    To go from such a poignant and strong speech from Jake Roberts, to that terrible hornswoggle sketch was just typical WWE.

    :rolleyes: x 1000

    I think it was an attempt to lighten the mood.

    Why Hornswoggle still has a job is beyond me

    I didn't like the skit but wasn't surprised that they worked something in to lighten things up but if they had known what T was going to do I doubt they'd have booked it.

    What happened to Jake's voice? Consequences of crack-smoking?

    Among other things,nearly 30 years of drink and drug abuse would wreck anyone. I could still listen to him talk all day, hands down my favourite wrestler ever, not from an ability standpoint but the character and the aura he had.

    He claims it was a knee drop on the throat done arseways crushed his vocal cords. I'd imagine that's only partially true though.

    Jerry Lawler hit him in the throat years ago with a wine bottle during their feud, he always had a raspy voice though was part of his image.

    Hahahaha with all that has gone on over the weekend, with the Streak, Bryan, and now Warriors untimely passing, there are so many talking points that Mr.Ts speech is getting lost in the shuffle. What the foooooook was it all about?? would have loved to hear the backstage reactions to it.

    I'd say he was losing his sh1t back there. I didnt even watch it was skipping through the clip thinking it was ending and this is all I heard:

    "...I want to thank my mother.."
    "my mother, who gave up"
    "My mother.."
    "We had no shoes"
    "She worked 19 jobs..."
    "mother..."
