I've seen his bio on A&E.....his dad's dark side of the ring.....the shit Jake's been through is immense and im glad he's still here to tell his story.
It’s crazy to think Jake Roberts is still alive especially since wrestlers die at a extremely high rate! So many wrestlers have passed away like the numbers are staggering
If wrestling organizations like the WWE gave a damn about their new wrestlers, they’d bring in guys like Jake to really sit down and talk to them. That’s the true “time honored tradition” of “passing the torch”
These schoolboys nowadays are a different breed, back in the day these guys were psychos and were 90 percent of what they pretended to be. Nowadays they are just actors and acrobats, i can't watch that shit
I love the old wrestlers in the 80's and 90's interviews because that was the year when I followed wrestling. It's kind of need to know what they went through during that time. And as fans never knew what was going on.
It's crazy because a lot of people complain about some of the other interviewers like Shawn however I prefer Shawn to Vlad. I think Vlad is ok but not a top tier interviewer.
@@nathanking596 he's better than hannibal "...uhhhhhhh...... so i guess you uhhhhhhh...." , he's better than fienstein "...memories of insert topic here...", and at least he's not trying to play games or clown him like rogan.
@@nathanking596 Shawn is incredibly bias and has as much research as Vlad. Shawn tried to argue with the Ying Yang Twins on what their biggest hit is. The artist would know what their biggest hit is.
I'm from the Mid-South territory where Jake was and still is a hero. This man has done so much for the business and continues to give back to the business. I just wish more of the young talent would take heed to the words of a man that's seen everything except Christ
@@markl5998 I agree, but preferably ones with charisma. Don’t get me wrong, Jake was my favourite back in the day (he had a snake in his bag). But this was tough to watch
When Jake said Mexico was passionate about it.... how does Vlad not ask for am example? A story? Clearly Jake saw some shit down there that we'd wanna hear
I feel like Jake doesn’t enjoy an interview unless it’s deep, dark and awkward.. that’s what ALL his interviews turn into- THATS why Jake is mint feeling this one
Vlad since we in the realm of Pro Wrestling interviews then you need to interview The Godfather, Jim Cornette, Vince Russo, Kevin Nash, Bret Hart.. Also for the Rap interviews get Wack 100..
Stone Cold and Lawlor were juicy topics. Vlad just glossed over both. How did Jake feel when the Austin 3:16 catchphrase took off? What exactly was said between Jake and Lawlor? What was Vince McMahon's reaction to the beef between Jake and Lawlor?
I remember wrestling with my brother on the living room couch when his heel hit the edge of the glass coffee table and the whole thing shattered like in the movies. My bro, to this day, has a pet snake named Jake.
The Attitude Era Is The Only Thing Great To pro Wrestling. When WCW Collab With WWF, When They Changed The Name To WWE And When Kane Took His Mask Off, Wrestling Became Extremely Boring, It Started To Seem Fake And Over Whack. Like Super Trash. 96-99 was The Best Time To Be A Wrestling Fan 💯
The New Jack/Vic Grimes was a work. The taser was a work. Vic Grimes knew that NJ would throw him off the scaffold. No one got injured, at least not that bad.
If Jake met 2Pac, Vlad would've been a lot more engaged in this convo. This is why Vlad sucks at interviewing people outside of Hip-Hop. All he'll do is wikipedia their stories back to them. Never tries to go deeper. All so he can later say in a different interview that "Yeah, I interviewed X person". He did the exact same thing in the New Jack interview. All he did was read back Dark Side of the Ring to him.
Being from Memphis, I grew up watching Jerry Lawler. That dude is a hoot and would do anything for a joke. The Andy Kaufman stuff was hilarious. People thought he was funny from his Attitude commentator days and talking bout "the puppies". I suggest y'all go back and look at old CWA/USWA footage from the '80s and early '90s. He was hilarious on the mic and totally politically incorrect. Lawler also coined the term "jabroni" that The Rock uses (I think The Rock has acknowledged this) but The Rock got his big break in Memphis as Flex Kavana which helped him get into the WWE cause Lawler was already working with the WWE at the time and Memphis USWA was like a feeder/training area for the WWE.
lawler may have been the one who said it in front of Dwayne, but he did not in fact coin or invent the term. that is, unless he's well over 100yrs old and italian.
Jake the 🐍 snake is a legend in the rasslin buisness. Hes a top 5 promo guy. On the stick 🎤. Up there with flair. Dusty. Piper. Macho man Jim cornette. 💯 👋✅
I dont hink it was that there is more passion in Mexican wrestling but there is a lot of wild stuff that happens as well. Vlad wanted Jake to tell some stories but Jake clearly was not interested
I've heard many great Jake interviews... all the parts that have posted so far are just awkward.. like he doesn't want to be there or didn't get a big enough envelope
It is cause those other interviews were done by wrestling fans who can probe. Vlad just has a list of random life events and hoping he'll expound when questioned smh

