BTW, Jake and I have exchanged emails and he told me that this is his last summer of wrestling so God only knows what he will do for money.

He has done car commercials & autograph sales but I guess his series of of shoot interviews he sells on his sites will help a little.

He has a good crew of supporters including family members and friends (specifically his PA Shannon) so hopefully he stays clean in retirement so WWE may give him some cred some day.


BTW II he is my all time favorite wrestler.
I firmly believe WWE will induct Jake Roberts into the Hall of Fame. He was ahead of his time in terms of being a heel. He was psychotic in 1992 and his feud with Savage is phenomenal. I wasn't that big of a fan of his, but he was capable of having great matches with Randy Savage, Ted Dibiase etc. I have come to appreciate how big of an impact he made and it bothers me that he was never an Intercontinental Champion. However, that was when Bret Hart and Mr. Perfect were dominating the Intercontinental title scene and then British Bulldog and Shawn Michaels and before them Ultimate Warrior. He could have had a reign though. He had all the tools.

also shane douglas... he was the fuckin shit in ecw... and i doubt like hell any of the guys in ecw were gettin filthy rich... def. not wwe rich anyway... then he went to wcw and slowly went to shit.... he could've been fuckin awesome on the mic for ecw during the invasion.... but he hated mcmahon and hbk and they hated him... so if not for politics in wwe he would have been fuckin awesome during the attitude era... especially with fine ass francine........ anyway true fuckin story..... i was with my dad in pittsburgh back in 93' my dad was buying a piece of shit work car off his boss and my dads boss says "do you know the wrestler shane douglas?" and i said yeah.. and he said "thats his house and there he is right there" the franchise was outside in his yard spraying his grass with a hose" true story... like i said this was in 93' i was 9 nine years old and shane douglas wasn't a huge superstar yet... but his house was nice as hell... but i read on wikipedia that he was trying to get a fuckin job at target... i guess you could call that a fall from grace..........

Warrior hasn't fell anywhere, pretty sure he kept/watched his money and always looked out for himself.

I have to say that even though he may be a dick in real life, I still am a big fan of the Ultimate Warrior, I always liked him. Shawn Michaels changed but he was the biggest asshole in the business at one time and that didn't stop me from liking him in the ring. I agree it sucks when you hear a favorite of yours is an ass but as fans we really only should be dealing with what happens in the ring. Sorry for the long winded response.

Does Justin Credible count since he barely had a cup of coffee in the big leagues?


Also, Tony Atlas def should be in there. Although Vince has bailed him out of his situation a couple different times.

..."fall from grace"...

...huh...

...Scott Hall comes to mind, man...

...if not for his demons, he would've been WWF Champion, he would've been WCW Heavyweight Champion...too bad the 2 companies didn't trust him enough to peg him as their top star, because they couldn't rely on him...

...AND, he would most likely still be active today, and when I say active, I mean ACTIVE...not the way he is today.
