Jake "the Snake" Roberts

Recommended Posts

Finally a niche subject ranters can go "Who?" about I know of!

 

Hope Jake doesn't die in 2015, mind, he's a bloody legend.

He's supposed to be dry now, but his years of abuse will have cut years off his life. And has had a brush with cancer in the past year...

He's got brain cancer iirc.

Inducted into the WE Hall of Fame - Class of 2014, the same class as The Ultimate Warrior and he died within 3 days of the induction ceremony.

Solid choice

 

I suspect him or Abdullah is likely the next big name from Wrestling to pass on

He seemed to have all sorts of cancer lately. "»I've gotta have more stuff taken out of my chest, it's cancer,« Roberts said. (…) Back in February, he told TMZ Sports that he needed to have a cancerous tumor in his knee removed."

 

So that brain tumour he has is presumably a metastasis of an advanced cancer. The thing in his knee was reported to be "muscular cancer" (rhabdomyosarcoma?). Whatever it is, his chances of dying this year would appear to be high.

 

OTOH, he has quite different expectations.

I worked as Commissioner with Jake at a few wrestling shows in the UK. He used to drink pint glasses of vodka before his matches!

The thing about Superstar is much like the will to outlive her sister kept Olivia and Joan alive so long,he is gonna try and will himself to live long enough to outlast Abdullah The Butcher so he can spit on his grave.

They already have "Billy Graham" on the list, putting on both of them would only confuse people.

 

If "Superstar" dies and the "Reverend" does not, the committee could always pretend that they had always intended to put him there and the erroneous occupation/age figure was "just a mix-up on the side of a stupid website admin. He was promptly sacked and replaced with a more competent one."

Was the abnormality on his brain proved to be cancerous?

Not really... more like "idiots" for putting him on (fyi it wasn't me or most of the other people here who chose the selections...). The guy's fine! Good luck to him etc.

 

BTW, can a snake beat a vulture? It's a long time since I've played Paper Scissors Rock, I dunno what all the latest variants are.

Jake is now talking about 2016 Wrestlemania, don't think he's going anywhere this year. http://www.twnpnews.com/2015/02/jake-on-possibly-wrestling-for-wwe-reaction-to-his-new-doc-more/

JTS 'talking' isn't medical certainty, but this was a bad pick from the get-go, see my post 1-1-2015. Committee shat itself with this one. Of course this means I'll be reading his obit later today.

He now does something called DDP yoga.

Is that some kind of yoga used to piss off DDP players? Wicked.

Quite frankly, regardless if he has turned things around or not, I wish the guy nothing but health and happiness!!
