État de santé de Terry Funk: Tommy Dreamer se montre rassurant

Alors que PWInsider et l’ex-lutteur Don Muraco ont affirmé que Terry Funk était mal en point, étant notamment atteint de démence, Tommy Dreamer a tenu à faire le point sur les ondes de Busted Open Radio.

Dreamer mentionne que les médias sociaux se sont emballés rapidement. Il a discuté avec Funk le jour de son anniversaire (30 juin), affirmant qu’il allait bien. Même chose lors d’une discussion une semaine avant sa fête. Plusieurs sujets de discussion ont été partagés, dont les études collégiales des filles de Dreamer, la AEW et la WWE sur Peacock. Funk bénéficie bel et bien d’un soutien spécial dans un établissement, mais il a toujours sa maison. Ses filles sont inquiètes car Funk vit seul alors qu’il a 77 ans. Sa santé n’est pas à son meilleur, mais ça s’améliore. Dreamer n’a pas discuté à ses filles de l’état de santé mentale de son père, mais il parle de conversations cohérentes avec Funk.

“With social media, things start to take a life of their own. I get a lot of texts about Terry and his health and I see all these tweets about Terry. The biggest one was the WWE. I talked to Terry on his birthday [June 30] and he was fine. I talked to him the week before his birthday for 40 minutes. He was, and is, sharp as a tack. I’m talking about college for my daughters, the wrestling business where he knows about AEW. He calls it ‘from Dusty’s boys.’ He talks about Vince and knows about Peacock network. He is in assisted living, but he still has his home. He’s 77 and his daughters worry because he’s alone. Sometimes, he’s forgetful and had a rough patch with his health. Ever since he moved (to assisted living), he’s been in better, I don’t want to say spirits, but more with it. I haven’t spoken to his daughters about his mental health, but as clear as my conversation is with [Dave LeGreca], that’s my conversation with Terry.”

Dreamer a également laissé un message à Funk mardi. Funk l’a rappelé et Dreamer lui a rapporté les propos à son sujet, dont ceux de Muraco qui affirment que Funk ne peut pas tenir une conversation, étant atteint de démence. Funk soutient que Scott Casey (un autre ancien lutteur), qui a échangé avec Muraco sur son état de santé, est merdique. Dreamer parle d’une conversation amusante, alors que Funk affirme qu’il fera un coup d’argent avec ça, pour même sortir de sa retraite et retourner dans le ring. Funk est prêt à montrer que si on le traite de fou, il agira comme un fou.

“I called him yesterday and left him a message. He calls me back and I start telling him all the stuff. It started on Don Muraco’s podcast where he’s talking to Scott Casey and apparently they painted him as not being able to put sentences together and having dementia. I told Terry this, and I won’t say what he said about Scott Casey except, ‘He’s full of s***, always was.’ It was perhaps the funniest conversation because now Terry is like, ‘We’re going to make money out of this. Sika’s kid [Roman Reigns] and [Paul Heyman] and me and you. I’m going out of retirement. Let’s do it. I can still draw. I heard the ratings are in the s***ter.’ I hang up, he calls me back and is like, ‘I’m either gonna get arrested. I’m thinking of taking off all my clothes, running out in the street and beating people up. We’ll make money on this somehow. If they think I’m crazy, we’ll show them I’m crazy.’”
