Jake The Snake Roberts on Billy Jack Haynes

[@arnoldrobertsiii8908]

When Jake says, "I never felt safe around him", that saying something.

[@mondocjenson-dy8zd]

Entertainers and performers are paid to be 🎭 Bipolar but dammnnn!! 😂

[@thomasallen4340]

Jake was the best at psychology. If he says he feels not safe around someone. That's a problem

[@IronDiva]

Oof

[@JayStar-yj9pu]

Exactly

[@People-are-strange85]

Right!

[@Konquered]

Bill was a regular weekly customer at my business. He was actually one of my favorite customers. I hadn’t seen him since about beginning of Dec. He was very nice and he always held his wife’s hand as he walked through our store. I didnt know he used to be a pro wrestler; he never mentioned it. My co worker said Bill did mention he suffered from CTE. 🙏🏻 prayers out to Bill and his family

[@romanvillegas7280]

You're a legend Jake

[@trueyankee4767]

Huge JTS fan. Nothing but love and so glad he is clean. Only thing is with his COPD I can tell it's hard for long conversations and I wish there were more in depth answers. But hey we get to still here him in 2024.

[@djpuplex]

Billy fits the Portland way of life

[@briankady1456]

He's certainly contributed to the weirdness that is Portland, Oregon.

[@JonDoe-e1h]

Absolutely 💯

[@Holden308]

When I was a kid growing up in Australia in the 80s and 90s, one of the American TV shows we would get weekly was Unsolved Mysteries with Robert Stack. And one of the stories from that show, the boys on the train tracks in Arkansas in August 1987 for some reason always stayed in my memory. Imagine my shock years later when, also being a long time wrestling fan, seeing a shoot interview with Billy Jack Haynes and him telling that he was there that night in AK as muscle for the Mesa drug runners and that while he didn't kill the boys himself ... he was actually the one who put their dead bodies on the tracks for the train to run over.

[@MasonDaniels-ef6mf]

To bad its been proven to be a lie he wasn't even close to there he was wrestling in Portland that night

[@Holden308]

@aniels-ef6mf ... Haynes was wrestling for the WWF at the time and had been wrestling in Detroit the night before. He wasn't anywhere near Portland. Besides, there were witnesses who confirmed his story.

[@ApothecaryGrant]

I think Billy believes it but shouldn’t

[@nonyabiz550]

​@@Holden308And he was nowhere near Arkansas either! He very well may have had a hand in the murder of Gino Hernandez though

[@mox19380]

@@Holden308 i believe he was in cali..maybe sacramento. i don't think he was wrestling on the day of the murder but wrestled a day before and 2-days after. makes getting to rural arkansas to stand in as muscle for a murder highly HIGHLY unlikely

[@LaurencerAmspoke]

BJH was a legitimate badass

[@ChickenChowMein77]

Jake "the Snake" Roberts looks great. A little grayer but that of course is to be expected with age but he really looks good and he sounds like he's doing good too! You go, Jake!👍 That makes me smile because I grew up watching wrestling in the 80s/early 90s and Jake the Snake was one of my favorites.

[@puzzymonsta69]

Ya money will do that

[@necron99.aka-sammyboy92]

Dude dated me mum back in 1985/6. I got carted off to pops house, while Billy Jack and Chris Adam's were over. I seen him once at the house when i was 9, and man that was crazy. I had no idea my idols were at the House. Billy Jack was a bad ass, and not " feeling safe" , well, yeah, he's an Alpha among Alpha's. I wouldn't either! Lol.

[@McStarkiller666]

He says he witnessed two boys get killed and left on railroad tracks in the early 90's in Arkansas he's not an alpha he's a monster that could control it

[@carloselizondo7671]

I too was there mate. Your mum was a lot of fun.

[@Anyname2025]

Lol you saying your momma was one of the ring rats

[@christopherjames9843]

Dude, that story is really inappropriate to share with strangers. Who your mom did or didn't "date" should not be out there for anybody on earth to read.

[@bullock4211]

Cheeks were getting clapped, that's why you were shipped to Pops when Billy Jack and Gentleman Chris Adams came over

[@drmgiverdrmgiver5335]

A little off? Just a little? Dude was coocoo.

[@JayStar-yj9pu]

When a legend like Jake Roberts who INVENTED "Dark Side of the Ring..." tells you someone is "off", it's SCRIPTURE!!

