He actually looks like an old man now instead of an old crackhead. Thank you DDP.

[@Large23collectibles]

In the 80's, the DDT meant something. Jake would do the DDT once and it was all over. Nobody kicked out from The Snakes DDT.

[@dangrahamdrums]

So glad he’s cleaned himself up. Absolute legend of the ring.

[@darrenbalbarrens5095]

Please keep making Dark Side Of The Ring. An absolute phenomenal series.

[@Lilpresh42069]

Nobody’s ring psychology is even close to Jake’s level. Such a talented worker.

Joe Rogan: I mean the DDT seems dangerous but have you ever tried DMT

[@aaronlinton-chambers]

It’s good to see him him looking well again. Thank god DDP and his friends helped him and he is now at peace. He’s had such a terrible childhood.

If cigarettes could talk they would sound like Jake the Snake

[@omeyehead7436]

The 1st time I saw the ddt I thought " that sh*# hurts". Appropriately named

[@mirgill1]

With the DDT, and it's effect in actuality, it couldn't be more perfect for Jake's signature move and character. Salute.

[@NomadiqGentz]

Six clotheslines?

[@dannys1392]

I met this guy a few years back at Comic Con, one of the coolest most down to earth guys I've ever met. Thanks for the memory Jake and all the countless matches you gave me in my childhood, glad he turned his life around 🙂

[@bluebeard6189]

Ever since I was a kid I loved Jake The Snake.

[@andrewfanelli666]

These are amazing. Please keep this up. "Dark Side of the Ring" and the "Beyond the Ring" TH-cam clips are phenomenal! Best stuff on Viceland by far.

[@marlonbonnici]

Criminally underrated for one of the best in the profession.

[@j.styles8977]

He looks amazing. DDP yoga has done wonders.

[@shaunbang]

This man has gotten this far with a lifelong of addictions and pain. Just imagine what he could have done if he got sober when he was in his prime. Maybe it just wouldn’t be the same but I love Jake the Snake and I hope nothing but happiness for him