That 3:16 segment is arguably the greatest promo of all time.
Facts
On time
Ric Flair tear in my eye no 1hands down
When Stone Cold said, Maybe he can get back some of that courage he had in his prime with a cheap bottle of Thunderbird😂😂
🤣🤣 Don't just get him out the ring get him outta the WWF, Cause I just proved without a doubt he doesn't have what it takes anymore
This is so valuable hearing this man tell the truth so straight-forwardly about his addiction
Bro is not even doing a interview just getting Jake to confirm some key moments from his past. Like bro ask questions you have a legend sitting there
Right?!
Vlad is very well known for being a *undercover snitch* this shouldn’t surprise you one bit at all. 🤨
Stone Cold vs Jake The Snake was the storyline that got me into wrestling y’all just don’t know how GOATed this mane is!
Yea, cuz you're the one that discovered him 😂😂. Where would he b without u.
Wouldn’t really call it a storyline it was just one match lol.
My 1st Jake memory is him losing to the undertaker at mania 7. He ddt'd him on concrete and taker STILL kicked out of the pin 😂. I was shocked 😂
@@MrJ1S DDT was in the ring. Tombstone was outside the ring
@@cibida1 oh yeah then he rolled him bsck in
Time isn't standing still at all this seems like yesterday. Do whatever you desire today for tomorrow isn't promised.
Thanks for being a part of the rise and birth of the Stone Cold that Everyone Remembers
I've seen his bio on A&E.....his dad's dark side of the ring.....the shit Jake's been through is immense and im glad he's still here to tell his story.

@@steadydropnem same with ric flair lol
@@gerardovega4641 And Vince himself
Grizzly Smith's episode was super creepy!
@@Shin-Blade yes it was!
Psychology wise in the ring, Jake was one of the best hands down . It's not how you do a move sometimes, but when you do it.
All the trauma he’s went through and he still lived a life and seen things most of us would never. Glad he’s overcome and still here to tell his story
My all time favorite wrestler. Jake had the demeanor, voice, delivery, and in ring talent.
His promos were always on point never had a bad promo
Speaking of Smokey Mountain, I think Vlad needs to interview Jim Cornette
💯
Jim needs to leave his house first.
I doubt Corny even knows who Vlad is. 😂
Jim's been spewing the same shit for 30 years, that basement dwellers manager run was garbage.

@@space_dogg it’s nothing but high spots. Tacky gymnastics style high spots. It’s freaking lame
Jake seems so relaxed and easy going.
Jake’s work with AAA and his fued with Cien Caras and Konnan is legendary. I wish someone put his debut for AAA online. it’s still missing
AAA roadside assistance?

There's a couple of videos here on UA-cam.
Finally, a REAL wrestling fan!
@@yarisygatos none of them are his debut
He is so raw and genuine, with much respect for his courage and transparency. Much love Dude!
Vlad you need to get Booker t on here!
You say Booker T, I raise you a Jim Cornette on Vlad TV.

Literally the best off the cuff promo ever, Jake the snake is a living legend but Stone cold is the greatest of all time for me 🐍 💀
jake is handling this guy just "confirming his wiki page" instead of interviewing him VERY WELL.

Loving this interview!
"You're a sick man Jake Roberts"
"That's right I am at least you know that"
The birth of Austin 3:16. The GOAT!!!
Hogan is the GOAT!
Love his short answers 😂
Man one of the only times I cried as a child was when Jake king cobra 🐍 bit Macho Man Randy Savage arm I thought Randy was going to die
Stone "Cald" Steve Austin 🤣
Lmao
😂😂😂😂😂😂
"Cold Stone!"

