Davey Boy Smith Jr. is recovering from having emergency surgery earlier this week.

Major League Wrestling‘s Davey Boy Smith Jr. recently took to Instagram to address his emergency surgery and what he had to endure.

“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. -Harry,” Davey Boy Smith Jr. said in a post.

Due to the surgery, Tom Lawlor is replacing Smith Jr. and will challenge Alex Kane at MLW Slaughterhouse this weekend.

On behalf of everyone here at WrestleZone, we wish Davey Boy Smith Jr. a speedy recovery.
