Now I see a lot of people online and in wrestling communities trying to tear down the old Snake with what they consider the "Worst promo of all time" but in reality we the masses have been too dumb to understand the level of kino that Jake was throwing down
>Everyone over the years have attributed the "You wanna play 21? I've got 22" line as being a sign that Jake doesn't know the rules of Blackjack
>In actuality what Mr. Roberts means is that he has a .22 Caliber gun, and that even if his opponent truly has the perfect hand he will not walk away the victor because Jake is vicious and will do anything to win.
>The line "Do you wanna play blackjack? I got two of those too" is then him saying that he has two actual blackjacks, a type of crude club used to bash people
>Finally the line "You wanna play Aces and Eights? I got too many of those" is probably the most kino of them all
>Aces and Eights goes by another name. They are called "Dead Man's Hand" because it is said to be the cards that Wild Bill Hickok, a famous outlaw, was holding when he was shot dead
>Jake is then implying that he has led a trail of men who thought they could best the snake only to wind up dead at his hand over the years.
It's time to face the facts, that even while ballooned off his ass on enough drugs to kill a bull, Jake Roberts could still cut a more cerebral promo than anyone else in the history of the business

People really dog on Jake?
He was one of the greats.
I actually thought he died a long time ago. Then I find out he's on DDP Yoga and showing up on TNA or whatever.
Why they made him sell a super kick is ridiculous. That shit is hard to do even for people that are in shape.

DDP got him clean, had Jake drop 75 lbs and got him below 15% bodyfat for the first time since the 80s. Then Jake got a job with AEW, started drinking and doing drugs again, balloned up to 285lbs, and refuses to respond to Paige's emails or tweets.

That may have been poor by those standards but it's not bad considering how shit modern day promos are. Jake still has that sly way of talking which can make anything sound cerebral.

They dogged on him because he became a drunk overweight has-been and fucked over a bunch of people.

I refuse to believe this but if I worked at AEW then I'd probably resort to that. Especially Jake who has been critical about in ring psychology and the art of selling. No one does that at AEW so I'm sure it pisses him off to the extent that he'd want to hit the bottle again.

He must have wrote it out with some thought but then got ballooned off his tights.

It's the same thing that happened with Scott Hall. DDP got him clean, got him in shape, helped fund surgery to fix a lot of his pain, got his finances squared away, and got Hall back into the appearance circuit after he had basically been blackballed due to his behavior. Then Scott started drinking again and everything fell apart.

These guys are fundamentally broken. You can hold their hand and support them and make some progress, but they will always fall back down because something inside of them is just wrong. It really sucks because you can see DDP talking about this shit and getting more and more frustrated and cynical as the years go on. When he started out he honestly believed that deep down everyone wants to be a better person, but they just don't know how to escape from their circumstances. So he gave up his time, money, and home to try and rehab these people believing that they would respond in good faith to his efforts and pick up their own slack once he had set them straight. Almost every single one of them has let him down with the exception of guys like Stevie Richards who was already a pretty decent human being by all backstage accounts, but was just busted up and injured.

You can't fix someone who doesn't want to be fixed, and most people don't really want to be fixed. If they did want to be fixed they would have tried to fix themselves years ago. Part of the reason I stopped trying to encourage people on ogrechan to better themselves. Most of you are human garbage, and are more than content to wallow in your own filth. Occasionally one of you will have a moment of self-awareness and spend a few days crying on here about how unhappy you actually are, but you will always go back to being pieces of shit. You are failures and losers because you choose to be, and no amount of advice or encouragement will change that.

It was all a work brother. DDP is a jew and "helped" the drug addicts only long enough to shill his yoga DVDs brother.

That's because Vince was the guy that held them together with authority rather than hand holding.