[@AS7607]

Billy Jack Haynes really has some serious mental health issues. Whatever happened that day really set him off and he took it out on his wife. It’s a really sad and f***ed up situation. She didn’t deserve that. The poor woman was suffering from dementia. I feel so bad for her family.

[@straightchad8059]

Billy Jack Haynes the master of " full nelson " , many wrestlers had said Billy's full nelson could break tree trunks !

[@justint8635]

BJH's wifes daughter has been posting on YT. She paints a different picture other than "he killed her because of her condition".

[@ottoacid1800]

We'll see what information comes out if it goes to trial. Physician assisted suicide is actually legal in Oregon, so my first impulse is to believe the daughter that this wasn't some sort of mercy killing.

[@richardstetson8221]

He said in a shoot interview from like 2009 that when his dad was at the end he was thinking about shooting his dad then himself his shoot interviews definitely make a good case for him being out of his mind if you haven't seen them look up BJH shoot there's one from '03 '09 and '18 they get crazier from one to the next

[@nonyabiz550]

Where is she posting?

[@dwade6322]

How many wrestlers from the 80's have NO drama? Absolutely none.

[@BigBadJerryRogers]

What about Tito Santana? I don't recall Ricky Steamboat having any notable drama. Rick Martel? Sgt Slaughter? Nikolai Volkoff? Lanny Poffo?

[@People-are-strange85]

Jake the snake is wrestling!

[@CatsClaw44]

He killed his wife because allegedly she had dementia. I wish Marcus had mentioned that just to see Jake's reaction.

[@SeamHead33]

Where'd you hear that?

[@chrisgullett4332]

When he started claiming he was involved with the two boys getting ran over by the train, I knew he was crazy.

[@donjohn2695]

Billy killed before

[@HowardHarper-ct9mx]

​@@chrisgullett4332yeah I seen an interview with Billy in it, and he said he didn't kill the two boys, but he confess to putting there bodies on the train track. I bet he killed them and besides his wife and the two teenage boys, there's no telling how many people he has killed. I believe he's a serial killer. Maybe we will find out in the future, what dark, evil, twisted shit he has done in the past.

[@georgehutchins3419]

Doesn’t matter how sick she was, that’s still not for him to decide.

[@ModernDayRenaissanceMan]

Let's get real here. I'm not buying Jake the Snake here because Jake and the snake only looks out for Jake the Snake. I love him but he is not one to speak on this issue. Billy Jack Haines has been in love with his wife his entire life and this was a crime of mercy. They had a deal worked out and he did what he needed to do. People have the right to go out the way that they want to and the government should not intervene and that is actually the law of quite a many country. It may not be here in America but that doesn't mean we can't fix it and that doesn't mean when 12 jurors get in that box they can't exercise their power and let this man go home and mourn his wife as he sees fits. What happens between them in their elder years of marriage is between them.

[@thacryinggame]

I was thinkimg the same but i have no facts

[@ApothecaryGrant]

You got to know its a dicey situation to be near a 6’3” 270 lbs ex boxer with a jeckyl and hyde switch . Setting him off was easy before he was juiced up . Imagine when he was on the sauce too .

[@AIAudiobooks411]

BJH was a good guy, one of the nicest guys. just dont fuck with him.

[@danielfarmer9533]

Isn’t it ironic. In the mid 80s fans disliked Jake and worshipped Haynes. However now away from wrestling they love Jake and despise Billy

[@mem1o]

I don't think Billy Jack was inherently a bad guy. He spoke about mercy-killing his father when he was immobile and blind. I think in some sick twisted way, Billy Jack actually thought he was 'helping' his demented wife, which obviously isn't something a normal person would do. However, he never struck me as a psychopath until his later years; as a younger man he was a caring person and even polite, from what footage shows. Aging is a bitch, not everyone can do it gracefully.

[@johndrake3472]

He has the eyes of a shark, who would feel safe around him.

[@PaulShaw-ex7ri]

He has been charged with nothing , we have zero idea what happened. Billys child hood was horrible . This comment is here. Under youres because i couldnt add it in the regular spot.

[@dr.roberts4508]

When Jake says your off.

[@kenterminateddq5311]

I've seen many shoot interviews on Billy Jack Haynes and, I agree with Jake, Billy seems like a few screws missing from his brain.

[@richardstetson8221]

They definitely make a good case for him being nuts they just keep getting crazier from one to the next

[@briankady1456]

BJH did seem to be a bit unhinged.

