Jesus, he looks miles better than the Beyond the Mat days. DDP deserves a fucking humanitarian award. To take not a thing away from Jake's journey, grit and willpower to get past the demons. Makes my day
Wrestlers have said when Macho Man first became a star, many of the lower indy wrestlers would seek him out to challenge him at bars. Macho man was so worried about getting jumped that he got the Dynamite Kid and Rick Rude to be his body guards and to go where he went. No one messed with Macho Man ever.
Indy Wrestlers? I thought they were for the rival NWA territories?
Dynamite Kid was a mean bastard but he was a pioneer in the ring. So much of his stuff is ingrained into the style used by a lot of the best workers
@jimmie jenkins not really you could look like Donald trump that's bad karma
It's sad that such an awesome worker was also a POS and a bully. I wish I was there when Rougeau gave him a receipt and his teeth fell out.
I was just thinking about that wrestling mt.Rushmore and if there was a true one, all political bs aside. He has to be on it
I'm glad he's doing better. Thanks DDP.
Dynamites doing a lot better, he can feel his legs now... how did DDP help that? (I know damn well what you mean)
The snow falling in the background has a sort of warm feeling and jake even though now on oxygen is in a pretty good way. It's a miracle he is still alive . Thanks ddp
Jake is a true legend, one of the most entertaining wrestlers of all time.
Gareth Cullen up the boys in orange
Tiocfaidharla ya prick
You as a British man, what's your opinion about Dynamite incidents?
For all that's said about Jake - he's always had something about him and still has - interesting guy
The brits have that warrior streak instilled in them, they started prize fighting what we know as boxing now, at one stage them ruled half the world. You have to respect that, as Jake said there rough tough SOBs.
Jake has a great ability to do the voice of fellow wrestling comrades
I could listen to Jake Roberts, Bret Hart and Jim Cornette tell wrestling stories all day long.
Jake The Snake was the ultimate heel and deserved a title belt. Such a shame he went off the rails but he's looking well here. Congrats to DDP.
And the irony there is those three do not like each other...
1:10. Jake has a hell of a great dynamite impression.
Kinda sounds like Forrest Gump.
Black Phoenix 89 hahaha. He does a bit, but it's prob been about 30 years since he saw him last and I bet he doesn't have too many north English pals in his life so must be hard to remember the accent. Some parts are spot on...but yeah... Some parts def gump!
No. I actually understood what Jake said. Lol
If you haven't already you should hear his impression of Randy Savage. he has him practically to a T, as well as his mannerisms.
Jake looks in such good shape here!
I love seeing ol Jake the snake recovered and in better health. He was always one of my favs. He's a great story teller too. Definitely in my top 5 all time favorite wrestlers. Him, Brutus the Barber, Sting, and the legendary Legion of fuckin Doom!! Road Warriors we're the greatest of all time.
Sad to hear hat he died today R.I.P Dynamite Kid. True British wrestling legend.
Brilliant interview. More with the legend that is jake please 👍🏻
''his eye, nose or chin?'' LOL!!
Jake: I don't Know
Dynamite: Well then I'll do all 3.
😂
Amazing seeing a shoot interview with proper lighting, a mic, and in focus.
Those RF and Highspots and KC shoots are so bad. Like they're all shot on a VHS tape.
Good to see Jake looking good. Keep it goin.
Awesome little interview. Jake rules!
Jake trying to do an English accent 😂😂😂
The Rougeau's retaliated for Dynamite bushwhacking them. It was fair.
Totally agree Dynamite Kid had that coming from Jacques Rougeau for sure.
Ingur Lund Not to mention he was an all around piece of trash and a bully.
thatdopegirl he wasn't a bully he was English the English play rough it the way they are raised
@@jamiebushby729 Well, he lost some teeth for playing rough.
@@arjacfellhand838 he got sucker punched and they ran away but I suppose it was fair because kid did beat up rougeau little brother but dont run away when you sucker punch someone it's a bitch move they should of had a fight and shake hands after and forget about it
@02:25
Why does Jake
blame Davey-Boy Smith
for the heat between the
Rougeau Bros. and Dynamite??
