Afa the Wild Samoan Suffers Serious Injury Following Fall Incident

WWE Hall of Famer Afa Anoa’i, renowned for his contributions as one-half of the legendary Wild Samoans tag team, has faced a series of health challenges in recent times, casting a shadow over his well-being.

Earlier this year, Afa grappled with pneumonia, a battle that was compounded by the onset of a mild heart attack upon his hospitalization. His health journey took a further downturn when he experienced a second small heart attack during his stay, adding to the already daunting ordeal. Despite these setbacks, Afa persevered and was discharged in January.

However, just as Afa seemed to be on the path to recovery, another setback occurred. According to a Facebook post by Afa Jr., it was revealed that Afa had fallen, resulting in fractures to his back in two places. The severity of the injury necessitated his transfer to a different hospital for specialized treatment, amplifying concerns for his well-being.

“Update: My father fell and fractured his back in 2 places. He is currently being transferred into a different hospital. Continued prayers are requested as well as privacy during these stressful times. The family will post updates as they come.”