[@stacybry29]

Looks like the Snake has some new dentures.

[@KINDIRBUDS]

Don't tell the part that his wife was very sick. Why leave that out?

[@TheBigChad]

He loved her with every fiber in his body. I think she had gotten so far gone and so sick that Billy wanted to end her suffering. I’ve known BJH my whole life and yeah the guy had a screw loose but shit man everyone from those years were crazy. It was only a decade ago that Jake the snake was doing crack in his piss stained underwear. I have no doubt in my mind that he didn’t kill her out of malice or ill will.

[@Zapgro7629]

Well he finally gets his main event wish. A cage match......

[@AWrestlingHistorian]

[@puzzymonsta69]

[@nirad1834]

Mercy Killing, wife Suffered from Demetia!

[@ArthurIdis-c7k]

I never cared for Billy Jack Haynes. He kinda looks like a roided up bearded version of Robert Blake... another murderer.

[@1980bwc]

The real reason Jake didnt feel safe around Billy, was because Billy refused to smoke crack with him. So he thought Billy was an undercover cop. Jake finally changed his opinion though, and began feeling safe around him, when Billy whipped out an entire bottle of Vicodin, chopped it up and snorted it.

[@cutekanjii]

Think he meant that he was a loose cannon who could just snap anytime unexpectedly

[@thejmc4074]

This is believable

[@chrsitopherbreuer2077]

Something like that!!

[@Journey-of-1000-Miles]

I never liked BJH, ever since I heard about him beating the crap out of Iron Mike Sharp.

[@kevthegoat8774]

There's a lot of reasons to not like Haynes but I don't think that's one of them, it was a mutual fight between two wrestlers.

[@Bearlyontime]

BJH was an angry man.

[@JamesSmith-sw3nk]

Billy Jack Haynes is clearly not sane.

[@jakelang806]

Yeah ok Jake you say that now smh

[@Mr.Deko86]

Allegedly, it was an agreement between the 2 as she was terminally ill. Again, thats kwhat has been said. Something about failing to get the right assisted suicide permits which led to their decision. Lets see how this goes.

[@BuddyRose-kt1nu]

I never. Jake Roberts talking about someone being "off" and having a weird look in their eyes. Please tell him to look in a mirror

[@trappenweisseguy27]

Exactly, I wouldn’t feel safe around Jake.

[@robertcornelius3514]

The men in black suits set Billy up. He was about to spill the beans and they beat him to the punch.

[@joshbadger622]

Are you kidding me Jake? Bret Hart is the best ever and a much better wrestler than you ever were.

[@lesglover6515]

Come on now. I don't think I'm going to take it real credible when Coke head Jake, the snake starts talking about other people being off. Jake has done some nasty, nasty things in his life. Apparently he's cleaned up now. That's great. But it pisses me off when people talk s hit about other wrestlers or other people for that matter. Because all these guys trash talking? They wouldn't have said one word to Billy Jack back in the day. Billy Jack was one bad m thrfkr. So it's easy to talk shytt now.

[@tritchie6272]

Well to be fair to Jake,whom I've never been a fan of. Not only was Billy Jack abit off with potential to snap if you got stupid. But Billy Jack also had the Psychical ability to back it when he seen fit. Others have said that Billy Jack was legit tough. So if BJH would have ever went off on Jake, I don't think Jake could have done much.

[@lesglover6515]

@@tritchie6272 I agree bud. Billy Jack Haynes would have ended Jake Roberts no question.

[@foreverunsaved6661]

​@tritchie6272 - if Jake and Haynes went at it, Jake might want to give his heart and soul to the lord, because his ass would belong to Billy Jack Haynes

[@straightchad8059]

Jake was merely telling about the situation at that time and place , not like saying he's better than Billy Jack .

[@kevthegoat8774]

Jake too has done some scummy things, I wouldn't trust either of them, but I'd fight Jake Roberts in his prime twice a year before I had to fight Haynes just once.

[@1980bwc]

What I'll never understand is, that all these wrestlers, and little marks like Mark-us here, who know exactly what Billy is capable of doing to people who cross him, yet they run their mouths about him anyway. Theres alot of that going around in the wrestling podcast community. You have these little dudes like Marcus, who makes a holocaust victim look like Superstar Billy Graham, and doesnt have enough sense to know what and what not to say about somebody, who could snap him like a twig.

[@Anyname2025]

Jake living under a rock or something? How tf did he not know about Billy jack going off the deep end for real
