Join us at the Fifth Annual 80s Wrestling Con on Saturday, May 4th, at the Mennen Sports Arena in Morristown, NJ, featuring The Four Horsemen, Jake Roberts, and More! 80sWrestlingCon.com.
On the latest episode of "The Snake Pit" podcast, Jake Roberts talked about being re-signed by AEW (this story first broke via Dominic DeAngelo at SEScoops.com):
"Well, folks, just let you know, you're gonna be looking at me on AEW for another year. That's right. They re-signed me so that's great news. Looking forward to doing it and hoping and crossing my fingers that, wouldn't it be something if we started The Snake Pit back up? I would love to talk to Tony about that.”
The Snake Pit, similar to Piper's Pit and The Flower Shop, was a popular talk segment that aired on WWF Superstars and Wrestling Challenge in the 1980s.
Jake also said he may do something similar to the Jericho Cruise:
“Everybody’s been on a Jericho Cruise, but have you been on Jake “The Snake” Roberts cruise? That’s on the way, so folks, get ready. We’re gonna take it out there in the middle of the ocean and do what I do.”
Jake Roberts lists all-time top minds in wrestling:
“Myself, Eddie Graham, and Bill Watts.”
Jake’s list of top four all-time talkers in wrestling
“Dusty, myself, Piper, and Flair”
