Jake “The Snake” Roberts is one of the most famous and unique professional wrestlers in the history of wrestling. Most kids who grew up with '90s fashion (and most mythology fans still do) had a python doll inseparable. Long hair, mustache, bad mood. "The Serpent" was a character as feared in the world of the WWF (now WWE) as he was in his youth. A dark past has made him one of the most complex figures in wrestling. Violence, rape, drugs, excesses... Molotov cocktails that symbolized his identity and still justify his path today. The beginning of the story is already unpleasant and complicated. Jake was born as a result of rape. His father abused his mother when he was only 12 years old and "Xylan" was born. A place where it is difficult to find a seat.
Jake Roberts made the jump to the WWF in 1986 after training for 12 years for independent wrestling companies. Just a month after his debut, he appeared on his first pay television show and began his steady rise to stardom. "The Serpent" was a dark and terrifying character. His promotions to sell matches and rivalries were unique. He was ahead of his time. Tough, dark, a master of psychological warfare... a very snake person who always takes his body to the ring and humiliates his opponent after defeating him. "Snake" was different and the fans loved it. Popular enthusiasm made him one of the best fighters of all time and, after his retirement, many experts consider him the best fighter of all time who never won an elite title. He got what he was looking for and had no reason not to surpass his father.
After undergoing massive crowdfunded back surgery, battling muscle cancer in his knee, and suffering a major scare when he passed out on a plane due to a brain injury, Jake "The Snake" Roberts is back as a professional. administrator. He recently signed with All Elite Wrestling (AEW) and appeared in one of the biggest wrestling promotions of the year.
He was normal, but "pure" and ghostly. He is a new snake and I am proud of myself. "I wouldn't be where I am today if it weren't for everything I've been through. It was a very difficult journey and Diamond Dallas Page guided me in the right direction. He has never let me down and I can never thank him enough. He gave me and my family a new opportunity in life. I am back with my children and they support me. "I am a great-grandfather, probably the best grandfather in history."
Tomorrow more and better
