I just found this rare video of Roberts on youtube that made
me laugh:

I've never seen this before but what are your memories of Jake in the WWF or other promotions we may have missed?

Do you have a favorite Jake The Snake feud?

Have you ever met him?

One thing I heard was they were going to book Jake vs Hogan when Hogan was the champ and Jake was still a heel but they never made a program of it because of fear of Hogan getting booed as Roberts was so over.

Iv met jake the snake, he wrestled along with some uk guys at my local theatre, they have wrestling shows there pretty much every month and now and again have some retro wwf guys wrestling there too (iv also met scotty too hotty and gangrel here). He was a really nice guy gave me a autograph and stuff he was great, we didnt really talk much as he had to go but yeh he was a cool guy and im happy to say iv met him

Jake was never really a favorite of mine but he was certainly a good entertainer. I guess I liked the night he went after Andre with Daimien.

I think the angle with Macho Man with pretty awesome, I couldn't believe the snake actually bit Savage - now that was savage!
The thing with Roberts is that his character was really him, how crazy the world of wrestling is lol

Okay forgive me but did Jake pass away? I apologize I haven't heard anything if he had.

Nahhh he hasnt passed away, he was quiet big a few weeks ago when he turned up to a indie show drunk as anything and making a right show of himself.

He is very much still alive
