Alright, let's get the basics out of the way:

Sent: 5/10/11
Rec'd: 5/23/11
Paid: $18.50

For those of you who don't know, Jake charges for his auto TTM, and you have to email his assistant for all of the details. I ordered a 'high quality' picture of Jake putting his snake on Mr. Perfect (Mr. Perfect is my favorite wrestler of all time). What I got was a, by most people's accounts, a standard quality picture. That was a little dissapointing.

Secondly, if they allow it, I'd suggest sending your own sharpie. The pen he used on my pictures was sub-par. Also, while we're at it, just send your own picture, too.

Also, I'm assuming because Macho Man died before they sent out my picture, he also included a 5"x7" (or around that) picture of him getting the snake to bite Macho Man, also personalized and signed.

I also sent a sheet of paper with four questions on it, hoping he would answer them, but all he did was write at the bottom 'Read, answers are all there. Jake 'The Snake' Roberts'. That was a dissapointment, but expected really.

I wished I could have gotten a better response (better pen and picture quality), but I got what I wanted (somewhat). I just wish they would try harder, seeing how we have to pay for it.

A picture he included, most likely due to Macho Man's death. Thought it was a nice gesture.

I met Jake at a match a year ago. He was nice and friendly as long as you showed interest in his merchandise... $20 for an autograph,$10 to have a pic with him which he never bothered to attempt standing for....once your done it's "out the way please, other people are in line". No I wasn't expecting to hang out and discuss politics, but it was literally that. No hey thanks for the support or purchasing items, it was Move.... If you don't appreciate your fans then why bother attempting to socialize with them?

That's what I've read and heard from all over the place. One day, I MAY try to get a picture with him, if he's going to be at a convention I'm already going to. He won't be the reason I go to anything.

Have you seen any of the newer Youtube videos? Fans are outside where he is, trying to talk to him about admiring him, and he's just ignoring everyone and completely harassing this woman who's just trying to shake his hand. It's pitiful.

I only paid for it because he WAS one of my favorite wrestlers, and I wanted it on my 'Man Room Wall' when I get a house. He's just one of those people who don't really care about his fans, no matter how much he says so.

I haven't seen any videos, but I know first hand you ain't nothing but a dollar sign to him.

When I Found out a bunch of the old school wrestlers was coming to town, I flipped out because I was finally able to see my childhood hero's, along with a few newer stars. Hacksaw Jim Duggan,Brutus the barber Beefcake,Samoa Joe,Jake the snake,AJ Styles was just a few that I knew was coming.

All but Somoa Joe came out. The way Jake acted,I wished he didn't either. All the others was happy to see you, or at least pretended to anyways. Plus it was $10 an autograph and a FREE PIC with them.
