Loss Posted May 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 Not quite as awesome as everything involving him so far. Great in moments, and I have no idea what he's rambling about in others. Him not carrying the belt, and his reasoning for not having it, is weird. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Ridge Posted May 29, 2012 Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 So was the real story Jake forgetting the belt somewhere? Jake alludes to being out of shape but that's due to all those victory meals. Roberts also seem to be holding a very small flashlight in his hand which he uses to shine a light on things.

Exposer Posted June 4, 2012 Report Share Posted June 4, 2012 I thought this was a very good promo by Jake. It made sense to me at least. Good stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soup23 Posted June 14, 2012 Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 Good promo by Jake but really rambling at times. Jake works better either in pre tapes or with a babyface actually out there to play off of as here he was getting some cheers by the fans and lost his focus.

El-P Posted December 1, 2012 Report Share Posted December 1, 2012 Yet another excellent evil promo by Jake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteF3 Posted April 19, 2014 Report Share Posted April 19, 2014 Apparently the Volunteer Slam results aren't quite out yet as there's no discussion of DDT'ing the Dirty White Girl. Jake makes excuses for not having the title, blinding DWB, and his weight gain in increasingly unconvincing fashion. His sarcastic "oops" when making reference to light was amusing. Some of these analogies are a little forced but this is another standout promo--yet again, creepy and menacing but still not a rehash of his '91-'92 stuff.

GSR Posted April 8, 2016 Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 Les Thatcher wonders where the SMW Heavyweight belt is? Jake Roberts has never had to wrap a belt around his waist as the people know he’s the best, so why should he carry a piece of metal with him? There’s no need to bring it out here as there’s no-one that can beat him for it anyway. He wants to clear the air of a few things though. He was accused of trying to blind Tony Anthony with a camera, he just wanted to get the last picture of the champion, that’s all. It’s come to light that he’s gained a bit of weight, well when you have victory meals every night you do gain a bit of weight. He then says as the new champion of Smoky Mountain Wrestling, it’s his privilege to do something for these…to do something. If Donnie Ellison had a race car that went around the track at 200mph, won every race that year and then next year came out with a new model with wing designs and far more horse power he’d retire that car, it would be the humane thing to do. If a bull had sired a million calves and was no longer up to the job you’d retire him, it would be the humane thing to do. If a woman can no longer have children they give her a hysterectomy, it’s the humane thing to do. He’s got people working 24 hours a day for his fans as he’s going to give one of those sleeping masks to everyone, as when he and Tony meet again, it’s the humane thing to do not to let them see it. He tell the Dirty White Boy don’t be foolish, he’s had his fun, it’s over. Another very good promo, although the part about 'it being the humane thing to do' probably went too long. It was a bit weird to hear some of the fans cheers for Jake at times during this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
