      You haven’t watched their doc or their story, have you?
      He has talked before about how he’s tried to help many times. I think they went years without talking even in their wrestling days because Dallas told Jake he’s done with him. At the start of the doc, I think Dallas hadn’t seen him in several years (my memory says 6 but I may be wrong).
      Addiction is a bitch. It was on Jake to hit that point he was ready to change.

And Dallas Page is an angel sent from heaven in terms of what he does in rehabilitating folks. Whether it be through addiction, injury, motivation, etc...I firmly believe that God didn't take you Jake because he had a HIGHER purpose for you to be an example for those that are still struggling. And now is your chance to GIVE BACK to those that are. I think by continuing to do good for yourself and for others you will satisfy the good lord's gift he has given you. And that is your LIFE BACK...God bless man your a legend and inspiration.

    Recovering addict of 21 years. I LOVE seeing this. Doesn’t matter if they are famous or not.
    God kept Jake alive because He knew where Jake was going to be, what he could do, and how many thousands of people he could reach by getting sober and sharing his story.
