10 Times Wrestlers Visibly Corpsed On WWE TV
10 times talents were caught out corpsing on TV
4. Dean Ambrose with Jake 'The Snake' Roberts
For those who know the story of Jake Roberts, you’ll know it had a very sad part in the middle.
Years of substance abuse left the legendary wrestler on the brink of death, until his life was turned around thanks in no small part to the efforts of Diamond Dallas Page.
On the January 6, 2014 “Old School” Edition of Raw, Roberts’ incredible theme music played over the loudspeakers and The Snake stepped out in front of a WWE audience for the first time in almost nine years.
Everyone was thrilled to see him, including Dean Ambrose (who was standing in the ring). Roberts was one of his heroes growing up, and now here he was face-to-face with him.
After a GTS from CM Punk, Ambrose was out cold. This allowed Roberts to pull his trademark trick of laying a live snake across the body of his fallen foe.
The Shield member was supposed to be unconscious, but you can clearly see a smile creep across his face as he lives out a childhood dream.