From what I've gathered,
it sounds like Kurt Henning
was the real instigator
(besides Dynamite, that is).
Davey boy said it was hennig, and vince believed him it wasn’t it was davey himself
i just watch this for Jake's impersonation of Dynamite
If we do a follow up interview with him I think he should do the whole interview in that accent.
make it happen!! lmao
awesome interview ...we need more of this !!!
The Kid's problem was that he beat the hell out of his opponents and himself. He did not hold back.
It's called passion, grit, intensity of professional wrestlers of the '70s and '80s era/
I never cared for the Hannibal character, but love his interviews with all of these stars. Good job Hannibal!!
Jake has one of the greatest minds for the wrestling business
that snow falling ing the back round says it all. i am glad jake is still around to tell these stories.
His dynamite impression sounds like Lemmy
Jake is a true legend
Dynamite wasn't the biggest dude, but he was tough as nails. Not scared of anybody. He would have gone toe to toe with Andre if it came down to it.
Dynamite was a freaking psychopath.
He is literally a sociopath.
Talk about people who don't have a clue about the dynamite kid!! So shut the hell up!!
@Ryan Godly If Scott fought Dynamite, he would have beaten the holy crap out of him.
Dynamite wanted to break his nieces legs for insurance money. So yes he’s a psychopath.
One less piece of shit in the world now.
Rest In Peace Tom billington the greatest of all time
Dynamite 🧨 Kid was the most exciting. Nobody better during his time.
For being recovered well in recovery he stil holds onto a lot of hatred and talks bad about a lot of wrestlers who are not here. He has to let that stuff go if he wants to continue to be successful in his recovery. Not to mention Davey boy has a son, have some respect for his British bulldog Jr.
Those are very fair things you say but to be honest, I think he only went negative when he was recalling how Bulldog caused suffering for other people.
I thought it was Curt Hennig that stirred all the shit between Dynamite and the Rougeau brothers?
mr perfect was not even involved yet
+ToonandBBfan rogeau suspects it was caused by Hennig, but he doesn't know what happened for sure. regardless, dynamite was a violent psychopath
+ToonandBBfan I've heard that, Henning was cutting there clothes and saying it was the bulldogs to cause heat, I've heard that in a few different interviews, some one said they seen him doing it.
+ToonandBBfan
Curt Hennig is believed to have started it with his prank, what Jake means is that David didn't exactly try to calm Dynamite down, instead doing the opposite.
+James Bernstone
Ramond mentioned that all eyes were on Curt, but in the end nothing was confirmed for sure.
Jake, your eyes are so clear, you're a rich man.
by far the coolest dude to ever step in the ring, and didn't even have to say a word ...... dude was charisma personified
Jake you're a legend love to sit and listen to you on a session
Dynamite was a mini Haku.
Never heard anyone except the Hart family say anything positive about Davey Boy Smith.
Dynamite schooled everyone. One of the greatest wrestlers-Ever. Huge in Japan. Bit of an ahole, but as a wrestler he was probably the best in history.
why isn't he or the bulldog in the hall of fame yet????
+kieron20069 - from what I understand, Dynamite Kid was an extremely horrible human being behind the scenes, doing a lot of drugs and beating his wife and kids. And since WWE was willing to distance themselves from their biggest star for racist comments made in a private conversation, I guess this is just them showing some consistency.
+Omar Harris the hall of fame should be based on talent and what that individual has done to impact the business. Their private lives or popularity with the boys shouldnt be effected. the ultimate warrior was hard to get on with and was even rumoured to have pulled a gun on vince mcmahon some 20 years back. Yet he, along with many others who have a seeded past, have been inducted. Its a shame Benoit's life ended the way it did as he was definately deserving of a spot. He was an amazing performer and obviously was inspired a lot by the dynamite kid. Half of the hall of fame inductees have a bad past and have been involved in some sort of scandal over the years and yet are still in. The situation with Hogan is most probably payback for when Hogan testified against mcmahon during the steriod court battle and left the company, almost putting vince out of business. vince is clearly still bitter about that as erasing someone's legacy for mentioning something funny many years back, as being racist is petty. Besides vince once used the same word to jon cena during a live ppv in 2005/6 i think.
