Wrestling Legend Diamond Dallas Page Hospitalized

WWE Hall of Famer Diamond Dallas Page announced he was hospitalized after going into atrial fibrillation, sharing a video of himself from his hospital bed on his Instagram account Wednesday (August 27).

"Minutes after waking up from a successful cardioversion, I’m back stretching. My wife, @paygemcmahon is like… ‘can you just rest for 24-hours?’ 🤪," Page wrote. "Last week, I went into AFib. I normally wear a heart monitor when training, but for some reason didn’t this day. I pushed myself too hard, felt ‘off’, dizzy and heart racing… and well, here we are…

"This is my 2nd time with AFib (irregular heartbeats) in the past 3 years. I’ll have a cardio ablation next month and should be good to go. I will never not wear a heart monitor and/or @apple watch when working out again. I promise Payge🙏🏼!

"If you are over 50 and or have a slightly enlarged heart, you should wear a heart monitor too! @ddpyoga."

Page, 69, a former three-time WCW World Heavyweight Champion, has launched a successful yoga program following his retirement from in-ring competition, which has been credited for saving the lives of several of his colleagues, having recently shared a video of fellow WWE Hall of Famer Lex Luger walking unsupported for the first time since his 2007 spinal injury after participating in his rehabilitation program.

"We’re more of a workout as opposed to finding yourself. I didn’t develop this workout for yogis, I developed this workout for athletes who are beat up," Page said during an interview with ESPN in 2013. "I want you to be able to work out and go play softball or tennis or go skiing and not feel like they got hit by a truck the next day. We deliver minimal joint impact, and there isn’t another workout out there that has minimal joint impact that will give you dramatic increased flexibility, core strengthening, and a kick-ass cardiovascular workout. The only workout that has minimal joint impact that will give you a great cardiovascular workout is bicycling, and you don’t get any flexibility there. If anything, it inhibits it. You don’t build any muscle mass the way DDP Yoga does.
