That’s some good news. You never know when you might see a wrestler in the ring for the last time. They might leave a promotion for a variety of reasons, but even worse, they might have some sort of a medical situation that takes them out of the ring before they are ready. That is something that can happen to anyone and such a situation might have taken place on Friday.
On Friday night, Scott Steiner collapsed at an Impact Wrestling taping and was rushed to the hospital. It was not clear what had happened but something was obviously very wrong. The question became what would happen next and while we did get an update on his condition Friday night/Saturday morning, his future was not clear. We now have an idea of what is next for Steiner.
On Saturday, both Steiner’s wife and Tommy Dreamer sent out updates on Twitter, saying that Steiner was expected to make a complete recovery. Also, according to PWInsider.com, Steiner was in stable condition on Saturday and was undergoing a heart procedure later in the day. There is no word on when Steiner could be released from the hospital or when he might be able to get back in the ring again.

Steiner has had one of the most interesting careers ever. Check out some of his most famous promos:
Opinion: What else can you say here other than hoping that Steiner gets better? Whether you are a fan of his or not, there is no reason to wish him any harm. Thankfully he was able to get medical treatment immediately and was taken to the hospital where he could be taken care of properly. Hopefully things get a lot better in a hurry as Steiner has lots more insanity to offer the wrestling world.
