Tuesday, September 16th, 2008 * 2:33AM
Earlier this evening, Millennium Wrestling Federation officials met and have decided to remove Jake "The Snake" Roberts from SOUL SURVIVOR V November 15th. MWF Chairman Neil Manolian issued the following statement:
"An emergency meeting of the MWF Board of Directors along with MWF President John Cena Sr. and Commissioner Brad Von Johnson took place this evening where it was decided to remove Jake 'The Snake' Roberts from SOUL SURVIVOR V. This past weekend, videos surfaced of Mr. Roberts suffering from his on-going personal demons. We unanimously decided to remove Jake Roberts from this event. We will not run the risk of Jake Roberts potentially ruining an event seven years in the making with potentially disruptive in the ring, at our fanfest and/or during the VIP Question & Answer session. We sincerely apologize to fans looking forward to seeing Jake Roberts November 15th but we strongly feel that Jake Roberts appearing is a risk not worth taking. MWF officials are working on replacing Jake as we speak with more surprises coming on the September MWF Xtra: The John Cena Sr. Show later this month."
