Jake Roberts has had a lot of memorable rivalries throughout his illustrious WWE career, but which one is his favorite?
WWE Hall of Famer Jake “The Snake” Roberts recently sat down with Gameshub. When asked what his favorite rivalry was in his career, Roberts picked none other than the legendary Ricky “The Dragon” Steamboat.
“Ricky Steamboat. For him and I, we meshed perfectly,” Roberts said. “We didn’t have to think, didn’t have to talk, we just went out there and did it. We were just on the same page. I knew that wherever I needed him to be, he would be there. It’s dangerous out there in that damn ring.”
Roberts’ rivalry with Steamboat lasted for the majority of 1986 and climaxed with a “Snake Pit” match at Saturday Night’s Main Event that September. Steamboat would win the matchup.
A year later, Roberts and Steamboat would find themselves on the same side of things at Survivor Series as they teamed up with Randy Savage, Brutus Beefcake, and Hacksaw Jim Duggan.
