In one of the more tragic incidents in his life, Gillberg suffered a heart attack on November 25, 2020, and was put in ICU for a couple of days. However, he quickly recuperated from his condition and was out of the ICU on November 27. James Ellsworth shared this piece of news with the wrestling world after being notified by Gillberg's wife. Ellsworth said the following on Twitter:

“Please send your prayers to Gillberg and his family at this time. We hope he will be home soon and back to his normal, funny, goofy self. Take care, guys and God bless you all. Stay safe.

To cover the bills for his treatment, Ellsworth also started a GoFundMe page, through which several of his fans contributed. However, the most surprising development was when Gillberg made his stunning return to WWE RAW just several weeks after suffering from a heart attack.

His appearance on this week's episode has left many fans praising the legend for his fighting spirit. All of us here at Sportskeeda wish that he continues to stay in the best of his health.
