What made Steve Austin cry?, Heath Slater tweets out cryptic message

Jake Roberts thanked his good friend DDP for the support he received

- WWE Hall Of Famer Jake Roberts and filmaker Steve Yu spoke with MyAJC.com to advertise his new documentary "Resurrection of Jake the Snake”. The documentary captures the wrestler’s real-life battles with drug and alcohol addiction and the road to sobriety. The Atlanta man has been sober for three years after decades of struggle.The credit for his turnaround goes in part to his film co-star, friend and fellow former grappler “Diamond” Dallas Page.

Yu stated that Steve Austin was in tears after watching the video. In 2012, Page moved Roberts into his Atlanta home and for over two years had him on an exercise and diet routine, made sure he attended Alcoholics Anonymous meetings and helped him fight the temptation to drink or do drugs. Roberts spoke about living with DDP and also pointed out how he was once subsequently competent to have a just right dream once more as a result of the support he obtained from DDP:

“I woke up one day after about 10 months of working with Dallas and I said, ‘Dude, thank you.’ And he said, ‘For what?’ and I said, ‘I had a good dream last night.’ I hadn’t had a good dream in years. You get into a hole where there is no happy.”

- It is pretty safe to say that there are a large number of superstars on the WWE roster that are being under utilised. In the case of Heath Slater, the term under utilised doesn't quite seem enough for some members of the WWE Universe to accept. Slater was a member of the Nexus when he arrived in the WWE and it could be argued that to this day, that has been his biggest contribution to the company.

Of course, he was also the leader of 3MB until his fellow band mates were released from their contracts and he then struggled to find a place. He is mostly utilised as a side character these days in gimmick spots where he normally plays the role of the comedic character. Well, it is unclear if his current lack of chances has finally gotten to the superstar or if he is simply casting an early prediction of what could be to come.

In quite a cryptic tweet, Slater has sent quite a confusing message to his fans as he poses in a very dark picture with a strange caption. The big question is, is Slater posting a very strange message about a new gimmick or is he reflecting on his WWE career with regret?. Here is what he tweeted:
