Former WWE Star Davey Boy Smith Jr. Undergoes Emergency Surgery

Davey Boy Smith Jr. shared some scary news in a post on Instagram as the former WWE star had to get emergency surgery.

Smith previously was under contract with WWE from 2006 until 2011, where he was a 2-time tag team champion with Tyson Kidd. He signed with WWE again in 2021, but only worked a dark match and never made his TV return before being released.

In the IG post, Smith shared that he had to get his appendix and colon removed. He wrote the following:

“I wanted to inform everyone officially I needed to have Emergency surgery ‍⚕️ ❤️‍ late last night for appendicitis + appendix removal, to find out it was diverticulitis as well. I have had part of colon removed with some of my appendix as well for the procedure .

Folks this was one of the most painful experiences of my life, but I’m glad I got it done. A burst appendix can lead to serious complications too. I’m sad to announce my withdrawal from the @majorleaguewrestling World Title Match vs. Alex Kane this weekend in Philadelphia as well. Hopefully I can get this same opportunity in the future when I’m back healthy, and so sorry to my fans, these things happen and was not something I ever want to endure again! Trust me! The was a 12/10 in the pain scale. Arigatou. I’m in stable condition now, but I am still in immense pain I’ll keep everyone posted with updates.

Thanks for everyone reaching out to me also.
