1. Ambushing The Undertaker On The Funeral Parlour
In February 1992, Jake Roberts showed up to The Funeral Parlour to demand an explanation as to why The Undertaker protected Miss Elizabeth from being smashed in the face with Jake's chair. When Jake demanded to know whose side The Undertaker was on, the Deadman simply told him "Not yours". This led to a crazy sequence of events that saw Jake steal The Phenom's urn, toss the it into an open casket before he then slammed the lid down on Taker's fingers as he tried to retrieve it. Roberts then added injury to insult by DDT'ing Bearer and hitting Taker with a few brutal chair shots over the head and back. Jake eventually began to retreat backstage, while the battered Undertaker stalked him, dragging the locked casket behind him with one hand. Roberts revealed in a later interview that he himself wrote this angle. Unfortunately, this feud also wouldn't end well for Roberts, as The Undertaker went on to defeat him rather easily at WrestleMania VIII. Jake would leave the WWF immediately after the match due to disputes with Vince McMahon over a promised backstage writing position. Jake would eventually find redemption and retribution when he was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame class of 2014, alongside the same Warrior and Bearer he once traumatized. He is today, by all accounts, a happy and content man who has found peace and sobriety, and wants to help others find the same. But if we learned anything during those nine months he was WWE's most heinous heel, it's never trust a snake. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZjIFYyCWS3g
