Famous WWF (or WWE these days) wrestler who fought with a 10ft long python, which other wrestlers pumped up on steroids for some reason found scary.

Where are they now?

After leaving WWF the Snake man himself struggled with addictions to various drugs and booze, and was featured in the fly on the wall wrestling documentary Beyond the Mat.

Things for him in recent years have not improved. Last year my brother, while at University in Portsmouth in England, received a leaflet through his letter box from Jake the Snake offering wrestling lessons in a local town hall.

Surely no wrestler has fallen as low as this?
