WWE Hall of Famer Jake “The Snake” Roberts took to an episode of his The Snake Pit podcast, where he discussed several topics, including the challenges of being a young pro wrestler.
Roberts said, “Yeah it was rough, man. I mean — I don’t know, man. Either you love it or you don’t. And for me, there was such a passion inside of me, I didn’t have a choice. I had to wrestle. Just to feel like I was breathing. Without wrestling, I was nothing. Absolutely nothing. Because my mind and my heart were just so into wrestling thing. I wanted to be very successful. I wanted to be twenty times better than my father. I wanted to achieve things he never did, and I was able to do those things.”
On wrestling being a crazy business to get into:
“It was a crazy business to get into. It was a foolish business to get into. You had to be a goddamn fool to get into it. But for some, it worked out beautifully. And it still does for a handful of guys. All I can tell you is, look at The Rock. There’s something you can go for. I mean, tell me he’s not successful.”
