Jake's rebound story is one of the most gut wrenching and real stories out there. So to see him looking better than ever is a wonderful and, kind of emotional, thing to see
This. !!!! If he can do it I don’t wanna hear ANY ADDICT I DONT CARE IF YOUR SHOOTING DOPE OR SMOKING METH, OR NEED A PINT TO ROLL OUTTA BED YOU CAN DO IT IF U WANT IT BAD ENOUGH...
If I was Vince, I'd show him my checkbook and say "$200-grand and a new car". See if he bites at that. Not sure how much his entire collection is valued at though.....looks like a lot.
I have seen that guy from the “G.W.C” give up a couple nice things from his collection now, just so that others could have a chance to enjoy them items too. I think that’s a pretty awesome thing to do and I really do hope that Trip and Steph do something nice for him and his family. THANK YOU BROTHER FOR BEING SELFLESS!
@@chriskay1449 nah , he’s a legend like all legends are treated differently than current active talent roster . If Vince can give Jericho an exception he can allow these legends to show
@@EzraDair yeah, nobody gets a legend status nowadays, and wrestling is just isn’t as big as it used to be, when I happen to watch some of it now I can see empty seats but back then they could fill out a whole football stadium
With the amount of “brother” thrown around in this video you’d think it was the Hulk Hogan episode. I was supposed to meet Jake at a comicon last year but it was cancelled, l’d love to meet him. What an icon. His Macho Man impression had me in stitches.
Mannnnnn , this is the 2nd time this guy had something WWE needed and he didn't charge them for it. With that being said , I really hope Vince or Triple H blesses this guy with front seat tickets and backstage passes for him and his children whenever WWE is in his town 💯.. Can't keep on taking things away from the guy without some sort of compensation 💰.. He's a good dude ✊
Oh yes they all get together for one big Christmas party each year didn't you know... No let's be real. WWE gets in contacts with its legends when its convenient for them and they feel there is something to be gained from it. A number of guys who sacrificed a lot for WWE have not receive much love in return since they left for various reasons. WWE, like any big business, makes it decisions primarily based on profit rather than helping people.
Biggest thing we learned out this was how scared of snakes he was!! Considering he scared everyone else, just knowing he was scared to is mind blowing 😯😯
It is one of the most interesting things about him. Sometimes I’m the same way. Scared of them in the wild, but domesticated they are easy to get used to.
This dude is such an awesome fan of the sport. He appreciates what it means to the people who grew up watching it. The WWE should give him and his family lifetime free tickets to the events and when the get the museum going bring him in for a special pre opening tour. He’s given them two items out of his personal collection for free.
it's crazy how after i haven't watched wrestling in 20+ years these moments bring back such a positive memory and experience that i always forget my ear drums are gunna get blasted at the end of every video.
The interview Jake gave with Joe Rogan and the impression of Macho Man is so great I have rewatched it so many times! Jake is a true success story god love him.
A friend of mine used to be a jobber for the old WWF in the early 90s. He was known as Brett Tyler. There are a few videos on RUclips where he is in a tag match with another guy jobbing to WWF superstars. He ended up opening his own independent wrestling company around the year 2000 (the Millennium Wrestling Federation), which he later sold. His ex-wife also destroyed some of his old wrestling videos and memorabilia after their divorce.
Jake Roberts is one of the finest men l have ever had the pleasure to have known and worked out with , Jake being an icon in wrestling history truly a great man… God Bless you Brother…
The snake bite was awesome. Both guys were afraid, but they each tackled their fears. And even though they say they are afraid of snakes, i think they're mixing up fear with dislike hahsh, bevUse these guys are fearless to do something they're afraid of.
1980s to early 2000s WWE is the definition of be grateful while it’s here cause you’ll never know when it’ll be gone and i didn’t even get to watch it in it’s time
jake is my hero as a kid. he was hated but i loved him. in my old age seeing him get well and struggling myself as i age. made him my hero again. hope he sees this. you are the best man.
@@eternallife5070 A wrestler who actually knows the business and knows what it takes to get over? Thats the problem today in WWE. Business people who dont know anything about Wrestling.
@@chadk890 but WWE is going down after hhh taken over, while Vince took WWE to the greatest and he is a business guy... PS. Business guy can be taught to wrestle but wrestler can't become a business guy!!!
