Jake Roberts is largely considered to be one of the greatest talkers in WWE history, but Roberts' life both inside and outside of the ring has been handed a number of setbacks and body blows over the years, to the point where Roberts revealed publicly that he had been diagnosed with cancer back in 2014.

The WWE Hall of Famer underwent surgery to remove the tumor from behind his knee and after a few months of recovery, he once again declared that he was cancer free.

Roberts has had a number of struggles with his health over the years, but in recent times he has been able to manage this much easier and even popped up on WWE TV a few years ago to show the WWE Universe that he still knows how to step up if the company ever calls upon him.
