Jake Roberts Believes Ric Flair Tarnished His Legacy

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 if he was able to see fellow WWE Hall of Famer Hulk Hoganโ€™s viral negative RAW on Netflix appearance.

Roberts said, โ€œNo, I wish I caught that, actually. It would have been something I would have enjoyed.โ€

On Ric Flair thinking he could wrestle again:

โ€œWow. Please donโ€™t, Ric. Please donโ€™t.โ€

On if he thinks Flair has tarnished his legacy:

โ€œYeah. It is [a shame], man. But he keeps grabbing for straws.โ€

On smaller promotions disappearing in the late 80s:

โ€œYeah, it concerned me, man. Because you donโ€™t have any competition, and no choices. Thatโ€™s a bad thing. You know, you back yourself into a corner there, and you canโ€™t come out of it. Thereโ€™s only one dog to ride, and if that dog wants to bite your leg, then youโ€™re in trouble. So yeah, it was pretty scary, man.โ€
