At the age of 57, Knobbs is a wrestling veteran. Doctors are currently conducting several tests to figure out exactly what is wrong with the former WWE superstar.

The issue seems to be in his stomach. A GoFundMe has been organized for Brian to help with hospital and household bills that keep climbing.

Knobbs was recently rushed to the emergency via ambulance. His doctors are quite concerned, and it sounds like he could be in the hospital for a couple of months, at the very least.

Brian Knobbs Has More Than Stomach Issues

Along with his stomach problems, Brian’s good knee requires surgery. This is needed to help him walk again.

Like many, the pandemic struck Knobbs hard. He recently started to travel for work again, but increased pain caused him to stop.

On top of all this, he’s lost some of his closest friends in the business in recent years. His health issues, plus this has Knobbs struggling with mental health, too.

The Nasty Boys were tag champs in many promotions, including WCW and WWE. They’ve said before that getting a WWE Hall of Fame induction would be the “icing” on their career cake.
