"Real men cry folks, if their real." YES, so true. Men having feelings too!!
Gaaaaaay!
The best interview ever. His promos were bar none the best.
I got to meet Jake last year. He has been through hell and back, but it was great to see him back and doing better in life! Also, when in person, he is so much taller!!! Great guy, wish he would loosen up around his fans and not be so stiff.
Ya he always looked really big standing next to other people even in that beyond the mat movie
that rick rude story tastin jakes children was the realest nastiest classic funny shit i have ever heard in a interview,,I love shoot interviews,,jake def dont hold back ,,I wanna see his show that was enuf of a plug to sell me
I always try to grab every piece of knowledge from Jake when I can.
Thank you guys! Was great seeing Jake again and was an honor to share the panel with him! Aside from being a Hall of Famer, Legend, former tag team partner, and mentor, he is a true friend and love him like a brother. Psychology master and a walking miracle! Be sure to check out his movie www.jakethesnakemovie.com #TeamStro
It's a fucken no brainer, Jake should be in NXT teaching ring psychology.
Jake wrote the fucking book on ring psychology.
I feel for Jake, I first encountered him through Beyond The Mat where he talks about these issues with his Dad and I couldn't help but admire how brutally honest he was able to be about himself. I hope he's managed to put some of his demons to rest.
Eh, man and his brutal was probably BRUUUUTTAAALLL
The mans had quite a..... “Colorful” life, so to speak..... (Who am I kidding?
He’s lucky to be alive, fortunate to be sane, and blessed to be without need of a wheel chair or oxygen tank )
Oh and I feel like I should clarify that I am a huge Jake “the Snake” Roberts fan. My statements aren’t meant as criticisms or a passing of judgement. By his own admission, he spent a good portion of his life doing things the hard way. He often admits he was reckless. Not in the ring but in terms of partying and substance abuse
I was at this panel and I loved every bit of it! I bought his DVD right afterwards.
Man you're lucky! How did you like the dvd?
+Title Match Wrestling it was amazing!
Jake is so right he was one of the best wish him well!
Well said!
Jake "The Snake" Roberts can cut promo's better than any other wrestler
Great video you guys! Jake will always be one of the greats, nice to see him finally doing well in life!
I could listen to Jake all day. His performances were second to none because he was credible. Inside and outside of the Arena
Is that Silent Bob on the right?
5 years clean go jake go. i am near 20 years clean its a daily battle.
respect. ur r my idol ;-].
Ive beat alcohol too. I just stopped drinking 15 years ago, one day and never went back.
. I don't miss it or even think about it. It's not as hard as some drunks make it seem.
Respect and god bless.
Shanghai Pierce congrats i got 6 years next month
love this interview.
What a great upload! Thank you!
Thank you for watching brother! Keep it metal \m/
How easy it would have been for Jake to be just another casualty in pro wrestling. The conversation could have been: if only he got help, or if only somebody helped him. We would be documenting him as just another entry on an ever-growing list of human beings whose life had been cut prematurely short; but instead we get to learn from him, and rejoice his second chance at life.
You guys are awesome... Subscribed!
Appreciate you! Welcome and enjoy!
fantastic interview another job well done....
Appreciate your continued support! Thank you for the compliment
It was at the 4:23 mark I quickly realized this will be the realist interview I ever watched.. Jake The Immortal Snake!!
Yeah man...Jake is the best! Thank you for watching
this interview is great.was really funny.
Glad you enjoyed! Thank you for watching
i wud have loved to have gone out on the town with jake.. stay strong jake. ive been fighting addiction i know to a certain degree how it is. big repect from England mate.
What a legend Jake Roberts thank you DDP for saving this man an awesome human being so happy he is getting over his demons long like the snake
things i remember about the snake..1. feud against rick rude man i thought that was real. 2. when he ddt undertaker 2xs at wrestlemania and the undertaker sat up. i marked out at a kid at that. that was when finishers mattered and noone got up from a ddt. 3. ultimate warrior stuff . jake made those segmemts. 4. the cobra bite and savage fued. i always loved the snake one of my all time favs.
