Wrestling Legend Reportedly Undergoes Heart Surgery Due To Coronavirus Complications

That’s never good to hear. Wrestlers may play larger than life characters on television but they are still humans like all of us. That means they are going to have their good and bad days, with some of those days being a bit more serious than others. Occasionally this can mean a health issue, which was the case this week with a wrestling legend. Thankfully though, things seem to have gotten better.

Alfonzo Lizarraga of The Gladiatores is reporting that Konnan has undergone heart surgery due to complications from the Coronavirus. While the situation continues to change, Konnan was considered stable as of Wednesday afternoon. There is no word on when the surgery took place or when Konnan will be released from the hospital. Konnan has been part of several promotions throughout America and mexico, most notably in WCW, Impact Wrestling and AAA.

Konnan fue sometido a una cirugía de corazón por secuelas de Covid, aún que la situación fue y sigue siendo delicada todo indica que al momento está estable.

Opinion: As is always the case with anything involving the Coronavirus or anything medical related, the most important thing is someone’s health. Hopefully Konnan is able to get back to full health sooner rather than later, as he is able to do several things for a bunch of promotions. There is a reason that you see his name popping up every so often in one promotion after another and it will be great to see him back at what he does best.

What do you think of Konnan? Where did he do his best work? Let us know in the comments below.
