This is what changed Jake and Scott initially around. They went back to the foods they used to eat, but not as much. Scott said I ruined him by showing him how f--ked up his food is, so he wouldn't eat until he knows it's the wrong s--t. The whole thing is being aware. There's certain s--t, I won't eat anymore because I know it's going to attack my body. The food will keep you depressed because you eat it, feel like s--t, and wonder why you ate it. The food was the beginning and then the workout. Through all this came the mindset, which is about turning your life around. Now, Jake had that scare with cancer and he's cool now, but he's more aware because he wants to live and before he wanted to die. People give up hope and with DDP YOGA, I give them hope. Hope is a huge, four letter word. If you buy the DDP YOGA program and put the work in, people would never believe how easy they can reach me. If you put the work in, I call you up. Who the f--k does that!?
Wrestling INC: It's amazing what DDP YOGA has done. I wanted to ask you about the YouTube clip where Jake Roberts told you he wasn't in the Royal Rumble, but then dropped the news he was getting inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame. How shortly after that did you find out about Scott Hall's induction? Was it the same time?
DDP: Once I found out about Jake, Triple H queued me in that they were both going in. I couldn't tell anybody and I didn't even tell Scott I knew. Scott told me, but I already knew. I wanted it to be his moment and not mine. It was crazy for both of them to be getting inducted on my birthday.
Wrestling INC: How much of the birthday bash [in New Orleans the night before the WWE Hall of Fame] did you know was happening?
DDP: I thought how they promoted it was wrong for themselves. I didn't even know I was involved until the end. I like people to be aware of what I'm doing. I don't need people to tell me what I'm doing. I don't need those accolades. It's actually one of the few things I feel uncomfortable about. I know what I've done in my life and I know what crazy ups and downs I've gone through. Even when I won the world title, as good as it was, there something missing for me. I didn't want all that attention. Attention is not that big of a deal. Those guys wanted to say thank you. The fact that the Big Show, Ric Flair, and my boy RVD showed up was awesome. Me and RVD became good buds after wrestling. We talk all the time now. He's a very positive cat. We're just both well minded. I love that he says what he feels all the time too.
Wrestling INC: You had mentioned Jake Robert's almost being cancer free after one more surgery. Has he scheduled that last surgery or is he still waiting on that?
DDP: I'm not really sure, but he hasn't had it yet. It'll come up in the next week or so. The surgery they did is called Mohr. They cut a circle out of you about an inch and a half in diameter and it goes down to an inch deep. It's like some Skeletor s--t, so it's painful. It was on Jake's leg and he had trouble doing the DDP YOGA workouts. We had to really cut s--t back for him.
Wrestling INC: Is your documentary "The Resurrection of Jake the Snake Roberts" done? Is there more to add?
DDP: We've been adding at a fevers pitch. I just hired two more guys to piece together all our footage. Our goal isn't just to make a documentary. Our lofty goal coming in was to be Oscar nominated. We don't expect to win, but that's a goal. We want it done by August and are hoping to bring it to Sundance and Tribeca. Our goal is to have the documentary premiere at WrestleMania. I've talked to the WWE about this and they want to see it when it's done. They don't know if they want to get involved, but I don't need them to get involved. I would love to have them involved. It's a positive story about our business and it goes on to talk about a man and his addictions. It's a journey of two buddies who came along differently, but helped each other throughout it. Of course, Scott will be in it. You'll see Scott coming from being in a damn wheelchair.
