On a recent edition of his “The Snake Pit” podcast, WWE Hall of Famer Jake Roberts discussed traveling with his snake, The Ultimate Warrior losing the WWE Championship in 1991, Warrior apologizing to him at the 2014 WWE Hall of Fame ceremony, and more.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On the locker room reaction to Ultimate Warrior losing WWE Title: “I think relief. A lot of relief. You know, he was wound too tight, man. He was wound too tight.”
On Warrior apologizing to him at the WWE Hall of Fame in 2014: “I was ready to f**king fight, is what I was ready to do. I mean, he really cost me some big-time money, man… I’m sure glad I did [talk it out], because it took the monkey off my back. And then with the events that happened right after ‘Mania [Warrior dying]. I’m glad we had it out.”
On traveling with his snake: “The problems I had on the road with the damn snake. Oh, yeah, you know, I’d have to wake up in the middle of the night and go pee or something, you know. And I’d go into the bathroom, and there’s a snake. And it’s kind of hard to pull your junk out in front of a 15-foot python. Really is, that’s how to learn how to pi*s in beer bottles… usually he wasn’t in the bathtub, though. It’d be somewhere on the floor.”
