WWE Hall of Famer and All Elite Wrestling Star Jake "The Snake" Roberts recently appeared on the "DDP Snake Pit" podcast, where he talked about a variety of topics such as his dislike for Japanese Strong Style wrestling and how there is no need for it because the fans already know that pro wrestling is a work, so why is there a need to beat the living sh*t out of each other.
Jake Roberts said:
“For those who like it, go ahead. Beat the s*** out of each other. You know, there’s no need for it. The fans already know it’s a work, so why are you beating the f*** out of each other? Because you can? You want to show somebody how tough you are? If you want to show somebody how tough you are, go out on the street corner somewhere and pick a fight. You’ll be alright. Don’t put me through it.”
Jake Roberts also talked about the type of match he would rather have.
Jake Roberts said:
“I’d much rather have a match where two guys are trying to perform and give me their very best, you know what I’m saying? Make it exciting.”
