WWE Hall of Famer Diamond Dallas Page is recovering in the hospital after suffering from atrial fibrillation during a recent workout. Page shared the news, alongside a video of himself recovering and stretching in his hospital bed, on X (formerly Twitter) on Wednesday. Page said he posted “minutes after waking up from a successful cardioversion,” or a procedure to get his abnormal heartbeat back to normal.

“Last week, I went into AFib,” Dallas explained. “I normally wear a heart monitor when training, but for some reason didn’t this day. I pushed myself too hard, felt ‘off’, dizzy, and heart racing… and well, here we are… This is my 2nd time with AFib (irregular heartbeats) in the past 3 years. I’ll have a cardio ablation next month and should be good to go.”

According to the Cleveland Clinic, cardiac ablation is a minimally invasive procedure using heat, cold, or short bursts of energy to create scars to stop the electrical impulses that cause irregular heart rhythms. 

Page said that he promised his wife he would never forget his heart monitor or his Apple watch while working out again. He told followers if they are over 50 years old or have enlarged hearts that they should also wear heart monitors. He threw in a mention to his DDP Yoga account. In the video, he joked he could “always do DDP Yoga stretches” and stretched his leg into the air while mentioning his hamstrings were tight from working out, all while attached to beeping monitors with IVs in his arm.

Minutes after waking up from a successful cardioversion, I’m back stretching. My wife, @PaygeMcMahon is like… ‘can you just rest for 24-hours?’ 🤪

The 69 year old’s last appearance in the ring was in a six-match tag team match alongside Dustin Rhodes and QT Marshall on a January 2020 episode of “AEW Dynamite.” He appeared at the WWE Hall of Fame ceremony in April to inducted Lex Luger.

WWE Hall of Famer Kevin Nash has never shied away from voicing his opinions on politics, despite the way his audience might or might not feel about the figures he criticizes. However, Nash recently pointed out how the current international tariff situation between the United States and other countries has impacted pro wrestling fans in ways they might not realize.

According to Nash during an episode of his “Kliq This” podcast, someone he knows in the wrestling collectible action figure industry claims that tariffs have been hitting that aspect of the industry hard. 

“It was like, it cost him, the manufacturing was 30% from the figures that he’s done,” the veteran claimed, adding that the person he spoke to has manufactured several notable figures for wrestlers like Randy Savage. “He told me that it was like unbelievable, the amount that he’s having to pay in tariffs.”

Nash hasn’t only addressed the real-world implications of politics on his podcast before, and once expressed who in the wrestling industry would make a great United States President. Naturally, the veteran went with his long-time friend, Paul Levesque, explaining that the WWE CCO is level-headed and has several leadership qualities in the industry that would translate perfectly into politics. Interestingly, Levesque recently made an appearance alongside sitting US President Donald Trump at a White House event where the President signed an executive order focused on expanding his council on sports, focusing on fitness and nutrition, as well as reviving the Presidential Fitness Test in public schools.

Whether you want to call him Killswitch or Luchasaurus, the former TNT Champion is back in AEW, though he and Kip Sabian were unable to pick up a victory over Adam Copeland and Christian Cage this past Sunday at Forbidden Door. Not only did the duo lose, but there was a bit of tension between the duo, making some wonder if the team wasn’t long for this world, and if Luchasaurus could find himself back with a certain former tag team partner in Jack Perry, who some speculated was the mysterious doctor shown in Luchasaurus’ return vignette.

During a Fightful Select Q&A, Sean Ross Sapp threw some gasoline on that fire, revealing that someone close to Perry had revealed a month ago that “the wheels would be moving” regarding Perry’s return to AEW. An AEW source neither confirmed nor denied that Perry was featured in the Luchasaurus video when asked.

Having known each other since they began wrestling training years ago, Perry and Luchasaurus formed the stable Jurassic Express, alongside Marko Stunt, back when AEW first formed in 2019. The duo eventually went on to win the AEW World Tag Team Championships in early 2022, though they disbanded after Luchasaurus betrayed Perry for Christian later that September. Perry would later get revenge on his former partner, defeating him in a steel cage match at AEW Full Gear.

This latest bit of information comes at a time when multiple hints have emerged that Perry could be making his return to AEW for the first time since dropping the TNT Title to Daniel Garcia last fall. On Monday, the Young Bucks released a short video on their Being the Elite channel where Matt Jackson received a face-time call from Perry, only for Jackson to ignore the call.

Forbidden Door weekend was likely a little more eventful for AEW’s Queen Aminata than she originally hoped. One day before the event, Aminata’s backpack containing her passport and other possessions was stolen, essentially stranding her in England while the rest of AEW personnel traveled back to the United States. Aminata has remained stranded in the country since then, though fortunately not for that much longer.

Earlier on Wednesday, Aminata posted numerous photos on her Instagram Story, including one showing her holding out an emergency United States passport. Taking to X shortly after, Aminata revealed that the emergency passport would allow her to return to the United States tomorrow, ending her unexpected adventure overseas.

The extra day in the UK will mean Aminata won’t be on hand for tonight’s edition of “AEW Dynamite,” which kicks off the promotion’s several week residency in the 2300 Arena, aka the ECW Arena, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. However, it would mean Aminata would be available for Saturday’s episode of “AEW Collision,” or perhaps even Ring of Honor Death Before Dishonor, which is set to take place this Friday.

Separate from her travel issues, Aminata’s Forbidden Door trip was a bit of a mixed bag, as she, Harley Cameron, Willow Nightingale and Kris Statlander came up short against Megan Bayne and the Triangle of Madness on Zero Hour. Aminata wasn’t involved in the decision, as she and Thekla brawled to the back; the two later brawled back to the entrance way during the show, where Thekla’s Triangle of Madness teammates Skye Blue and Julia Hart attacked Aminata before a returning Jamie Hayter made the save.

Given McMahon’s ongoing situation, questions have been asked regarding talents that did attend. Several sources weren’t surprised to see that, with one WWE wrestler noting many in the promotion still feel they owe McMahon, while another believes talents are waiting to see how the Grant lawsuit turns out before severing ties. In the case of Lawler, a source in contact with him said the former WWE announcer was essentially “ride or die” with McMahon at this stage, and would continue to be so regardless of the accusations.

That was not the case for everyone, as at least one wrestler admitted to feeling morally conflicted about attending, though they didn’t elaborate on why they decided to do so. While some wrestlers didn’t attend due to the overseas tour, others noted the hypocrisy of the situation, as most believed that, had they been accused as McMahon has, they would’ve been fired and blacklisted.

As for McMahon’s current state, one attendee revealed that the former WWE Chairman was looking very much his age, describing McMahon as far more frail and moving slower, a stark contrast to his time in WWE. While talk of McMahon resurfacing in WWE has grown louder since Brock Lesnar’s return, WWE sources say there are no talks of McMahon returning, and that those atop WWE have “no desire” to bring McMahon back at this time. As a result, McMahon’s party with several WWE names in attendance may be the closest McMahon will get to a WWE reunion.
