The brewing personal feud between 2014 WWE Hall of Fame inductee Ultimate Warrior and fellow legend Jake the Snake Roberts has come to a quick end.
After Roberts had spoken critically of the Warrior’s pending induction into the Hall of Fame, and Warrior had responded by calling Roberts a “hypocrite” born-again Christian, Roberts offered his apology for the comments that ignited the brief controversy.
From Roberts on Twitter:
“My guys showed me Warrior’s tweets. I was trying to be entertaining with the radio show and took things too far, like I do too often. I have no business inferring anything negative about him. I apologize. He deserves the HOF and respect for what he accomplished in the business. But let me be clear. There is no hypocrisy here. I am not preaching anything. I am sharing my recovery path to show others what is possible. So no pity, bathrooms stalls or groveling. I am doing great. I am an addict and alcoholic working every single day to repair and make the best out of the life I have left. I make mistakes, like that comment, but my recovery has been amazing. Jim does not know this Jake. Without realizing or intending to, I fired the first shot and will take Jim’s response without any negativity towards him. I apologize and am putting behind me.”
