His promo skills are legit, but was he ever a real big draw?

"no"

They killed his push because the crowd cheered him over Hogan. He could of been one of the biggest if he wasn't such a wreck out of the ring

Who?

>Contrarian fags can't use the vanilla midget meme with based Roberts so they have to use 'muh draw'

>>1367541
This is why using a wrestler's "success" is a retarded argument

>>1367553
He wasn't a midget, he just wasn't jacked

He was tall and naturally built, not a roidmonkey. In other words, not Vince's cup of tea.

He was famous 10 years too early, would of been huge out of the stupid cartoon shit of the 80's

Jake Roberts as a heel is the scariest motherfucker in the history of wrestling

>>1367556
Agreed. Draw literally only matters to Vince and WWE shareholders.

>>1367572
Jake is like 6'5.
The guy was not a manlet.

Jake was an amazing talent on the mic and also a good worker. He was naturally a better heel and heels usually aren't draws. He was suppose to go against Hogan as a heel and may have went over. But the crowd actually started cheering for him. And Vince killed his push because "hurr durr heels should be booed".
>25 years later Roman is booed out of the building every night
>still pushed as a face

Jake's drug problems didn't help his career either.

Nobody cared about him outside the fact that he facilitated Undertaker's face turn and put Steve Austin over at a critical juncture

Also that botchamania staple
