WWE Hall of Famer Jake “The Snake” Roberts appeared on an episode of his Snake Pit podcast, where he discussed several topics, including the brutal WWE travel schedule in the 1980s.
Roberts said, “Man, we were so busy we didn’t have time to communicate. We were running so hard. You know, seven days a week, twice on Saturday, twice on Sunday. Then, if you’re doing PPV, you work four times on TV. So figure it out, man. You didn’t have time to pull your underwear up.”
On the creative process in WWE when he first got there:
“No, the direction they put me was good, real good. And all I had to do was follow it. And I didn’t see anything they were doing that was wrong. So I was going to keep my mouth shut and keep rolling.”
