Due to my skin cancer care totaling 22 radiation treatments starting Monday, I will hopefully return to the announce desk on December 29 in Jacksonville.
@TonyKhan
supports me on this strategy which has been a blessing.
My thanks for all your support. 🙏🤠
Big day...it’s the final day of my contract with
@WWE
after 26 years.
A WWE camera crew arriving at my home today to record for an
@undertaker
documentary.
I’m honored to be a part of it. Great way to exit.
On my way to Orlando for tonight’s
@AEW
Dynamite.
Skin cancer confirmed. Waiting on radiologist study to determine best treatment. Likely radiation.
Feeling great and ready to attack.
Thanks for the support from so many. 🙏🤠
So sad today to hear of the sudden passing of my dear friend
@TheGeneOkerlund
I just saw Mean Gene in North Carolina at WrestleCade.
It’s so true that our tomorrow’s are never guaranteed.
Say hello to Jan, Mean Gene. 🙏
I hope that if you watched
#DoubleorNothing
from
@AEWrestling
that you enjoyed it.
Thanks for giving our new brand a try.
We know that we have to earn your business.
And we will...🤠
So sad to hear of the passing of my friend, the greatest ring announcer in the biz, Howard Finkel, at the age of 69.
The Hall of Famer is now ring announcing in Heaven.
#RIPFink
No one was more loyal or loved pro wrestling more than The Fink. 🙏
My late wife Jan died four years ago today.
Still can’t believe that she’s gone but we had 25+ amazing years together for which I’m eternally thankful.
She would have loved my gig at
@AEW
and living on the beach.
Jan made me a better man. 🙏🤠
I spoke very briefly with
@JerryLawler
tonight.
He’s obviously weak but I could understand his affected speech.
Jerry’s prognosis is positive but he needs all our thoughts and prayers.

Skin Cancer Treatment
#16
completed this morning.
Radiation burns are a painful part of this process.
I’m told to prepare for some tough times over the next few days.
Appreciate all your support. 🙏🤠
Please wear a mask in public at all times.
Don’t be stubborn and defiant.
This is NOT a political matter.
Be smart and increase your chances of avoiding
#coronavirus
🙏🤠
Like many of your fellow professional politicians, this statement is illadvised and ignorant.
Don’t lump my profession into yours.
Your ‘profession’ has become embarrassing on both sides of your beloved aisle.
Public Servants? That’s laughable.
My two granddaughters lost their other grandpa Easter Sunday due to this demon like virus.
It can happen to any of us folks.
Stay home everybody....please. 🙏

I’m heartbroken to hear of the sudden passing of my 30+ year friend, Jim Neidhart.
We met in the 80’s when Bill Watts booked ‘The Anvil’ in Mid South & Jim even coached Cowboy’s son Micah on how to shot put.
We lost a damn, good man.

This morning norman judge Steven Stice felt compelled to dismiss vehicular homicide charge against the 17 year old in my wife Jan’s death. The state objected to no avail.
The driver never even lost his drivers license.
Sad world in which we live, folks.
Just heard of the passing this morning if the great, Pat Patterson.
True legend of the pro wrestling business.
A wonderful mentor who taught me so much.
RIP old friend. 🙏
