#2 Lucifer the cobra - Jake the Snake Roberts

That's right, Jake Roberts is on this list twice!

Though Damian was the snake Jake most often brought to the ring, there was a time when he was accompanied by a cobra named Lucifer. The cobra had been de-venomed, but still retained its fangs.

Jake would deploy the cobra on a helpless Macho Man during a WWE segment that ended up being far more gruesome than intended. Jake was supposed to let the cobra bite Savage, then remove it quickly. However, the snake was in full panic mode and latched onto Savage's arm and would not let go.

It took several minutes before Roberts could coax the serpent to release its hold. Many television stations complained and refused to show the sequence unless it was blurred out.

Without a shadow of a doubt, a cobra is the most lethal animal anyone brought to the ring, ever.
