Jake Roberts Talks Being Cocaine Free

Jake Roberts Talks Being Cocaine Free

Posted: Oct 12th 2013 By: CMBurnham

DDP Yoga Intern and Independent Pro Wrestler and Promoter Dylan Frymer joined the VOC Wrestling Nation, opening up about his relationship with Jake Roberts, how Dallas Page has changed his life, and about living in a house with wrestling legends.

You can listen to the entire interview at http://vocnation.com.

Here is a sample of what the up and coming star had to say:

On the progress of Jake Roberts: ?I want to make it clear that Jake is a year clean off of cocaine. However, he recently had a problem with alcohol that we documented on YouTube. Since then, I?ve been going on the road with Jake as an accountability partner. I keep him accountable to himself. We?re a tag team on addiction. Food is my addiction, and (Jake and I) help each other.?

On getting involved with DDP Yoga: ?In 2008 I was going to meet DDP at a convention in NJ. I was 290 lbs at the time, and I was one of the first people to sign up for the YRG program (the former name of DDP Yoga, ?Yoga for Regular Guys?) My mom sent an email to Dallas and he actually responded back to me personally. I was one of the first 10 people to do YRG and I lost 110lbs.?

On moving to DDP?s Accountability Crib: ?I fell off the wagon after a bout with depression and gained most of the weight back. Depression is real. I was originally approached to come and live here with Jake, but I was in a funk (and said no). Then I saw that Scott Hall moved in and it really impacted my life; I reached out to DDP on facebook and let him know that Scott Hall inspired me to (overcome depression) and that I lost 20lbs. DDP called me and asked me to move into the Accountability Crib and work with him as an intern, and the rest is history.?
