Reigns/cancer

By Scott Keith on 24 October 2018

Is this Roman Reigns thing a first? I mean has an active wrestler in a major promotion in the last 30-40 years ever had to take a leave of absence because of cancer? Not necessarily forfeiting a title out of it or even announcing it on TV, just in general has this ever happened before?

First time I can recall. Unless you count Matt Capotelli.
