Wrestlers who had cancer...

[Xero]

Reading about Piper on WWE.com, I got to wondering, has there ever been a wrestler diagnosed with cancer, after treatment returned to the ring? Not in a commentary/manager-type role, but actual matches.

Jim Duggan.

[Xero]

I knew he had something, but didn't know it was cancer. :y:

I thought about Dr. Death, but has he wrestled after the cancer?

[ddpBANG]

Kobashi will be returning soon after beating cancer.

Didn't Scotty too Hotty beat testicular cancer?

[Nugget]

No.

[Xero]

Actually, yeah, he did. I remember the "One Ball" jokes from a few years ago.

[Nugget]

When exactly was this? I'm pretty sure it wasn't true.

[Xero]

Can't pin-point a date but there are numerous Google hits related to it.

[Xero]

Actually it may have been just a scare and they removed one of his testicles to be sure.

[The Ravishing One]

Actually, yeah, he did. I remember the "One Ball" jokes from a few years ago.

Thanks, i can now rest.