I never understood how Jake always said he was scared yet he touched it, kissed it, and played with it every week! That comes off to me as a person that "Loves" snakes!
I'm from Detroit Michigan as well, you sir are a true legend =) I grow up watching WWF in the 80's & Jake the snake was one of my favorite wrestlers to watch. Your WWF collection is amazing love to take a tour someday.
I met jake and took pictures with him like a decade ago when I was little about 9-10 years old at a hooters in North Carolina where I’m from. He’s cool
I met Jake at a restaurant in Tampa. Awesome dude! DDP was there as well, started off kinda a d-bag, but when I told him I was a doctor who recommended his yoga to my patients, he was then “oh great brother!”
This man who runs that museum, so much respect for him. Doesn’t want money, just wanted his kids to hangout with foley me have both the bag and socko preserved for future generations
My Dad loved watching this on TV in the late 80's so much. At 16 I bought him tickets 🎟 to Wrestlemania in Detroit for his Birthday. He was as excited as a kid is on Christmas. Rest in Peace Dad. I love you always 💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔
Man you would never get away with letting a cobra bite someone on TV for the sake of entertainment these days. These were the best times for wrestling.
You’d think the legends coming to your house would be better than any item you could own. The GwC guy is always super cool, and respects the history. Good man!
Congrats, I dont know if he remember all his journeys and tours as a wrestler , but even down in Mexico's Lucha Libre he came to do great performs vs Connan, a real icon. God bless him, we all respect him.
The coolest collector and wrestling fan I ever seen brother just gave them the bag after the fact that he paid for it for his own collection was really cool to see
I vividly remember the first time I saw that Superstars episode with the cobra biting Savage, they put a huge X across the screen covering the scene....
With everything Jack gave to the WWF and has gone thru in his life. Jack deserves alot more then this segment. Shout out to DDP for helping turn around Jack the Snake and Razor Ramon's life....
Jake your an inspiration to all and I commend you for that. From a addict of 19 years thank you. You were at the top and I still hope to be there one day .. You have given me the inspiration to achieve that thank you..👍 Jake I'm still an addict we all are till we die peace and love brother. 👍
Stay up to date on all of A&E's premieres at aetv.com/schedule
I wanna watch some HBK one
That macho man impression is out of this world. I'm in tears.
Find him telling the story on Joe Rogan, more of the same!
The macho man impression is awesome!
Sounds a bit like flair too at times
Facts… 💯
By 89 I was 14 yrs old and WWF was in its hayday . prime time best ever 👍👌
This collector is such a good dude. WWE should give him lifelong tickets to shows, he deserves it.
Fact's
He's a plant and not a real collector.
@@vinnycarrocia7511 So WWE would just put a bunch of WWE stuff in his house? How stupid are you?
That dude is a wrestler in training
The should give him a job in promotions!!
the fact that jake was afraid of snakes but when he heard that bell he went into his character with no cracking its just amazing
He's said it many times. Aurelian Smith Jr. is afraid of snakes. Jake "The Snake" Roberts isn't.
I’m so glad to see Jake the snake Roberts doing much better healthwise And it’s so nice to see him happy
For real, mans had a rough time for years, glad he’s still kicking
Hes got an awesome documentary covering his recovery with DDP, definitely worth a watch
@@JD-ee8wp The resurrection of Jake the Snake Roberts
@@sportsfan3168 Yea man that's the one a must see for a wrestling fan
Watch the latest episode of dark side of the ring. It's good to see his family is all clean and are wanting to work to become a family again
Jake's rebound story is one of the most gut wrenching and real stories out there. So to see him looking better than ever is a wonderful and, kind of emotional, thing to see
This. !!!! If he can do it I don’t wanna hear ANY ADDICT I DONT CARE IF YOUR SHOOTING DOPE OR SMOKING METH, OR NEED A PINT TO ROLL OUTTA BED YOU CAN DO IT IF U WANT IT BAD ENOUGH...
I love the fact that Jake is getting old. He deserves to be able to grow old.
100% deserves a motion picture film!
DDP is a saint
At this point buy the collector out or make him have something to do with the museum.
For real!
He should be the tour guide, the guy knows his s**t & obviously loves the WWE.
His museum is the WWE museum
I’m pretty sure they have paid him plenty already lol.
@@ZachJay1207 his kids have seen two legends. I think he is happy
If I was Vince, I'd show him my checkbook and say "$200-grand and a new car". See if he bites at that. Not sure how much his entire collection is valued at though.....looks like a lot.