Austin 3:16 is LEGENDARY
Jake the 🐍 was my fave wrestler as a kid then Stone Cold in my teens, glad Jake is doing well
Good interview
Vlad struggling through this one
Doesn't matter bring us more wrestlers!!
@@markl5998 I agree, but preferably ones with charisma.
Don’t get me wrong, Jake was my favourite back in the day (he had a snake in his bag). But this was tough to watch
Thru the whole interview
He got his "Okays in
When Jake said Mexico was passionate about it.... how does Vlad not ask for am example? A story? Clearly Jake saw some shit down there that we'd wanna hear
Jake the snake Robert is a wrestling legend forever
Can't wait for part 8
Vlad : “stone call Steve Austin
mize well b phone call Steve
Born again Christian. Good for you Jake! Christ and the Gospel is the answer. 👍🙏🏻
Jake is so authentic and honest
Fun conversation 🙌🏽
Did Vlad just say “The Mexican Wrestling Association” 😭😭😭???
I watch those clips still to this day 😅 Steve Austin is the mf goat
I feel like Jake doesn’t enjoy an interview unless it’s deep, dark and awkward.. that’s what ALL his interviews turn into- THATS why Jake is mint feeling this one
Vlad since we in the realm of Pro Wrestling interviews then you need to interview The Godfather, Jim Cornette, Vince Russo, Kevin Nash, Bret Hart..
Also for the Rap interviews get Wack 100..
RIP NEW JACK
Vlad: Were you upset about that?
The Snake: You fucking right I was!
In Memphis “PERSONAL ISSUES DRAW MONEY” roberts knew the deal.
Please interview jim cornette
At one point Jake was in ecw new jack use to party with Jake a couple of times
@3:58...It was Jake who poured whiskey on Lawlers face, after winning the match.
The way vlad says stone cold's name the first time🤣😂 he says "stone cole"
Stone Cold and Lawlor were juicy topics. Vlad just glossed over both. How did Jake feel when the Austin 3:16 catchphrase took off? What exactly was said between Jake and Lawlor? What was Vince McMahon's reaction to the beef between Jake and Lawlor?
I remember wrestling with my brother on the living room couch when his heel hit the edge of the glass coffee table and the whole thing shattered like in the movies. My bro, to this day, has a pet snake named Jake.
Vlad seems like he doesn’t know what the hell he’s talking about
I’m kinda gutted that he said, “I had a few words with him” just say “We had a fight and a bad one at that. 4:11 😅😂😂😂
Vlad "I interviewed him before he passed" TV
Maybe Jake wasnt feeling it that day, watched an interview he did last week that was more responsive, Legend either way.
I heard his story on Rogan a few years back, some guy pretty much saved his life.. took him in and helped him get cleaned up...
Diamond Dalla Page he was also a wrestler he was helping him and Scott Hall(Razor Ramon) at the same time
Jake The Snake Roberts becoming a born again Christian led to Austin 3:16 being said which opened the door for the Attitude Era.
“Austin 3:16 says I just whooped your ass”
The Attitude Era Is The Only Thing Great To pro Wrestling. When WCW Collab With WWF, When They Changed The Name To WWE And When Kane Took His Mask Off, Wrestling Became Extremely Boring, It Started To Seem Fake And Over Whack. Like Super Trash. 96-99 was The Best Time To Be A Wrestling Fan 💯
Stone Cold is the GOAT.
Jake the Snake should put do master class how to not snitch on yourself on Vlad interviews
TK Kirkland booked that Austin/Roberts KOR match
The host talks more that the guest.
Jake is only say yep yep.
I remember Ravishing Rick Rude disrespected his wife in the crowd and they got it crackin from then on
God Bless Jake!!!!

You would of just heard the warrior confirming everything vlad read of Wikipedia
Loved Jake
Heel or.face
Short arm close-line
Ddt
Stone cald Steve Austin 😂😂😂😂
Yooo if it wasn't for him it wouldn't be an Austin 3:16 quote
Ironic Austin many times was referred to as "The Rattlesnake" on live TV shows and in interviews
If Jake ddts you your out cold. Best move ever
The New Jack/Vic Grimes was a work. The taser was a work. Vic Grimes knew that NJ would throw him off the scaffold. No one got injured, at least not that bad.
Jake looks so happy and healthy. I’m so happy for him.
STONE COLD TOP 5 wrestler easy!!! He went against his boss
Vlad TV is my Hero 🦸♀️
I remember a cage match in Mexico and Jake got pelted in the head with nachos outside of the ring. DDP was there too. Classic
I had to heat this Austin 3:16
Jake spent all his lose your hair match 💵 at a strip club lol 😂
