Cody Rhodes Discusses How Jake Roberts Was Ahead of His Time With His Work

– WLTX interviewed WWE Undisputed Champion Cody Rhodes ahead of last night’s SmackDown in Columbia, South Carolina. During the chat, Cody was asked which Superstar, past or present, he’d like to share the ring with. Cody Rhodes answered WWE Hall of Famer Jake The Snake Roberts. Below are some highlights (via Fightful):

“So I always, I change my answer so frequently and then people online, this is a polarizing subject. So I always say like the answer is going to change a lot. But I had recently started thinking the way I am as a wrestler and I guess a character and how I fit into WWE, I’d really like to get in there with Jake ‘The Snake’ Roberts Because Jake The Snake, when he was a bad guy, was really just like psychologically menacing and different. It wasn’t yelling. It wasn’t the like big bombastic 80s promos. He was really sinister, like ahead of his time.”
