Vader appears to be losing the match but his son’s encouraging words of love for his dad whether he wins or loses inspires him to get his second wind and Vaderbomb Jake for the 3 count and title shot against Shawn Michaels. The episode comes to a close as they safely dance (Safely Dance, not Safety Dance) in the middle of the WWF ring once they know Jerry Lawler is nowhere near the building. In hindsight, it just seemed silly to see Muhammad Ali land multiple unblocked punches to the head of a non-boxer and have that person not fall unconscious, because MUHAMMAD ALI. 8.)

But that's a sore subject around these parts.
Oddly enough, Roberts' sister, who wrestled under the name Rockin' Robin, became the only member of the family to ever hold a title in WWE (then WWF), as its women's champion from 1988 to 1990. Probably hangs out on the, And f or the record, I don’t understand why 16 is such a special age for girls. Well, then explain how he was on the show, no joke, THREE TIMES! Big Van “The Man They Call” Vader was one of the best monster heels in WCW and the WWF. I’ll bet he’s a member of the IWC. You wouldn’t think that Vader would be a guy sitcom producers would flock to for a guest appearance. Struggling with Turner's poetry class, Cory and Frankie make an agreement: Frankie will help Cory with poetry if Cory and Shawn help Frankie get the love of his father.

But jobbers were often anonymous and interchangeable, so that alone was not a red flag.

His son Frankie Jr. reveals himself to be a poetry enthusiast, which doesn’t meet with the approval of his wrestler dad and little brother. I remember his awesome encounters with the likes of Sting and Ric Flair and like many, thought there was absolutely no doubt Vader would rule the business for years to come. Boy Meets World: Season 4: Boy Meets ... Jake "the Snake" Roberts as himself, Brother Love as himself, Earl Hebner as himself, ... Not until Vader begins to falter in his match does Cory spend too much time at the ring, leaving Topanga alone for the dance she was so excited about. The second episode with Vader was a shorter cameo where Cory and Shawn befriend his son Frankie Jr out of fear but learn that despite being a big intimidating mountain of a boy, Frankie Jr is a sensitive soul and Vader busting into Cory’s kitchen like the Kool Aid Man (sadly without bellowing “OH YEAH!”) and cutting a promo is perfectly acceptable behavior in this TV show’s universe. It works so well that Frankie Jr. asks Cory and Shawn to accompany him to Vader’s WWF match against Jake the Snake at the Spectrum so he could be in his dad’s corner and advise him with the strategy Cory gives him. It's been a long, hard road for Jake "The Snake" Roberts, but one of pro wrestling's all-time greatest heels will be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame this weekend in New Orleans, prior to WrestleMania XXX. 7.)
