JAKE ROBERTS HEALTH UPDATE

By Mike Johnson on 2014-08-28 17:49:24
WWE Hall of Famer Jake Roberts is currently hospitalized in an ICU unit of a Las Vegas hospital, PWInsider.com can confirm.

Roberts collapsed on a flight traveling to Vegas for an appearance for a show being promoted by Sinn "Kizarny" Bodhi this weekend and was removed from the flight via ambulance when it arrived in Vegas as the crew was unable to revive him.

Roberts had been very ill over the last week, believed to be double pneumonia but blew off going to the doctor before getting on his flight.

As of this writing, he has still yet to regain consciousness and is technically in a coma. Bodhi has been with Roberts at the hospital.

Obviously, we wish Roberts and his family nothing but the best during this time.
