Now I see a lot of people online and in wrestling communities trying to tear down the old Snake with what they consider the "Worst promo of all time" but in reality we the masses have been too dumb to understand the level of kino that Jake was throwing down
>Everyone over the years have attributed the "You wanna play 21? I've got 22" line as being a sign that Jake doesn't know the rules of Blackjack
>In actuality what Mr. Roberts means is that he has a .22 Caliber gun, and that even if his opponent truly has the perfect hand he will not walk away the victor because Jake is vicious and will do anything to win.
>The line "Do you wanna play blackjack? I got two of those too" is then him saying that he has two actual blackjacks, a type of crude club used to bash people
>Finally the line "Hey do you guys ever get those really deep gurgley farts? The ones that you can feel right in your hip and pelvis. The really deep ones that make ripples and makes your skin feel hollow? I live for those farts. Not smelling them thats gross. Doing them. Doing them drives me. Everyday I manipulate my sitting positions and my adaptive breathing measures to encapsulate more fart in my intestines. I end the day snug as a bug in a rug tucked in by 73 year old mom from head to toe and I cock my leg up and I arch my lower back and I rumble the head boards. I love those gurgley bastards. I live for them." is probably the most kino of them all
It's time to face the facts, that even while ballooned off his ass on enough drugs to kill a bull, Jake Roberts could still cut a more cerebral promo than anyone else in the history of the business.
