Jake the Snake & Alice Cooper

Jake "The Snake" Roberts turns 65 today! Here he is hanging out with Alice Cooper and pet python Damian in a true Rock ‘n’ Wrestling moment! They made a perfect pair; Jake the Snake was supposed to be as evil and demented as people thought Alice was during his '70s heyday as the king of shock rock. Alice escorted Jake to the ring for his WrestleMania III match against the Honky Tonk Man. Roberts lost the match, but Alice got a chance to terrorize Honky’s manager Jimmy Hart with Damian after the match and that ruled! Do you know what also rules about their post-match encounter? Remember that before he was involved in wrestling, Jimmy Hart had a previous life as the vocalist for '60s moptop rockers the Gentrys! Remember the song “Keep on Dancing”? That is Jimmy Hart’s old band! Two eras of rock music collided in the ring that evening, proving once again that wrestling is rock 'n’ roll and rock 'n’ roll is wrestling!
