10 WWE Superstars Who Tarnished Their Legacy

4. Jake Roberts

 Another legend of the Nineteen Eighties, Jake ‘The Snake’ is one in every of the most effective heels wrestling has ever seen. A master of ring science and a person with a curiously calm, soft promo Jake was a giant star within the Nineteen Eighties and into the 90s. sadly, with fame and cash came temptation, temptation that Roberts couldn't ignore. He became smitten by medication and alcohol and battled with the addiction for several years. This was 1st notable once Roberts came back to the WWF in 1996 once a spell in WCW and on the freelance circuit out of form and sporting an outsized gut. though he was apparently clean throughout this run he relapsed and was discharged from his contract. From there, things began to get terribly dark for Jake.

The release of on the far side the Mat in 1999 painted a really unhappy image of Jake wrestling for little cash on West Indies and smoking crack hard drug whereas attempting to reconcile along with his unloved family. a coffee purpose came at the Heroes of Wrestling pay-per-view that year once a clearly drunk Roberts cut AN incomprehensible promo on opponent Jim Neidhart. Roberts then rubbed a feminine fans breasts, compete along with his Snake in an exceedingly suggestive manner, stumbled round the ring, passed out and eventually tried to require his garments off once the published cut out. Roberts toured the united kingdom for All Star wrestling in 2001 and had more problems with medication and alcohol that accomplished his performance.

Roberts went into detail regarding his demons at this year’s Hall of Fame ceremony wherever he was inducted. Roberts is on the top with facilitate from friend and life coach Diamond Dallas Page. If Roberts will abstain from medication and alcohol he might be a valuable addition to WWE in an exceedingly backstage role.
