Update On Health Status Of Jim Crockett Jr

Over the weekend, the official Crockett Sports Promotions Facebook account posted a statement, writing that Jim Crockett Jr had been hospitalised and wasn’t doing well.

Dave Meltzer followed this up with a report that noted Crockett’s liver and kidneys were failing, adding that the former NWA President was in a “grave condition”, with things “not looking good”.

On the latest Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer has added that Jim Crockett took himself off dialysis and is now in hospice care:

“I don’t have a lot of details, but from what I understand, he took himself off of dialysis and he’s in hospice care. So that’s usually kind of a sign that it’s not looking good.”
