Former WWE star Killswitch, 38, collapses and rushed to hospital after fiancee found him on the floor
FORMER WWE star Killswitch was rushed to hospital after suffering a health scare.
The wrestler collapsed in his home and was found by his fiancee.
He was taken to hospital where tests discovered his blood oxygen level was below 80 per cent, and he has pneumonia in both lungs.
AEW star Killswitch, who is also known as Luchosaurus, has been on oxygen ever since and was reportedly just days away from permanent lung damage.
His recovery is expected to take at least a month and it is unclear when he will be able to return to the ring.
British YouTuber and wrestler Simon Miller wished him well, saying: “Man, all the best to Luchasaurus.
“Always such a good dude (dinosaur) when I’ve run him into him. Sending him positive thoughts and a swift recovery.”
While former AEW teammate Marko Stunt wrote: “Whatever
@luchasaurus has going on in his head right now, idk.
“But I’ll never forget the times he stuck his neck out for me, both in and outside the ring. Genuinely cared for and protected me.”
Killswitch, real name Austin Matelson, has featured in just eight matches this year.