Jake was hilarious in this I’m laughing my ass off
Thanks TMW, another winner!
Thank you for watching!!!
He seems to light up almost as much as Scott Hall when Jake talks about the business.
I had no idea The Maestro got his start as Robbie Eagle in Smoky Mountain Wrestling!
I was listening to this while at work. 10:00 , Jake talked about wrestling schools not teaching students the simple things, then it cut into a Head and Shoulders commercial which started out "Shoulders...."
LOL, I had to look up. I thought shoulders (*working on strong shoulders/shoulder locks, etc) was one of the simple things they weren't teaching at schools. OMGosh, too funny! Anyways.
Mick Foley ripped his ear off, because someone tightened the ropes on him.
I guess I'll never know the full Rick Rude story since I live in the flatland boonies of SE Missouri!
Forty seconds into this and I'm laughing.
21:53 amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
sending links to your page.. been talkin bout this for a minute!
I can 100% confirm what Stro said. I was one of Nelson Royal's last students & we had to earn graduation. I'll never forget bumping in that hard-ass converted ring, rolling out & puking in that black toilet...
Jake is the only Wrestler EVER...! to have something bad to say about Sting.
I can hear this guy talking for hours
Was his second career a storyteller/comedian? He is REALLY good for someone that hasn't done so professionally.
jake? no. he was just a fantastic promo cutter and a bit of a tortured genuis .
Still is.
Lemme say one thing. In late 1990 and early 1991, Slaughter was the #1 heel in WWF and they gave him a title run. I get it, it was the perfect time for him to turn heel with the war and stuff and it was great for The American to finally triumph at WM7. But just imagine this, if it was Jake Roberts as a heel instead of Slaughter and Jake won the title in early 1991, and KEPT the title through WM7 and feuded with Randy Savage doing what they ended up doing anyway. I always fantasized that it was Jake rather than Slaughter. Nothing against Slaughter, but man..... Those damn addictions. I'm glad he said he didn't mean to cheat us, but he really did. We would have been treated to SO much more with him. But over that, it's better that he is doing so much better and he is still with us.
Jake was dead on about the wrestling schools/training. I could listen to him talk all day. Had a crush on him in the 80s, haha.
That kid with his grandma got a real education.
Him
And Rude must have had a blast back then😂😂
This is just fucking beautiful.
Truer words have never been spoken!
I have his dvds an personal autograph met him just a nice guy
lol i love jake
Jake is on fire
i wanna go to one of these things
Much respect to jake the snake
that story about rick rude was fucking awesome!!!
Get down on it
@Shane Wilson lmfao!!!
does jake know anything about his father's up bringing???? im sure knowing that will help...he seems like a good guy.. i believe he has hurt himself more than anyone else.. he look's like he's still going through some stuff... with that said...he's headed in the right direction.. good luck jake...went through something similar...
I like Jake but I kind of disagree with him on Mick Foley. Him losing his ear was NOT because of some reckless hardcore stunt he did. His head ACCIDENTALLY got tangled in the rope (ropes BTW that WCW never informed the wrestlers were made of actual telephone cables instead of traditional wrestling ropes.).. It was an ACCIDENT and nobody was to blame but WCW itself, not Vader, and certainly not Mick Foley
i just paused the vid to comment to say this, glad somebody said it first. Not only that but the ropes were actually killing him, he couldn't breathe.
How would Jake remember what happened with Foley? He was drunk and coked/cracked out all the time.
Get this movie up in google play please
Jake showed people how It's done this past Wednesday.
Jake the Snake is 100% right about the loss of territories being a death to talent. Case and point, only ONE territory wrestler remains on the roster: The Undertaker. And, can you think of a wrestler that can read a crowd and react appropriately, even though he now works maybe once a year, for the last 10 years?? That's how much the territories taught workers
Great point! There is a huge difference in in-ring psychology nowadays. Such a shame sometimes.
