— Bobby Heenan is reportedly in very poor health at a Florida hospital.
Lanny Poffo, brother of Randy Savage, said on the Who’s Slamming Who podcast this week that he heard from a friend that the WWE Hall of Famer “might be on his last legs.”
The wrestler formerly known as The Genius said Heenan has been “in and out of a coma” in a Tampa area hospital and is “not aware of anything.”
Heenan has been in poor health in recent years due to surgery on his throat and reconstructive jaw surgery.
This is obviously terrible news. We wish Bobby a quick and full recovery.