I doubt it's being donated, but instead they pre worked a deal and the theatrics of course are for the ratings
@@batmansdad3195 it’s a work for sure
lol u simpleton. lol
It's really cool to see Jake in speaking terms with WWE, despite working for a rival company.
This was filmed before he joined AEW.
I think the WWE unerstands he needs to make a living.
@@chriskay1449 nah , he’s a legend like all legends are treated differently than current active talent roster . If Vince can give Jericho an exception he can allow these legends to show

4:25 the expression on Jake's face says it all. Smiles from ear to ear genuinely happy.
The Collector GWC should just have his own show
He and Jim Cornette should collaborate on something.
I looked him up on RUclips, he has a channel
@@tsfromtx name
@@tsfromtx i found bro
What an amazing collection
This collector is electric!!! He should work for the WWE he’s got passion to match anyone and the impressive mic skills what a legend
God bless DDP going out of his way to rehabilitate these wrestlers.
Foreal I do his program to get a good strech before working out
DDP was one of my favorite wrestlers too. I still the talking action figure of him.
With the amount of “brother” thrown around in this video you’d think it was the Hulk Hogan episode.
I was supposed to meet Jake at a comicon last year but it was cancelled, l’d love to meet him. What an icon. His Macho Man impression had me in stitches.
Glad Jake has got his life together. I was a fan.
DDP really saved him
Yes!!!! Ty DDP! Also happy he is back with his wife Cheryl!
Great to see Jake still around even after all of his health problems as so many of the stars from the 80's and early 90's are no longer with us.
I'm so glad Jake is doing well. It was the greatest heel moment nearly of all time. When Randy got bite by the snake.
Yup absolutely
Unreal. I just can't express how much this show means to me seeing all these historical items from my favorite wrestlers.
Mannnnnn , this is the 2nd time this guy had something WWE needed and he didn't charge them for it. With that being said , I really hope Vince or Triple H blesses this guy with front seat tickets and backstage passes for him and his children whenever WWE is in his town 💯..
Can't keep on taking things away from the guy without some sort of compensation 💰.. He's a good dude ✊
It's a work, brother. They for sure paid him. Just not on camera.
I wouldn't want anyone knowing I was a paid 4g or more living in Detroit.
@@purplereigninblood Yet he was willing to let them see all the valuable memorabilia he has?
And not just any old items. Mankind's shirt and Jake's bag not sure I could have parted with both.
Steve Morand Is such a Legend! I can't imagine that would have been cheap and I hope he gets the recognition he deserves for doing that! Great guy!
totally agree...1000
it's nice to know that WWE still keep in contact with Jake Roberts
They keep in contact with a lot of the veterans.
@@TuberoseKisser in know but
i thought they wouldn't be taking since Jake Roberts is in AEW
Oh yes they all get together for one big Christmas party each year didn't you know... No let's be real.

birdman3D yep...
@@TuberoseKisser lol vince doesnt take care of his veterans in fact Diamond dallas page helped jake the snake recover..

@@thedesertrat_9514 funny same with kamen crocodiles I'd never get in the wild with one but I had 2 as pets and in captivity they were fine
Steve is a legend, passionate about something his whole life, and now it’s paying off in experiences, so cool to see
This dude is such an awesome fan of the sport. He appreciates what it means to the people who grew up watching it. The WWE should give him and his family lifetime free tickets to the events and when the get the museum going bring him in for a special pre opening tour. He’s given them two items out of his personal collection for free.
That collector has some of the best, coolest energy I've ever felt. I wanna buy him a beer and listen to him talk.
GWC dude rocks. He truly appreciates wrestling history.
Jake did a PERFECT Macho Man impression!
it's crazy how after i haven't watched wrestling in 20+ years these moments bring back such a positive memory and experience that i always forget my ear drums are gunna get blasted at the end of every video.
That dude is so cool. Wwe needs to get him involved in back stage segments. He loves wrestlings. The way he lit up seeing Jake. That’s a fan.
I feel like if anybody should be the tour guide for a WWE museum or Hall of Fame, it should be GWC!
I love the fact that jake chaged his snake bags thinking of the snakes comfortably
I love this collector! He's such a nice guy 👏🏽
Not really🙄😒
It's awesome that just having his kids see the old stars is payment enough for some of the items
The interview Jake gave with Joe Rogan and the impression of Macho Man is so great I have rewatched it so many times! Jake is a true success story god love him.
Jake is a really underrated performer both inside and outside the ring... the man could act
He's not underrated at all, he's legit one of the most beloved and highly respected legends of the Golden era.
This G.W.C dude could legit be a Manager. Got the persona and slang for days BROTHA 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
It Sucks his ex wife burned all his stuff an gear. Wouldve been cool to see all the more stuff jake had treasured away

