Best wishes to Afa Anoaʻi.
Afa, 81, has been battling health issues in recent months. The WWE Hall of Famer was previously discharged from the hospital after he had two heart attacks.
In a post on Facebook, WXW Wrestling announced that Afa had a successful TAVR procedure to replace his aortic valve, and he was discharged from the hospital. The post noted that Afa had more rehab to do, but he was still fighting.
The post is as follows:
“On Thursday, our beloved patriarch Afa the Wild Samoan had a successful TAVR procedure to replace his aortic valve. Yesterday afternoon he was discharged from the hospital! We’re all so grateful that this final hurdle has been passed! Now he has more back rehabilitation to do, but our Pops kicked out again and is one of the strongest human beings in the world! Thank you all for your prayers and concern!”
WrestleZone wishes Afa well in his recovery, and we will provide more information as it becomes available.
