This happens far too often. Wrestling is a weird business, as the wrestlers have little in the way of a guarantee. They will often bounce from one promotion to the other and pick up work where they can. In addition, they have nothing in the way of benefits and that can create a problem after their careers are over. As sad as it is, that is the case again for another former star.
Former WWE star Mo, of Men On A Mission fame, has announced that he is undergoing health issues and is starting a GoFundMe to help pay for medical expenses. Mo’s issues stem from contracting the Coronavirus while being immunocompromised due to a previous kidney transplant. This resulted in a three week stint in the ICW as well as being on an oxygen machine since his release. Mo also had complications due to a hernia and is being fed through a feeding tube due to an emergency surgery. The fund is seeking to raise $50,000 and has reached just over $4,000 so far.
Opinion: This is one of those things that you see happen and unfortunately it leaves wrestlers asking fans to help. It is quite the shame that things like this keep coming up but there isn’t much that can be done about it either. Hopefully Mo gets the help that he needs, because you shouldn’t have your life wrecked due to your health going badly, especially when it is something that wasn’t your fault.
What did you think of Men On A Mission? How would Mo have done on his own? Let us know in the comments below.
