Jake Roberts critical of modern wrestlers kicking out of finishing moves and not selling enough

During his podcast, WWE Hall of Famer Jake “The Snake” Roberts gave some criticism of modern wrestlers…

“What kills me is is they’ll go out and do all these horrible fu**ing crazy unbelievable spectacular moves and nobody gets beat by one of them, but they get beat by the most vicious hold in wrestling, the schoolboy. I hate that. God damn I hate that, and shame on you guys for doing the school boy you lazy fu**s. Is your fu**ing ego gotten so big that you won’t fu**ing get beat by the guy’s best maneuver? That’s what I want to get beat by. I want to get beat by that guy’s best maneuver, not a schoolboy where it’s an accident and I’m such a pu**y that I can’t kick out. Give me a break guys. Get your head out of your ass. Have some respect for your fellow combatant and go out there and sell a little bit. That’s my only bitch with these young guys. They don’t sell shit.” (quote courtesy of WrestlingNews.co)
