#3 Jake ‘The Snake’ Roberts
Let me start this one off by saying, I am well aware that the 61-year-old Hall of Famer is not at all capable of handling a full, 10-15 minute match. Where I am coming from with this selection, is a place of celebration and victory.
Please remember that just a couple of years ago, Jake ‘The Snake’ Roberts was living a drug-addicted, alcohol-fueled life of self-destruction.
Jake was essentially black-balled from all things WWE. But, when Diamond Dallas Page reached his hand down to offer his help, Jake humbly accepted and eventually turned his entire life around. The entire story is an emotional tale of ultimate redemption.
Since his recovery, Jake has mentioned on multiple occasions that he wants to compete one more time for the WWE.
Originally, he only wanted to be a surprise entrant in a Royal Rumble match. However, if the company were to somehow find a way to get Jake in the ring at WrestleMania 33 and just plant someone, anyone, with one more DDT, this fairytale would see it’s perfect ending.
