Tough Enough 3 Winner and Ohio Valley Wrestling wrestler Matt Cappotelli confirmed at last night's OVW taping that he is suffering from brain cancer.
In an emotional in-ring interview, the wrestler handed the championship belt to Danny Davis, citing his inability to compete.
Doctors told Cappotelli that on a scale of 1-4, with four being the worst, his cancer is a two. He will pursue treatment options and presently does not know if he will be able to wrestle again.
The crowd was tearful as Cappotelli talked about his condition and then led the arena in a prayer session. All his fellow wrestlers came out to the ring to give support.
Following his speech, which concluded before 10PM, he stayed to spend time with fans as they exited the arena. He chatted with fans until after midnight.