@@BornAgainRN thhat sucks
Loved Jake the snake 🐍 when I was I kid.
He had that lovable good/bad character, and the walk in theme was epic!
One of the best Randy impressions ever.
Jake the Snake was one of my favourite WWF stars growing up, and I'm happy that he seems to be in a good place.
Honestly the wwe gotta hook up gwc for life backstage the whole 9 Steve is the man
Jake Roberts is one of the finest men l have ever had the pleasure to have known and worked out with , Jake being an icon in wrestling history truly a great man… God Bless you Brother…
I have so much emotional attachment to the WWE that I’m watching all of these videos with eyes full of tears, it’s crazy how time flies by
I'm so glad Jake is doing much better now. He is a happy man.
The snake bite was awesome. Both guys were afraid, but they each tackled their fears. And even though they say they are afraid of snakes, i think they're mixing up fear with dislike hahsh, bevUse these guys are fearless to do something they're afraid of.
JTSR is definitely top 10 in my book🐐
This collateral should get and award
He might aswell just give them everything he has at this point. 🤣 hope he is being well looked after behind the scenes
1980s to early 2000s WWE is the definition of be grateful while it’s here cause you’ll never know when it’ll be gone and i didn’t even get to watch it in it’s time
1:25 You guys are awesome for leaving the last part of the video call in.
3:45 imagine being that kid with ptsd from watching a wwe match lol
A blast from the past. Great 2 see them again after all these years
jake is my hero as a kid. he was hated but i loved him. in my old age seeing him get well and struggling myself as i age. made him my hero again. hope he sees this. you are the best man.
Jake The Snake Roberts was one of the best on the mic. He's a really good talker.
Love this Guy Heart of a True fan I mean even getting to have time with Legends & sharing the moment with his kids yaw that’s purely Awesome
Jakes story about Macho never gets old especially the voice 😭🤣😂
Jake seeing and touching his old bag was like a man being reunited with his dog
I still can’t take HHH serious in the business role , not a knock or anything he just seems to restricted now ..
So who would you have wanted instead?

Called playing a character
The roar of the crowd probably helped put him in a different mindset to play the character role.
Whoever would have thought Jake The Snake is scared of snakes😳
The amount of times they say brother in this clip 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I'm from Detroit Michigan as well, you sir are a true legend =) I grow up watching WWF in the 80's & Jake the snake was one of my favorite wrestlers to watch. Your WWF collection is amazing love to take a tour someday.
A happy Jake Roberts makes me so happy I literally cry. He deserves all the best in the world.
1:04 When Hulk Hogan fell out of the ring comically slow 🤣
He is giving his collection away and David Chuddy is basically robbing them
That has to be the most expensive us army issue laundry bag I’ve ever seen.

At the end of all this, GWC needs to be in the WWE hall of fame for preserving iconic collection pieces
the true WWE FANS with one who really honour the relics of WWE
Love Jake's impression of Macho Man
GWC museum should have a sign in museum , thanking them for being so kind !!👍👍👊🏼👊🏼
Man you would never get away with letting a cobra bite someone on TV for the sake of entertainment these days. These were the best times for wrestling.
Yup... And it stayed on Randy's arm for so long because they couldn't get it to unlock its jaw to let go. Randy was a good sport for doing it 😅
It’s crazy how spot on Jake’s impersonation of macho man is
You’d think the legends coming to your house would be better than any item you could own.
The GwC guy is always super cool, and respects the history. Good man!
sucha good dude that GWC guy is. Kudos to you and beautiful family thats what you call a real fan
Jake is my great uncle hes a great person deserves all this spotlight hes getting
Congrats, I dont know if he remember all his journeys and tours as a wrestler , but even down in Mexico's Lucha Libre he came to do great performs vs Connan, a real icon. God bless him, we all respect him.
The coolest collector and wrestling fan I ever seen brother just gave them the bag after the fact that he paid for it for his own collection was really cool to see
Imagine coming to work and being told, "Tonight you have to get chewed on by a cobra" 😂
I remember when Jake "The Snake" was unlockable on WWE Smackdown vs RAW 2006 via PSP connection, i buy a PSP only for unlock him.
"The snake's gonna get to me tonight." - Macho Man
That guy knew how to do business & put someone over. 2 of the GOATS
just give this guy a section at the wwe museum. this guy has an insane collection
I vividly remember the first time I saw that Superstars episode with the cobra biting Savage, they put a huge X across the screen covering the scene....
The amount of brothers in this video 😂😂
They need a series of these wrestlers doing retirement stuff together, like playing golf or planting a garden.
That 8-bit Jake the Snake shirt in the beginning is AMAZING!
With everything Jack gave to the WWF and has gone thru in his life. Jack deserves alot more then this segment. Shout out to DDP for helping turn around Jack the Snake and Razor Ramon's life....
Out of all the people who do macho mans impression, Jake is number 1 at it, Also Dear wwe can we have the collector man have a storyline in wwe ? 😂.
Bruce Pritchard is good also
That's two amazing items this guy has given back to the WWE for free. GWC is the definition of a Man of Character and Class.
Jake The Snake Roberts. WHAT A HEEL. Legendary
GWC is awesome he is all about preserving history and never charges them he is a real fan
This collector is a bada$$! Love this show we need more!!!
Jake the Snake was the perfect heel, he could held your attention without ever raising his voice. I'm glad he is doing so good.
Now that's a fan
Jake your an inspiration to all and I commend you for that. From a addict of 19 years thank you. You were at the top and I still hope to be there one day .. You have given me the inspiration to achieve that thank you..👍 Jake I'm still an addict we all are till we die peace and love brother. 👍
