Ex-WWE star and 39-year veteran has GoFundMe opened after suffering knife attack

Former WWE star and a 39-year veteran 2 Cold Scorpio is having an extremely difficult time in his life and needs help. His wife put out a fundraiser detailing the situation and how it came to be.

2 Cold Scorpio had two stints in WWE, one in the mid-to-late 1990s and one brief run in 2006-07. He is mostly known for his time in WCW and even ECW. In WWE, he was known as Flash Funk. His wife put up a GoFundMe, revealing that his bookings as a wrestler dried up due to his age, which made him train to be a security personnel as a career alternative. An incident occurred where an individual, who appeared to be under the influence was asked to put out his cigarette by 2 Cold Scorpio. His wife said it was an unfavorable position for him as the man reacted violently while the 58-year-old resisted using any firearms despite his right to do so.

The incident left him wounded by a knife attack, as was the assailant during the scuffle. He was not offered healthcare insurance by the licensed security company he was working for. Thus, his wife is seeking contributions to help with his medical expenses:

It must be a really difficult time for 2 Cold Scorpio and his wife.
