[1992-10-10-WCW-Saturday Night] Cactus Jack and Jake Roberts

[Loss]

Talk about it here.

Jim Ross is afraid to be near the snake, so Cactus conducts the interview. Awesome.

[Tim Evans]

Nice touch with The Snake biting the Wheel knob.

I liked how Cactus was keeping a close eye on the cobra.

[El-P]

Yeah, Cactus was weary of the snake. I would be too. At one point the cobra makes a sudden move and Cactus nearly jumps back. Jake holding the cobra while he's biting the handler's glove was creepy

[Kevin Ridge]

Cactus is very focused on the snake which is aggressively trying to bite Roberts the whole time. The last image of it with the foam mic top in its mouth was nice.

More awesome build to Halloween Havoc. Cactus Jack wants to make a deal, so he spins the wheel as the cobra bites off his foam microphone cover.

[WingedEagle]

Cactus is great on the mic again, and he gets Jake talking about Spinner's Choice option which he says could end Sting's career and teases that it'll end up with a snake on Sting. Good stuff.

Can't believe no one has commented on 1992 Foley's stunning resemblance to Dutch Mantel. Though it may be just the hair and beard.

Jake's promo was so good that I didn't even notice the cobra. As he himself says, the snake in the bag (or in this case, in the hand) isn't the one you have to worry about.

 

Nice tease for the Spinner's Choice option, but wouldn't Sting have the same option? How did they figure out who would actually spin the wheel?

 

I would have liked to have seen a test match so we would know something of what to expect at Havoc, although how anyone could have pulled some of those matches on the wheel without bleeding I'll never know.

 

Cactus Jack and Jake would have made a great team, but the one "face of Foley" that I wish Jake would have hooked up with is Mankind. Could you imagine how Jake's mind could have run with a character like that, even while delivering promos as his manager?

Foley conducting this interview was an awesome choice.  I liked how the cobra played along to make the promo even better.
