Jake "The Snake" Roberts had his false teeth come out of his mouth during a recent wrestling match with Casey Thompson at an indie show on 3/3 in Davie, Florida.
Roberts' appearance during the match was quite embarrassing. Roberts had a hard time getting up after going down, not to mention that he looked really out of shape. He looked disoriented in the ring at times as well. In regards to his teeth, Thompson delivered a forearm to Roberts while he was tied up on the ropes and his false teeth flew out of his mouth. The ref then kicked the teeth to the corner so that they wouldn't get stepped on. A security guard then grabbed them and gave them to Roberts, who then lodged them back into his mouth. Unfortunately, they didn't seem to fit correctly as Roberts may have also gotten a swollen jaw from the forearm.
After the show, Roberts told people at his gimmick table to always brush their teeth so that they don't lose them when they get older.

That's tough, but glad he's trying to teach the youth too, something positive. Cool he's still having fun Wrestling and making apperances. He was definitely a legend and great gimmick.

Yeah, Roberts is a Hall Of Fame Wrestler, and true Classic WWF Wrestler that had a big impact. So it is always good to see him on any level.
