The WWE Hall of Famer, Paul Heyman made a shocking revelation about his health.

Paul Heyman has been in the pro wrestling business since the 1980s. He achieved a legendary status with his time as an ECW promoter and as a great manager in the WWE for years. Even at 60 years of age, Heyman is showcasing his energy and genius while being the manager of The Vision faction.

Meanwhile, Paul Heyman recalled a segment with Jey Uso from May last year, where he had a crashout after turning on Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 41, as he had a real health condition.

Paul Heyman made a revelation about his medical health during a WWE segment

Speaking with Chris Van Vliet about his segment with Jey Uso last year, where he crashed out, saying he is not the betrayer or double-crosser, Paul Heyman addressed the segment becoming a meme later.

Heyman disclosed that his crash-out was real during that segment because he was dealing with multiple infections at that time:

That crash-out was very real to me, because at the time, I always get sick right after WrestleMania, because I wear myself so down going into WrestleMania, so I always get sick. I always end up with a sinus infection, or bronchitis, or something, inner ear infection. Something goes wrong with me the week or two after WrestleMania, every single year.”

Paul Heyman further revealed how he got a kidney stone at that time and had to be hospitalized as well:

At that particular moment I got a kidney stone, or several kidney stones, and in passing the kidney stone it was so sharp it cut my urinary tract, and besides cutting my urinary tract, it left my urinary tract in a position to where I could catch an infection, and man, the last place you want an infection like that is in the urinary tract, because it’s tough to get rid of.”

So now the urinary tract inflames, presses up against the prostate, irritates the prostate, the infection now starts to spread, and now the infection is in the urinary tract and in the prostate, and it’s spreading through my system. I end up in the hospital. Shout out to White Plains Hospital, because, wow, they took wonderful care of me.”

Heyman recalled that he wanted to be on RAW next Monday despite being hospitalized due to a serious medical condition and the doctors also warned him:

I end up in the hospital, and all I’m asking is, I have to be out of here by Sunday night, because I have to be on the jet on Monday to go to Raw. They’re looking at me saying, ‘You have a very serious infection.’ I mean, they’re bringing in people from infectious diseases, because I’m allergic to penicillin, number one, and number two, any antibiotics that they’re giving me, none of them are working. Infection is getting worse. My temperature is rising, and the effects of the infection are taking hold, but I won’t miss work.” [H/T ITRWrestling.com]

Paul Heyman concluded that it may have been the most miserable experience of his life besides booking the ECW rebirth in 2006.
