[1994-06-04-SMW-TV] Interview: Dirty White Boy / Interview: Jake Roberts

[Loss]

Talk about it here.

It looks like Jake's promos have forced Dirty White Boy to step up his game! He was always a great talker, but this is the best thing he ever did, and one of the best interviews of the year. He responds to Jake recently putting his hands on Dirty White Girl.

 

Jake is back at the set. Jake couldn't be bothered to listen, because he was signing autographs for other wrestlers. He shoots on his dad and spits on the ground and says the mistakes of others are what has made him so twisted. Jake is awesome!

 

Both guys rock.

Dirty White Boy’s promo was awesome. No screaming or yelling needed here. He’s really broken up about not being able to protect his wife. Jake is good also, again not taking responsibility for his actions but hard to top DWB’s promo.

[Exposer]

Wow, really an excellent promo by DWB here. Jake's was great also but I was really impressed with the delivery from DWB.

[soup23]

DWB conveys his anger and emotion amazingly. Jake does his best in studio promo to date. I really wish the matches could live up to the promos this feud got because it could have been feud of the year for 1994 easily.

DWB goes the opposite route of Randy Savage, playing it low-key and simmering. Just when you think Jake is about to be the most screwed wrestler alive, DWB sort of trails off, as if he's doubting himself. Outstanding character work. Meanwhile Jake continues to be an unabashed asshole before going into a sort of stock promo that he's used before. Not that that matters, because a stock Jake promo is still awesome.

The Dirty White Boy says that another man has put their hands on his old lady and Jake Roberts has no idea what’s going through his mind when he sees him drop his wife on her head. Jake can beat on him all night long it doesn’t matter because he can take it, but he messed with his old lady. When they said their vows, for better or for worse, it wasn’t supposed to be anything like this, it’s like he’s taken something from him. The White Girl has said that she forgives him ‘don’t worry about it’, but he can’t even look his wife in the eye. Yes she’s forgave him, but he can’t forgive himself.

 

Jake didn’t get a chance to listen to the Dirty White Boy’s interview as some of the other wrestlers in the back were wanting his autograph and pictures with him. He tried to accommodate most, but he’s never liked that Rock & Roll Express and is not going to take pictures with them no matter what they offer him! Jake says that when a child comes into this world does he know how to eat, how to fight, how to lie or how to steal? It’s the parents who teach them what to be, ‘Thanks Dad!’ So whatever he has done is not his fault (Bob Caudle starts shaking his head and going ‘oh Jake!’), it’s all because of outside impacts, of other people making the mistakes and ‘Tony’ made the mistake of getting in the ring with him. Whatever he has to do, be it taking his belt or abusing something that he holds on to at night, he’ll do. He’ll hurt them, keep them, use them and when he’s through using them he’ll spit them out

 

A very different interview than what you would normally expect from an angry and upset Dirty White Boy. No ranting or raving, very similar in that way to a Jake Roberts interview, speaking quietly, softly and troubled that he wasn’t able to protect his wife. Fantastic stuff from both and one of the few saving graces in the promotion at this time.
