NEWS: Marc Mero to Undergo Major Heart Surgery

NEWS: The former Johnny B. Badd recently received some terrible news, in the form of a medical report. Mero, who has had heart problems for nearly a decade, will undergo surgery to replace a faulty aorta and heart valve. The following is a quote from Mero, "Darlene and I just left the Cleveland Clinic for my annual heart checkup. Unfortunately it wasn’t the good news we have received on previous visits. At first we were shocked but realize it’s all in Gods hands. There are so many people that have it much worse than I. People fighting to survive, people that have a terminal illness or lost a loved one. We are looking up with thanksgiving. We serve a mighty Big God. We are so thankful I have the best surgeon in the country! Dr Lars Svenson will be operating on my heart on June 16th in Cleveland, Ohio. I need surgery to replace my aorta and my heart valve. Thank you to our friends and family for your support, thoughts and prayers. Love you all!" Mero is a retired professional wrestler turned motivational speaker. He has wrestled for WWE, WCW, and TNA. Although Mero retired from professional wrestling, he has admitted to having used anabolic steroids for a period of seven years during the height of his career. Although it is purely speculation at this point, one of the side effects of long-term steroid use is heart damage. Mero serves as a reminder, as to what wrestlers go through just to entertain fans and put food on the table. We, at Cheap Heat Wrestling, wish Mero a successful surgery and a speedy recovery.
