Talk:Jake Roberts

message: Former WWF wrestler Jake the Snake is the result of father/daughter incest. Whether his mental problems and subsequent crack addiction in later life can be attributed to that, I guess we'll never know
Or so he claimed in the documentary I saw him in. Is it the kind of thing you'd tell a child?

No, Jake is NOT the result of father/daughter incest. His biological father, Grizzly Smith, raped the 13-year old daughter of the woman he was dating at the time (Jake's Grandmother), resulting in the conception of Jake. This is according to Roberts himself on both the Beyond the Mat DVD and his own documentary.

message: I went ahead and protected the page for 24 hours due to an ongoing WP:BLP debate. The claim if it can be substantiated in a more reliable source, is clearly notable, but MyClient, even from the individuals personal myClient account, is not sufficeint to overcome potential BLP violations.Balloonman (talk) 03:41, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I think you may have misread the article. The claim was not that he is in rehab. The claim was that news sites have reported that he is in rehab. This was supported with a link to a news site. GaryColemanFan (talk) 17:25, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I would also like to point out that the person who kept removing the rehab part has admitted that it's true, but is upset because they claim Roberts didn't want to reveal this fact yet (and yelled at Roberts family for confirming it on Roberts official MySpace page). So no one is denying that Roberts is in rehab. TJ Spyke 21:48, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

message: In a interview for the Masked Manic internet radio show that aired 04/09/2008, Jake says he has eight children. He also is said to have, since rehab, began working out again and added 35 lbs of muscle (so current weight is 290 lbs) but still had a gut that he wishes to lose.Rmccoy0017 (talk) 16:54, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

message: Hey guys.
I have a little online contact with Diamond Dallas Page.  I'm going to ask him if we can use the picture at http://www.ddpyoga.com/site/index.php/en/results/222 (the one on the right, showing him now, after his transformation).  Would everyone be cool with me replacing the picture if I get permission, considering it's at least a few years more recent?  I'm going to ask him now.  Someone may have to help me, if I get permission; I've never uploaded a file to Wikipedia before.
Cheers! "Yes...It's Raining" 12:47, 5 April 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  New Picture/DDP 

message: I'm not sure what the exact mistake is here, but I thought I should point it out. Under the Great Britain section, it states that 
'This did not involve challenging Zak Zodiac, son of Ricky Knight and Sweet Saraya, and who was only 13 at the time, to a fight, as has been previously stated by WAW.'
Sweet Saraya was born in the 1970s, so could not have been 13 years old at the time of the event. I don't know if this is a grammatical error and the author is referring to Zak Zodiac being 13 (I am unsure of his date of birth) or if the author is actually referring to Sweet Saraya's daughter, whose real name is Saraya-Jade (now better known as WWE's Paige) who would have been approximately 13 years old at the time.
Could someone who is more in the know suggest a re-write?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 31.185.218.242 (talk) 14:51, 30 July 2014 (UTC)

message: I'm afraid that it concerns Jake's AEW storyline and does not at all violate the NPOV policy, as is not meant to be fan hype. It is already mentioned that he confronted Cody on March 4 and became the manager of Lance Archer on March 11. Last night's Double or Nothing was a major point in their feud.2601:447:4100:C120:F97E:ED6B:ABE3:1D13 (talk) 18:12, 24 May 2020 (UTC)
