    Broke my wrestling heart

    There are stories that make you upset and the there are stories that drive you to utter pain. Im only 34 years old so growing up I was a huge Jake the snake fan. You always hear stories of how the road affected these guys health back in the day, but you don't think of the impact it has later in their lives. To watch Jake from the beginning to the end of this docu it was amazing. I never would have in a million years thought he would have been in that bad of shape mentally and physically if I didn't see it with my own two eyes. Also, to see another one of my heroes Scott Hall recover the way he has made my inner 10 year old wrestling fan nearly jump through my skin. Way to go scott!! I absolutely recommend anyone who is in the process of recovering, or anyone who is just a true wrestling fan like myself to drop what you are doing and watch this flick. What Dally is doing with these guys is truly amazing. Heck, my wife and I purchased DDP yoga right after watching it!!

    A Story For All

    When Jake needed help "WE" were there for him and made him cry tears of joy, because US fans "give a damn" about THREE legends of wrestling. At the helm Diamomnd Dallas Page yes he is thee rarest Diamond YOU will ever find, to help Jake battle his demons and overcome the odds along side Scott Hall who was drinking himself blind together all three went on a journey to HELL & back.

    Look At Jake now a comedy tour, a new lease of life living to win the same goes to Scott Hall. I have been a wrestling fan since 1989/1990 This is Diamond Dallas Page giving back to the two people who got him into wrestling and this is how he re-pays them by paying ti forward being there when they needed help the most.

    With us fan donating what we could afford makes me smile from ear to ear because they truly deserve it.

    Jake now has a comedy tour, Scott is doing appearances.

    BOTH are now Hall Of Famers Diamond Dallas Page should get inducted by both of them DDP's accolades alone is a Hall Of Fame Worthy career.

    It was a hard road for both Scott & Jake in this movie you will see their pain, their heartache, the ups and downs and all in between.

    I wanna thank all of you including myself who bought the DVD via Indiegogo you are a million to one. So are you DDP, Jake & Scott if you ain't down with that i got two words for ya.

    Wonderful Tale of Redemption

    As a long time pro wrestling fan first exposed to Jake the Snake Roberts over 35 years ago, I have been a fan of his work from the Mid- South days all the way to the genesis of Austin 3:16 and beyond. Knowing how sad the endings of most pro-wrestlers' stories end, I was elated to find out that he decided to let DDP help him out at the Accountability Crib. As a DDPYoga user I can tell you first hand that just letting the DVD sit on the shelf does NOT help you. Likewise, Jake had to do the work and be honest with himself and come face to face with his demons before he could find any real healing. The documentary staff did a wonderful job in balancing the good and the bad without being exploitative.

    Great documentary but....

    To me Jake Roberts is the most notorious liar i have ever seen. I never believed a word that came out of this guys mouth. DDP has the patience of a saint.
