- Complete Monster: Jake Roberts' original gimmick.
- Magnificent Bastard: At the time, he was disqualified from being a Magnificent Bastard due to being a Complete Monster. However, the Moral Event Horizon of what keeps a heel from being cool has shifted much further back by now (compare Jake getting furious heat for slapping Elizabeth to the Dudleys getting over for powerbombing women through tables), and nowadays he comes across as a classic Magnificent Bastard.
- Narm: At the Heroes Of Wrestling event, Jake cut a drunken, nonsensical promo about gambling, which, in his alcohol induced state, probably seemed to make perfect sense.
