“Hacksaw” Jim Duggan hospitalized over the weekend, has two surgeries to fight an infection

WWE Hall of Famer “Hacksaw” Jim Duggan has been hospitalized over the weekend.

PWInsider initially reported that Duggan was in the hospital for an undisclosed reason, which forced him to cancel a signing at the Legends of the Ring convention in New Jersey.

Things took a turn for the worse as he soon developed an infection in the hospital that required two surgeries to clear it up. His wife, Debra, provided the update using Duggan’s Instagram account. Duggan will remain in the hospital for the next couple of days, but is currently resting comfortably.

Duggan was hospitalized in late-November 2018 due to an irregular heartbeat. Duggan’s heart had to be shocked back into rhythm then.

On behalf of the staff of Wrestleview.com, we wish Jim Duggan a speedy recovery.

Hello everyone, this is Debra. This picture is hours after his second emergency surgery in 24 hours. He had a severe infection but we think we got all of it although he will be in the hospital for a few more days. Thank you all for your continued thoughts and prayers.
