On the latest episode of The Snake Pit with Jake Roberts, the WWE Hall of Famer talked about celebrity involvement in wrestling and more. You can check out some highlights below:
On whether he got to work with Abdullah the Butcher: “No, I’m very fortunate. He is a strange one, my friend.”
On the Hulk Hogan vs. The Giant monster truck battle: “I would have truly been ashamed of doing this stuff. I don’t know how Hogan took more than one [finisher from the Yeti].”
On celebrity involvement in wrestling: “It’s entertainment, but I just have mixed emotions about it. I really do, you know, and I think that you can sell their s**t, but you can’t sell it all the way. You’ve got to come out on top somehow. At least straighten your f**king hair up. Don’t lay completely flat. You know, I don’t — I wouldn’t mind taking a shot from a celebrity and going down, but for the celebrity to cover me one, two, three, I’d probably have a problem with it.”
