Former WWE Star Steve Richards Provides Health Update Following Spinal Infection Battle

Former WWE and ECW wrestler Stevie Richards recently gave an update on his health during an appearance on the Wrestling Shoot Interviews program. Richards talked about his battle against a spinal infection that left him in a wheelchair. He explained that he had been experiencing back pain for months and had tried to find a solution to keep going. However, in January, he had one of his best workouts ever, and after he got home, he was completely stuck in his chair. His back had locked out, and he couldn’t put pressure on his legs because of the pain. His wife helped him get into a walker, and they went to Mayo Clinic for tests. Richards was admitted to the hospital, and they did a spine biopsy that was painful due to the infection. Richards’ full interview can be found on prowrestlingwars.com.
