WWE Hall of Famer Jake “The Snake” Roberts took to an episode of his Snake Pit podcast, where he talked about a number of topics including the worst injury of his career.

Roberts said, “Oh, I split my nut sack. Believe it or not, getting into the ring. I was outside the ring. I had the rope, and I was leaning back, and I pulled myself up and punched the guy. And I punched the guy, he took a bump backward, and I went to get into the ring, and my foot slipped off, and I nutted myself. And it split my nut sack a little bit… No stitches.”

On how he treats such an injury:

“You leave that motherf**ker alone, probably. I learned a lesson there.”

On who he wishes he could have wrestled:

“Oh, there’s so, so many that I wish I’d worked with. Man, are you kidding? I’d like to work with Randy Orton. I would have liked to have worked with Steve Austin some more. Then I would have liked to work with Hogan.”
