PostSat Mar 06, 2004 6:20 pm    Jake "The Snake" Roberts & Sting

Okay, it seems there are a few wrestling fans here...

Anyone remember Jake "The Snake" Roberts, mainly for his WWF tenure?

I watched him. He wrestled for the WWF from 1986-1992 and again from 1996-1997. I enjoyed his first tenure though. I loved the way he would beat a wrestler and then unleash his pet python onto the wrestler.

I enjoyed some of his feuds and matches. Such as the time he teamed with Demolition and Hulk Hogan to face Ted DiBiase, Zeus and The Powers of Pain. I loved the way he started the match by throwing his python in the ring, causing the bad team to make a quick exit.

And what of his great feuds against wrestlers such as Rick Rude, Ted DiBiase, The Model Rick Martel & The Undertaker? He was a great wrestler with a good grasp of ring psychology. If only personal problems had not gotten him down.

And what of ex-WCW wrestler, Sting. I preferred the WWF over WCW but Sting was a great performer against wrestlers such as Ric Flair, Rick Rude, Big Van Vader and The NWO. I liked the changes he undertook from charismatic babyface to dark brooding Crow-like figure in the late 90's. I wish he were still involved in the sport, particularly for the WWE.

Any other fans of these two great wrestlers?

I don't anyone who is a fan , has not heard of Jake "The Snake" Roberts and Sting, who is one of my favourite performers - the enterance, face paint - blaring music. Ah it was awesome his matches against Ric Flair will always be remembered, just like the final match in WcW history in which Sting finally won the feud after like 10 years, Sting is still involved in recently made several appearances for NWA TNA, against Jeff Jarrett, he also teamed with AJ styles