+kieron20069 - I kind of agree and disagree. As much as talent and in ring success is important, sometimes, I feel a wrestlers personal life should have some degree of influence, especially now that WWE is back in full, 1980s, sell-to-the-whole-family mode.
If you ever look up Dynamite Kid and where he's at nowadays, from what I've seen of documentaries and videos, (I remember him being on a Chris Benoit documentary for 60 Minutes or something like that, about steroid use in wrestling, back when everyone thought Benoit snapped because of Roid Rage) and the guy's in a really bad place where he's stuck in a wheelchair, has all but destroyed his body, his kids want nothing to do with him and his colleagues from back in the day avoid him like the plague.
I can understand forgiving guys for drugs and prostitutes and putting them in the Hall, but if DK really was that much of a cunt in real life, I also fully understand WWE permanently distancing themselves from him.
+Omar Harris you make a valid point there omar. Another superstar who is more deserving yet won't be inducted due to a seeded past...is chyna. Any wrestling fan will know the impact she had on the business and other superstars/divas. We also know that despite the excuse triple h used on Austin's podcast for not inducting her, the real reason is stephanie mcmahon. she obviously hates chyna and of course is responsible for the break up. Triple h is protecting his investment so to speak within the company.
Rip dynamite kid
john foley started it on stampede when he told all the English wrestlers not to trust the French wrestlers.
He was mean as fuck, but he was amazing. so sad that he died young. not surprising but sad.
It's great to see Jake look good
You guys remember the lightning quick suplex D.k. i remember a buddy and i would be the English bull dogs in school make fake tag team championship belts out of card board paint belt black,aluminum foil in the center...best part of my life growing up.where time has gone.kids now only wanna play PlayStation or Xbox.best times ever
Does he know Davey Boy is dead?
He just gave us the reason why Bret became known for never hurting anyone he's worked with😅
Bret mentioned that story in his book back in 2007. He wasnt trying to keep it a secret
His British accent is to the point.
They said Raymond was tough too but his leg was injured when Jacque handled that
Now i get it why Davey Boy Jr threw coffee in jake's face, Or rather i understand Davey is way to proud to let these things to be said about his dad
Let’s face it his dad was a cunning manipulative LS who caused all of it
Not surprised with Davey Boy.
he wasn't a 'uman
does mcmahon ever talk about that dynamite kid incident with rogeau?
Man.. Hannibal should be on the WWE card :/
He was
I cant understand- how the Rougeau's Bro's- take pride- in the "Comeback of 88" while they freely admit- to ambushing the D.K. with a fist full of quarters-- a fistful of quarters- would give a weak person a decent punch-- I guess they got some revenge-- but if Jock Rougeau would have said- listen-- you disrespected me, and now we are gonna have it out.. Man to Man--- & then proceeded to stomp-- D.K. ...... then-- I would have to say-- way to go-- Great Comeback-- Sucker Punching a man with a weapon-- ehhhh... I give them an A+ for the plan they hatched-- -- but to brag about- it as if it was honorable way to avenge yourself-- I think not---
+Darkk Lord Well, you listen to how Dynamite was back then, he always had an entourage of big guys around him. He used to always travel around the locker room with his kliq of Him, Davey Boy, Don Muraco, Bad News Brown, Ultimate Warrior, ect. The only way the Rougeaus were going to get back fairly on Dynamite without all those other guys jumping in, was a blitz attack. Not to mention, when Dynamite first attacked Jacques, Jacques was playing cards with Dino Bravo, and Dynamite just comes up from behind and nails Jacques in the back of the head. Raymond, who was had an injured knee and could hardly walk, tries to calm the situation down and as soon as he turns his back, Dynamite coldcocks him too. So I guess this could be considered eye for an eye, repaying a sucker punch with a sucker punch.
+Donny Icarus What they never talk about is that it wasn't one punch the two of them took shots at Dynamite after the punch but couldn't knock him off his feet before they were separated. Bad News appeared and they both ran for it. Raymond claims to have done nothing but many witnesses claim he laid a few jabs in. Many also believe Pat Patterson was in on it probably under pressure by them and Dino Bravo and he kept Dynamite behind alone in a meeting so he wouldn't have back up. They were prepared to call up people and even gave addresses to Dno Bravo to pass on to dodgy friends and have Dynamite killed if it carried on. they are scumbags.
