WWE Hall of Famer Afa is recovering in hospital after being diagnosed with pneumonia and suffering two heart attacks on the scene.
In a message shared on his Facebook page, it was stated that after being taken to hospital with pneumonia, Afa suffered two heart attacks.
\"Update on Afa the Wild Samoan, affectionately known as Pops: Afa was admitted to the hospital last night with pneumonia, but had a mild heart attack upon arrival. Today, he had a second small heart attack and was sent for a heart catheterization. He is doing ok, his spirits are high. He isn\'t out of the woods yet, but will be kept in the hospital for a day or two for observation and monitoring. He thanks everyone for their concern, continued love, and prayers.\
This is sadly not the first time Afa has dealt with serious medical issues. Last month, Afa had two exploratory heart procedures to check valves. His son Afa Jr. was discharged from hospital in September 2023 after suffering a cardiac incident that left him \"fighting for his life.\" Afa Jr. is best known for his brief WWE tenure as Manu.