Jake is hilarious LMAO
Indeed lol
5 ads placed in this vid? holy shit thats greedy
lol an average 30 min TV show has 8 min of commercials. We only had 3 min in the entire thing.
We need Jake to change this business
Jake the Snake has joined the "Kiss Up to Vince McMahon Club", which is the "smart thing" to do, since decent paying gigs are hard to come by at his age. Jake was "most honest" about his true opinion of Vince in the 'Beyond the Mat' documentary in 1999. In 1992, Jake bailed on the WWE because Vince lied to him about offering him a position that was once held by Pat Patterson,. This broken promise happened on the heels of Patterson being accused of sexual harassment and therefore vacating the head writer position he had at WWE. Vince didn't want Patterson to think he was "being replaced" so he screwed over Jake Roberts, by retracting the agreement he had with Jake. Vince McMahon is a rat bastard, who treats most of his wrestlers like garbage, so this type of treachery doesn't surprise me in the least. Most recently Vince lied to Cody Rhodes, telling him that he could shed the 'Stardust' gimmick. In typical scumbag fashion, Vince changed his mind and decided to keep the Stardust gimmick for Cody, It's sad to see so many former wrestlers that Vince screwed over having to crawl back to him. I can only think of a handful of former WWE talent that will never grovel and beg to work for the WWE again, like Scott Steiner, Shane Douglas, and Raven. The former wrestler I have the "most respect for" who really "stuck it to Vice" is Sabu, who turned down a pay increase of 5 times what he was making at ECW by refusing to join McMahon's WWE.
man you love putting words in quotes don't you ?
Sabu also said he regrets saying NO to vince
James Barlow
I'm sure at some level Sabu laments turning down $250k a year at WWE to keep making $50k at ECW, but Sabu also said he didn't want to have to compromise his hardcore style and be limited by WWE management's rules. Harry Smith is happy wrestling for New Japan and Johnny Mundo enjoys Lucha Underground (in spite of lesser pay) because these guys don't have to compromise their in-ring styles. Money is a very big deal, but some superstars won't accept "more money for less freedom." It's like Aesop's parable: 'The Dog and the Wolf.'
Very good points!
Jake seams irritated he has to share intervew time. Keeps interrupting talking over him .
I love Jake but he is wrong about guys who " jump off a 20 ft cage." Not many, if any, matches are better than Foley/Undertaker at KOTR 98. Even Shawn Michaels, one of the best wrestlers of all time knew he had to do some crazy shit now and again.
the glass is empty stro
Hey , Kurt Angle summersaults from the top of a cage & is the best wrestler of all time
Did I see a little kid in the audience!? . . . erm . . . okaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyy then!
"Sex with a midget!".....😒
i agree with jake 100 percent ill take him over cena or the crap they got now. jake scared me as a kid that man could work llike a mic like no one else
greatest rick rude story?? no. pretty nasty actually
NXT builds ROBOTS and there is where WWE sucks they forget about Wrestling about being a Professional Wrestler. The Younger Fans just see people in the ring jumping up and down and how cool it looks. Jake The Snake Roberts is right and I agree with that. Perfect example, John Cena ..does the same thing over and over and over again, Real Professional Wrestling Fans hate that John Cena is 15 times Champion...OF WHAT?? The kids love it cause they only see the Lucky Charms colors Cena wears and that's it.Professional Wrestling has History too and it should matter today.
Your title says Jake the Snake, but more than half of it is the Maestro. Nobody wants to hear him.
Please refer to the timecodes we provided in the description.

thanks!
need more of these
thanks so much for posting, very nice of you!!!!!!!!!
8:11 who's this nobody?
I have a lot of respect for Jake, but he's clearly out of touch if he doesn't think the young wrestlers are being taught properly. They are absolutely learning how to work, and not just how to do flips and such.
I would say at least 80% of the training schools around are not teaching people how to work properly.
