End update.

Richard Reacts: Raj is a credible source when it comes to Jake Roberts news as I know he's got a connection to Diamond Dallas Page and has interviewed him on a number of occasions. So far, I haven't heard anything to update on this but it certainly doesn't sound good.

After getting sober and being inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame this year, Roberts had a cancer scar that required surgery. In July, he noted that he was cancer free.
