Guest Genecide1 Posted April 23, 2002 Report Posted April 23, 2002 Me personally it's the one they had on beyond the mat where he's talking to Ted Dibiase at Summerslam. it is spectacular and chilling
Guest razazteca Posted April 23, 2002 Report Posted April 23, 2002 Wrestlemania 8 promo just before his match against the Undertaker was good.
Guest Some Guy Posted April 23, 2002 Report Posted April 23, 2002 Gene, I think the promo you mentioned happened at Mania 6, if it's the "wallowing in the muck of your own avarous" or something like that. Jake's "trust me" persona was great, his promos against Macho and Taker were incredible.
Guest Genecide1 Posted April 23, 2002 Report Posted April 23, 2002 yup now that i think about it it may have been from wrestlemania 6, although the idea of him doing it behind a summerslam logo is a tad confusing. And yes those "Trust Me" promos were the stuff of legends and something a certain gap-toothed Canadian should be studying chapter and verse as the basis for every promo he ever does from this moment forward.
Guest dreamer420 Posted April 23, 2002 Report Posted April 23, 2002 I love the interview Jake did after slapping Liz in the face at Tuesday in Texas. What a sinister motherfucker!
Guest Genecide1 Posted April 23, 2002 Report Posted April 23, 2002 Yup I agree. He was always sinister even as a face but no one ever played it up until he became a heel and betrayed the Ultimate Warrior in the longest and most drawnout heel turn I have ever seen, which also proved once and for all that the Warrior was dumber than anyone should legally have a right to be.
Guest dreamer420 Posted April 23, 2002 Report Posted April 23, 2002 He was so much better as a heel. His promos were always better suited for a heel type character and Jake slapping Liz was the ultimate heel act.
Guest Genecide1 Posted April 23, 2002 Report Posted April 23, 2002 yeah they were. I think his ultimate WWF heel act was getting the Cobra to bite Macho Man Randy Savage
Guest Posted April 23, 2002 Report Posted April 23, 2002 yeah they were. I think his ultimate WWF heel act was getting the Cobra to bite Macho Man Randy Savage That scared me when I was eight.
Guest Genecide1 Posted April 23, 2002 Report Posted April 23, 2002 hell B it scares me now. Cuz watching it from the hated smart perspective you realize that Jake was into drugs heavy by that point and probably had no control over the snake. So if shit happened Macho might be dead
Guest dreamer420 Posted April 23, 2002 Report Posted April 23, 2002 That scares me right now. With the venom taken out or not that is still a fucking cobra.
Guest dreamer420 Posted April 23, 2002 Report Posted April 23, 2002 god we are all pussies aren't we? i think so
Guest Genecide1 Posted April 23, 2002 Report Posted April 23, 2002 it's a damn shame. by the way Dreamer check the best tights thread.
Guest nWoScorpion Posted April 23, 2002 Report Posted April 23, 2002 You are.... a pussy! you are..... a pussy! lol
Guest Genecide1 Posted April 23, 2002 Report Posted April 23, 2002 thanks for reminding me Scorpion. Dick
Guest FakeRazor Posted April 23, 2002 Report Posted April 23, 2002 His pre-match promo at Wrestlemania 6 is my personal favorite as well. It's one of my favorite promos ever.
Guest crandamaniac Posted April 23, 2002 Report Posted April 23, 2002 What? no love for his Heroes of Wrestling Promo? I mean come on, who'll ever forget the classic line.. "You got 21, i got 22. Wanna play blackjack, i got 2 of those too." Classic!
Guest Genecide1 Posted April 23, 2002 Report Posted April 23, 2002 but he was drunk then and damn near useless by that point
Guest Drury37 Posted April 23, 2002 Report Posted April 23, 2002 I liked his prematch interview at WWF WrestleMania VII right before he took on Rick Martel in the blindfold match. Thanks.
Guest Genecide1 Posted April 23, 2002 Report Posted April 23, 2002 To quote Malcolm Mclaren in a VH1 Behind the music on 1977, " I liked them all."
Guest dreamer420 Posted April 23, 2002 Report Posted April 23, 2002 Even the one from Heroes of Wrestling?!?!
Guest Genecide1 Posted April 23, 2002 Report Posted April 23, 2002 'cept that one of course. but other than that they are all pretty much golden
Guest dreamer420 Posted April 23, 2002 Report Posted April 23, 2002 Has anyone that has seen Beyond The Mat noticed how he talks the same in real life almost?
Guest Genecide1 Posted April 23, 2002 Report Posted April 23, 2002 Yeah I have noticed that. By the way I am watching Top Gun
Guest Genecide1 Posted April 23, 2002 Report Posted April 23, 2002 I know you didn't ask. But I just love this movie so much it's hard to speak about anything else. 'sides I actually have the Iceman as my avatar which proves this point. Anyway I was wondering something: Which Current wrestler would do best with a Jake Roberts-style promo?
Guest dreamer420 Posted April 24, 2002 Report Posted April 24, 2002 If Chris Benoit had Jake's mic skills and interviewing abilities then he would be the undisputed man. Also I have noticed that lately the Undertaker's promo's are starting to sound a little like Jake.
Guest Genecide1 Posted April 24, 2002 Report Posted April 24, 2002 yeah they are sounding a lil' bit like Jake, although nothing I think will ever sound as good as Jake. And imagine Chris Benoit with Jake's mic skills and ability to scare people
