As noted before, WWE Hall of Famer Barry Windam had stated in a recent interview with 1Wrestling’s Bill Apter that WWE Hall of Famer Mike Rotunda was in hospice care.
Rotunda’s daughter Mika issued an official statement earlier today on Instagram clarifying her father’s current health situation. Mika stated that her father had recently suffered a heart attack. Mika also stated that her father is currently recovering at a rehabilitation center and is not in a hospice.
PUBLIC STATEMENT ON BEHALF OF THE ROTUNDA FAMILY
Our family would like to take a moment to clarify some information currently circulating online regarding my father, Mike Rotunda, Yes, my uncle Barry did make a comment mentioning that my father is in hospice care while answering a question about my late brother, Windham, whom we lost two years ago.
My father is not in hospice, but rather in a rehabilitation center. He suffered a massive heart attack on September 20th, was in a coma for a week, and spent over a month hospitalized. By the grace of God, he has now transitioned to a rehabilitation center, where our family remains present, hopeful, and focused on his recovery.
It has already been a long road, and we know there is still a long road ahead-but our faith in God remains strong. Anyone who knows my dad knows that it’s his strength, work ethic, and athleticism that have carry him through not just this, but every challenge life has thrown his way. If there’s one person I have faith in, it’s Captain Mike.
We are deeply grateful for the outpouring of love, prayers, and support from the wrestling world and our local communities. At this time, we kindly ask for privacy as we continue walking this journey together but we warmly welcome continued prayers, good energy and healing thoughts for his recovery.
With love and gratitude,
Mika Rotunda