The situation got out of control and there were people on the outside stirring it up for their own amusement but the Rougeaus were not innocent by any means and probably worse. They were not particularly liked in the locker room probably because like Dino Bravo they had links to dodgy gangsters.
Dynamite also offered them the chance to fight it out plenty of times but they chose to handle things by setting him up and jumping him then running like cowards. It was unnecessary in many ways too they knew that the whole thing with Dynamite getting pissed was due to others stirring the pot but neither of them went to Dynamite and sat down like "Hey people said stuff about you messing with us that wasn't true and we didn't actually go to Vince about it we just want to put all this behind us"
No Dynamite hurt their pride by showing them up in the locker room so they want to make a point that they and none of the French Canadians are to be messed with.
MxMoondoggie thats the story i have heared as well. the brothers were little bitches. always ratting on people to vince or pat.
Do you know dk attack the man from behind? No offer of a fair fight, "man to man" as you say. He cheap shoted him. I'm a northern English man living 10 miles from where the dynamite kid was from. He's a legend. He also got what he deserved that day.
Those were the wild days of wrestling!
Thanks to god jake is still here and sober.
Wonder what would happen if Dynamite tried messing with Steve Blackman.
Shoot wrestler vs martial asrtist
One thing that bodes for Dynamite is that he was known as a tough guy in an era full of tough guys.
Bret has said in interviews that Dynamite feared no one and would fight anyone. Story in his book about Dynamite almost fighting Harley Race
@@StuUngar He'd kill him with a fork.
I heard watching legends of wrestling, that it started with a rib with Mr perfect, putting locks on his bags, and he thought it was dynamite kid, it wasn't, so he sucker punched him lol
It was davey who did it
My favourite smart wrestler Jake the Snake Roberts!
Another great video from a old schooler.
Does Hanibal himself upload these?
That's what you call a true Wiganer
First time ive heard anyone mention Davey Boy as the real culprit.
Possibly true.
It’s all true something that Bret hart admitted to dynamite
@2:25 I thought he said David Bowie lol
greatest legend of all time
Jake sounds like Austin when he talks!!!
It was actually Curt Henning the one who stirred the pot between Tommy and the Rougeau bros
@02:30
Why is Jake faulting Davey-Boy??
I thought it was
Mr. "not-so-perfect" Kurt Henning
that starting that whole mess.
It was davey who started it all!!
Was Davey Boy really involved? I thought it was Curt Hennig who cut Jacques stuff up and made it look like Dynamite did it.
No. Jake is full of shit. Dynamite did not train Bret either.
So it was Davey Boy Smith and not Curt Hennig that started the shit?🤔
probably a bit of both.
It was all davey Bret hart admitted that himself
It was Kurt Hennig who stirred all the Dynamite-Rougeau trouble.....
Were you there to witness it?
@@nilsmarkstrom1546 More than one wrestler stated that.....
Great story
I notice Jake seems to be the only wrestler that speaks ill of Davy Boy. Something bad must of gone down between those two because Jake seems to really hate him. Wonder what happened.
Davey was a really nice guy.
great northern accent by Jake
and by great I presume you mean terrible? haha - sounds like Forrest Gump rather than a Northern Englishman... I should know i'm one of them
Is this the reason why British bulldogs son threw a hot drink at him ?
I wonder why everybody had a problem with Jake Roberts tapping Them on their shoulder and saying is this your wallet 🐍
I'll do all three
I would have paid cash money to see Dynamite try to bully Ron Simmons.
And yet another story about the Dynamite Kid being a patently rotten human being.
Can't say the stuff where he had Jake in an armbar and went to beat the crap out of some guy in the third row isn't funny, though...
