Former WWE star Savio Vega has been hospitalized.
In a tweet on August 21, IWA Puerto Rico, a promotion Vega remains involved with, tweeted that he is undergoing a series of treatments at the hospital.
A rough translation of the tweet is as follows:
“In an update for our fans, Puerto Rican Major Savio Vega is still in the hospital and undergoing a series of treatments. We wish him a speedy recovery.”

Vega’s brother also tweeted and stated that his brother is “fine and stable.”
“To those who have asked about my brother Savio’s health, thank you,” he wrote. “He is fine and stable. At the moment I ask you please not to write or call him as he needs to be calm and at rest. Thank you all.”
A los que han preguntado por la salud de mi hermano Savio, gracias. El está bien y está estable. Por el momento les pido de favor que no le escriban ni llamen ya que necesita estar tranquilo y en descanso. Gracias a todos.
