Former WCW wrestler Brian Knobbs was rushed to the hospital on Tuesday night to undergo an emergency blood transfusion due to critically low blood levels.
On Knobbs’ Facebook page, an update was given on the former WCW Tag Team and Hardcore Champion. The post states.
“Hey everyone, Brian was rushed to the hospital from the rehab center due to critically low blood levels. He had to undergo an emergency blood transfusion and is really struggling right now. Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.”
A GoFundMe has been created to help Knobbs, who has been struggling financially following the devastating effects of Hurricane Milton.
A life-threatening foot infection has also stopped Knobbs from making wrestling appearances, including having to cancel an appearance on the Jericho Cruise.
Knobbs is best known for his role as part of The Nasty Boys with Jerry Saggs. The pair are former WWF World Tag Team Champions.