Most modern wrestling schools are shit. If your teacher is a guy who had less than five years in the business, you know that school is NOT a good one. There are very few legit wrestling schools left. Lance Storm's and Curtis Hughes' schools are probably two of the few legit wrestling schools left
Ok
Is that 'stro
why on earth would someone bring their kid to an R rated wrestling shoot? same kind of parents that let their children watch Grims Toy Show, I bet.
Great interview but Jake shouldn't be talking like that there's at least more than one kid there with their parents
Parents shouldn't have brought kids to a SHOOT interview with one of the most notoriously profane and filter-less wrestlers of all time.
The guy on the right looks like the love child of Bill Bailey and Kevin Smith.
Jason Townsend Yeah, and...?
Jason Townsend I know she is. She just transitioned. What's your point?
Jason Townsend Yawn! You are the worst troll ever, bro. Laters taters.
Jason Townsend So?

so this guy moves like Georgous George so he must be related then? wtf.....they were boxing buddies? wtf..wouldn't they have been brothers? boxing buddies...lmao... who is this guy? I move like Lebron James....he's my grand uncle...just found out. Hey Title Match Wrestling how much did Jake strongarm you into a payoff for his buddy that nobody knows about?
Stro was brought in by the promoter to speak with Jake during this panel. If there's something you don't like you can use the timecodes we provided to choose a more appealing discussion. Anyway we like and respect Jake & Stro - both great guys.
Vince Russo an Ed F and Disco just buried this Stro guy on a podcast...he had 5 minutes af fame in wcw and nothing before and nothing after. He doesn't even know who created his gimmick it wasn't Bischoff it was Ed and Vince Russo. ApparentlyStro buried them on a podcast. I f u listen to his interveiew when he tessl Apter about his grandaddy...Apter rolls his eyes. James Brown would'nt have given a shit who this guy is. Dude your 3 minutes of fame is over and you can probally book this guy for free pizza and beer
Love Jake.. Peter Brady in the middle is annoying and stiff. Kevin Smith on the end there is too baked off the blunt Jake probably bogarded.
rick rude is dead why is this in the title
Because it's a story from THE PAST, idiot. He told a STORY of Rick Rude from the PAST. jesus. The title doesn't say RICK RUDE IS ACTUALLY IN THE VIDEO. DUMBASSES TODAY
Love you Jake, you're the best. But, I think you're a tad off base and a little over opinionated on some of these issues.
I still think Jake falls off the wagon on a semi-regular basis. He seems half in the tank in this video. This guy can't beat the booze or his crack addiction. Jake is overrated by everyone.
Yeah he's wrecked here
I thought he died
Mc full has more views jumping off a 20 foot cage that anything he's put out....jealous maybe???
Jake clearly had that white privilege background we are all told about
What do you mean beat someone ? It is scripted .
Jake is so wrong about wrestlers having to do crazy stuff because they can't wrestle. There are loads of amazing wrestlers that also do high spots. Speaking of high spots, how many times did Jake smoke crack before a match to be able to perform.
this is BS coming microphones
Interesting interview with a has been and a never was
Look at that manspreading under the table
nice way to talk in front of children. sick.
Shut up you holier than though piece of shit. Most kids today are punks who bitch about their parents and christmas gifts on Twitter. And the"kids" he's referring to are like 16 and 17 year old TEENAGERS, not actual children under 12 years old
There were kids there in the audience that were 10 years old. So you shut up.
It's the parents' fault for bringing a young kid to a shoot interview with Jake Roberts. Had to have known it was gonna get raunchy.
Cry about it bitch
I agree, he could have left the vulgar stuff out and still be interesting
misleading not just a Jake interview....... whoever this maestro is???, he takes up half the damn interview, fraudulent video
Taking crybaby lessons from Bret Hart I see.
taking sheepish fanboy keyboard warrior bullshit from the internet i see
why on earth would someone bring their kid to an R rated wrestling shoot? same kind of parents that let their children watch Grims Toy Show, I bet.
