WWE Hall of Famer Jake โ€œThe Snakeโ€ Roberts took to an episode of his Snake Pit podcast, where he talked about a number of topics including why its important for wrestlers to have a good relationship with commentators.

Roberts said, โ€œWell, your commentator can make you or break you. You know, by saying small things and by saying big things. So just think about that for a moment. They can make you the second coming of Christ. They can do anything they want because theyโ€™ve got the power of that f***ing microphone. And if you got the microphone, youโ€™re the one with the power. You can make what they are looking at. The biggest, baddest son of a bitch on the planet. Or you can make that guy a whimpering fool. But what do you say. So, yeah, you better have a relationship. I never I never nurtured a relationship with one of the announcers. I just kind of like call it where it is. But I never had a problem with anybody either.โ€

Roberts also talked about if there was a commentator who told his story the best.

โ€œYeah, Gordon [Solie] was very special. Jim Ross was very special.โ€
