The Resurrection of Jake the Snake

This documentary is fantastic even if you don't follow pro wrestling and don't know who these people are. If nothing else it serves to inspire everyone who watches to never accept "never."

The saying on Jake's T-Shirt is quite a nice summary of the entire story... "My history is not my destiny."

Look, I've never really been a fan of wrestling; I use to watch it when I was little with my father, but quickly grew out of it. If it wasn't for stumbling across a youtube clip of Joe Rogan and Jake talking about his addiction and this film, I would have probably never have known of it's existence, let alone watch it.

With that being said, I am actually really glad that I gave it a shot. To be honest, I wasn't even sure of what I was getting into 100%. I expected a lot of wrestling backstory and filler, but instead I was left with a window into a broken man's soul and how he decided to cope with it and the process to get out of that rut.

As someone that dislikes wrestling, I still think that this is a film that should be watched. Even to this day (I watched this a month or so ago), I still hope that Jake is doing well and isn't going down the same traveled road.

As a long time pro wrestling fan first exposed to Jake the Snake Roberts over 35 years ago, I have been a fan of his work from the Mid- South days all the way to the genesis of Austin 3:16 and beyond. Knowing how sad the endings of most pro-wrestlers' stories end, I was elated to find out that he decided to let DDP help him out at the Accountability Crib. As a DDPYoga user I can tell you first hand that just letting the DVD sit on the shelf does NOT help you. Likewise, Jake had to do the work and be honest with himself and come face to face with his demons before he could find any real healing. The documentary staff did a wonderful job in balancing the good and the bad without being exploitative.

To me Jake Roberts is the most notorious liar i have ever seen. I never believed a word that came out of this guys mouth. DDP has the patience of a saint.

When Jake needed help "WE" were there for him and made him cry tears of joy, because US fans "give a damn" about THREE legends of wrestling. At the helm Diamomnd Dallas Page yes he is thee rarest Diamond YOU will ever find, to help Jake battle his demons and overcome the odds along side Scott Hall who was drinking himself blind together all three went on a journey to HELL & back.

Look At Jake now a comedy tour, a new lease of life living to win the same goes to Scott Hall. I have been a wrestling fan since 1989/1990 This is Diamond Dallas Page giving back to the two people who got him into wrestling and this is how he re-pays them by paying ti forward being there when they needed help the most.

With us fan donating what we could afford makes me smile from ear to ear because they truly deserve it.

Jake now has a comedy tour, Scott is doing appearances.

BOTH are now Hall Of Famers Diamond Dallas Page should get inducted by both of them DDP's accolades alone is a Hall Of Fame Worthy career.

It was a hard road for both Scott & Jake in this movie you will see their pain, their heartache, the ups and downs and all in between.

I wanna thank all of you including myself who bought the DVD via Indiegogo you are a million to one. So are you DDP, Jake & Scott if you ain't down with that i got two words for ya.
