Former WWE and WCW star “Wildman” Marc Mero recently posted the following statement on his Facebook account:

“This morning Darlene and I will be boarding a plane to travel to the Cleveland Clinic in Cleveland, Ohio. After seeing 3 heart specialists including visiting the Emory Heart & Vascular Center in Atlanta. I have been told I need heart surgery. I am blessed that the top surgeon in the US Lars Svensson, MD, PhD – Cleveland Clinic will be doing the surgery. I will be going through tests from 7am until 3pm tomorrow to determine when the surgery will take place.

I have an enormous Faith in God. I wake up every day with passion and purpose and realize there are so many people just trying to survive. I am so thankful!! I have a lot of people praying for me, family, friends & church. Just a bump in the road! We serve a mighty Big God. Looking forward to new results! God is in control. “I Believe!”

Mero, who also competed under the ring name ‘Johnny B. Badd,’ is a former WWE Intercontinental Champion and WCW Television Champion.

He’s made appearances in schools and community colleges over the past several years, lecturing students on the dangers of drug abuse.
