In an interview with WWE’s official website, wrestling legends Jake “The Snake” Roberts discussed his return to the company on “Old School RAW”, his road to recovery and more.

Roberts noted that DDP called him on the Saturday before “Old School RAW” and stated that the WWE wanted to talk to Jake about an opportunity on Monday and noted that only DDP, Triple H, Vince McMahon, Mark Carrano and the person who arranged his travel were the only people who knew that he would be at the show that night. Jake revealed that he was flown into a different airport than the other wrestlers and was hidden in a bus for the most part of the day until 10 minutes before he hit the ring and stated that he was provided food by the WWE and a number to call if he needed anything during the day.

Jake also noted that he has a new found appreciation for CM Punk for how Punk handled the segment, got completely out of the picture and allowed Jake to have his moment. Jake stated that Punk really raised himself up on Jake’s list of people that he respects in the business.
