Bad Health Update On Former WWE Superstar Virgil
source: wwe.com

He has not made much good news of late, and unfortunately there is a bad health update on former WWE Superstar Virgil.

For people who were tuned in to 1980’s WWE wrestling, you would have seen Virgil working with (and against) the Million Dollar Man, Ted DiBiase.

DiBiase has had some interesting happenings of his own in his post-WWE career.

But this is all about Virgil. Or, if you remember his very brief time with WCW, you might see him as Vince.

Bad Health Update On Former WWE Superstar Virgil

The former Million Dollar Champion has had a lot of bad luck of late.

And, now we add to that with a bad health update for the former WWE Superstar.

Another former talent, Tatanka, provided an update on the man who was often caught on Saturday morning Superstars.

Sadly, it is not good.

Per Tatanka, he has been told that Virgil recently suffered a series of strokes.

While not fatal, the word is not good.

Tatanka has used his social media platforms to ask fans to pray for the retired wrestler.

With significant health concerns…and given the season we are in, on the Road to WrestleMania, you can’t help but wonder if Virgil could get a sympathetic Hall of Fame consideration.

Of course, the man for whom he served as a valet does not believe Virgil deserves or warrants an induction.

As much as it would be a nice story perhaps, this is an area I have to agree with DiBiase.

Virgil had a nice run as a valet and briefly an in-ring performer, but it was just that. Nice.

He worked ringside during an era where we saw such standouts as Sherri, Miss Elizabeth, Jim Cornette and Brother Love and even Slick.

While fans may appreciate his work and hope for the best, he was not a Hall worthy character.

Still, we wish him nothing but the best.