@Luca Brasi oh...you're so tough
@cohenhaywood10 hahahahahahahahahahahajahahahahahahahahaha
I heard Mr Perfect told Dynamite that the Rougeau's were talking about them that made Dynamite wanna smack him , found it wasnt true but it was too late , now dynamite has no front teeth :/
A lot of people around them stirred the pot really but the fight was too far gone by the time anybody knew the truth and after backing down from Dynamite and Jacques being put down by Dynamite the Rougeaus felt they had lost face so wanted to get him back. They had connections in Quebec and were known to be pretty dodgy which they liked they didn't want anybody to mess with them. They knew guys like Dino Bravo who were part of that crowd too so they conspired to sucker punch Dynamite. Pat Patterson another French Canadian held Dynamite back for a meeting in the cafeteria and then started making small talk with them before Dynamite came out some speculate he was in on it for whatever reason maybe he was scared of them too.
After the fact Vince stepped in and if he didn't they had Dynamite's home address in Canada with his wife and kids names and they were going to pass that on to connections to sort things out but Vince managed to convince them all to shake hands by threatening to withhold money they were owed. Whole situation could have got a lot worse than it did. Dynamite for his part was being a bully and ignored warnings not to take things further and keep pushing them including from Dino Bravo who tried to warn him that it would be dangerous since he was friends with all of them but Dynamite didn't listen and kept messing with them.
There could be consequences Jake. Harry could find out about these comments you made about his Dad here. Watch what you say.
Dynamite had it coming, he smacked Raymond back of the head in the locker room just prior to this without reason, and by all (including Jake's) testimony it was Dynamite that was started it.
Dymanite is oh dang, this is the best comparison I have he was like the kid on the football team in school. around the coach that he thought of as like a father figure, in his case it was Harley Race, he was very respectful, very nice, showed all the class in the world but around the guys on the team he could get in trouble, he was quick tempered and the other wrestlers knew that and as Jake said they would get him hot and ready to fight then sit back and watch.
Dynamite was a real psycho. Glad Jacques punched his lights out!
What makes this story complete baloney is why would Jake care if he gave Bret, a guy Jake never respected, 3 receipts. Makes zero sense
According to the story Bret was still fairly new, so Jake didn't really know him yet...
Bret however did know who started it all
Yea ok .they were drinking and coked up together prolly Jake was telling him to kill him for another line
It was perfect who stirred the pot
you get people on the juice and no tellin what will happen
Take these stories with a grain of salt, they never match up.
You take 10 stories and maybe you get some of the truth. Everyone has their own angle they want to play though. Most fans seem to prefer the angle that the Rougeaus were innocent victims in it all that were scared of a bully. They fail to mention in their side of the story that their family has mafia links and that they were planning to put a hit out on Kid and his family since he was going to get them back for jumping him. Vince himself had to step in and threaten them with losing pay offs for them to stop and had them all shake hands. He had to pay for Dynamite's dental bills and withhold pay offs so he'd agree on his part since he was pissed about them giving his details to the mafia.
Rougeaus are assholes and crooks, all those French Canadians were really, Dino Bravo died cos he crossed those same people the Rougeaus had links to. Pat Patterson was paid off to help them get Dynamite, that day he called Dynamite into a fake meeting to discuss an angle so he'd be alone without his friends and he led Dynamite into a trap. They talk like it was all by chance but that was total bullshit lol. They slipped Pat some money and probably got him a male prostitute or two lol.
Who da fook cut your hair....
Glad Jake got back into the drugs it suits him
Dynamite, and Davey Boy for that matter, were such pieces of garbage.
dynamite is a legend son
No, he is not. A legend is someone that transcends the sport or activity they're known for. A legend in wrestling is a household name, someone that transcends the industry. Hulk Hogan, Andre the Giant, Randy Savage, Bret, HBK, Flair, Austin, Rock - these are legends. Dynamite was a good in-ring wrestler in his day, but he wasn't even a headliner, let alone a legend.
Dr.Beef he wasn't a headliner in america, his japanese matches speak for themselves. he was ahead of his time, even bret and shawn were stuck in tag teams at the time because wwf cared more about size than talent.
which is ironic because judging by the latest wrestlemania, most of the wrestlers don't even lift weights now
Rubbish, Jake spouting nonsense
Don't remember anyone asking you a goddamn thing.
