from this man how to cut a sick & obsessed bastard in regards to promos
This guy was scary as hell. Even back in the eighties when wrestling was more for the entire family. Before the undertaker came to the scene this guy gave us sinister, scary and darkness.
@nzoplkj true have you ever seen the Undertaker's this is my yard video taker says in the video that he learned quite a bit from Jake the snake Roberts
axtule Mr.perfect2000Z jake did both. he threw the snake to stop andre from giveing Big John a shoulder submission and jake saved john cus he knew john was NOT afraid of daimein the snake (i dont know how to spell the snakes name)
jake the snake roberst war vor the undertaker der beindruckste wresteler der wwe damals noch wwf .der leider nie einen wwe titel gewann oder world chamiion war in wwe das brauchte er auch nie ist trozdem einer der besten wrestler den es jemals gegeben hat,und einer der beindruckste
The Snake, the Macho Man, and a few other really need to be in the Hall of Fame. Jake had that dark and creepy thing going that made him so cool to watch. I really knew he was a dangerous force.( Or thought so) He was one of the all time greats.
The ominous one. I still get goosebumps hearing this music, reminding me of the Main Event in the 80's, and the big deal it seemed like at the time. Jake truly is a legend, and it's great that despite his personal demons, he's still with us, as apposed to so many of his peers who are not.
