Jake Roberts diagnosed with cancer

[Postman Dave]

Jake “The Snakeâ€￾ Roberts has been diagnosed with cancer.

The 2014 WWE Hall of Fame inductee revealed to TMZ.com that he has a cancerous tumor behind his knee which is slowly expanding into his muscle. Last month, he noticed a tumor behind his knee the size of a half dollar so he had it tested. On Friday, doctors informed him that the test came back positive for cancer.

Roberts is scheduled to undergo surgery on Tuesday. He still has plans to wrestle for Jersey Championship Wrestling on March 14.

“If the devil can’t defeat me, cancer doesn’t stand a chance in hell! Pray for sick children who face this horrible disease ’cause The Snake will be just fine,â€￾ said Roberts.

Regarding his induction into the WWE Hall of Fame in April, Roberts says nothing will stop him from arriving to New Orleans, Louisiana for the ceremony.

Poor Jake, yet another demon he needs to overcome, just as things were starting to come together.

Hope he beats the shit out of this.

Jake will give that cancer tumor a DDT and throw Damien on it. Good luck Jake

Really is the worst timing since everything was going so well but Jake's one guy that can come back from anything. Cancer can't stop him.

 

[Jimmy King]

Jake is a tough son of a gun, and I believe that he'll overcome this and kick that cancer's ass.

All the best to Jake.

Damn. Really is shitty timing since he was finally really getting his shit together, but hope this is okay and he'll heal up and just motivate him to keep going.

Fuck cancer....hell, fuck EVERY disease.

Good luck with your fight, Snake.
