[News Update] Jake Roberts Incident Takes Odd Twist

Chris Yandek of thesportsinterview.com spoke with an obviously embarrassed Jake "The Snake" Roberts this afternoon. During the interview, Roberts admitted having a beer during a radio interview at 8:00am Friday and forgetting everything thereafter. He said he did not remember anything after that drink other than "eating McDonald's."

Roberts said he was told he was taken to the hospital and noted he had bruises on his body and knots on his head although he is not sure how he got them.

Despite this, Roberts acknowledged he "fell off of the bus" when he had the first drink and offered his apologies. He concluded by saying he was "scared" and "crying a lot."

New details have come out via Jake Roberts' assistant Shannon. She sent the following statement to thesportsinterview.com:

"We have a witness to the effect of who MIGHT have made a direct attempt to do Jake great harm at the show. WE KNOW WHO YOU ARE. One of the men IN THE RING with Jake is somebody we are going to take a much closer look at. Somebody saw this man with an emvelope with some powder in it at the show. Somebody saw what happened here. We now are very SURE Jake was in fact drugged. More details will be forth coming as soon as we can get permission from this fine individual to offer them."
