Some Excellent Wrestling News For A Change (Health Related)

Some good news for a change. Things have been a little bit rough for a lot of people for a long time now, including in the wrestling business. The Coronavirus pandemic has completely changed the injury and a lot of people have been out of work because of it. As a result, it would be nice to hear something good for once and that is the case in a big way this weekend.

Former Impact Wrestling announcer Don West has announced that his brain cancer is in remission. In June of this year, West announced that he had been diagnosed with brain lymphoma. Since then, he has undergone chemotherapy and radiation treatments and is now able to return to his job in radio. West served as a play by play announcer for Impact Wrestling from 2002-2012.

I want to give everyone an update
After 8 weeks of chemotherapy and 13 treatments of radiation my cancer is now in remission
Thank you for everyone’s prayers because they truly worked
I look forward to getting back on the radio doing what I love

West had some great moments in Impact Wrestling. Check out some of his time with the company:

TNA: Don West Goes Off On Mike Tenay

Don West's ShopTNA Brown Bag Special

Mike Tenay and Don West Hype TNA Wrestling's Two Year Anniversary Show

Opinion: It’s just nice to hear something good for a change. West is one of the main voices associated with the early days of Impact Wrestling and it is great to hear that he is in better shape. He was in a pretty serious spot there for a bit and now it seems that things have gotten a lot better in a hurry. Hopefully they stay that way but for now, it is awesome to hear something like this.
