During a recent edition of his “The Snake Pit” podcast, WWE Hall of Famer Jake Roberts discussed heel vs. babyface, whether he felt any extra pressure while teaming up with Honky Tonk Man at WrestleMania 3, and other topics.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On whether he had added pressure because it was WrestleMania 3: “I wanted to make the most of the moment because of, being WrestleMania 3 in front of all the people and hanging out with Alice Cooper. In high school, ‘School’s Out For Summer’ was the number-one song the year I graduated. And to have him in my corner just blew my mind.”
On not wanting to be a babyface in 1987: “Well, I still didn’t want to be a babyface. I just don’t like it, man.”
On liking being a heel: “I do more satisfying work. As a heel, you can go out there and you can go down any road you choose. But as a babyface, you gotta kind of get your parameters that you gotta follow. I got to kiss babies. What the f**k, are you serious? That’s not me, not at all.”
