X-Men star and former WCW wrestler Tyler Mane has announced that he’s been diagnosed with breast cancer.
Tyler Mane is known for playing Sabretooth in the first X-Men film in 2000 and for reprising his role for a cameo in Deadpool & Wolverine in 2024. He is a retired professional wrestler, having competed for WCW as Big Sky in the early ’90s. He has also worked for CMLL, UWF, AJPW, and NJPW.
Mane recently took to Facebook to reveal that he has been diagnosed with breast cancer and that he’s starting chemotherapy. He noted that one in 750 men will develop breast cancer at some point in their lives. The former WCW star wants to document his journey and create awareness to help other men who might be unaware of the symptoms.
“I have some bad news. I start chemo today. One in 750 men will be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime, and I’m one of them. Because it’s rarely talked about, it’s usually found at later stages and has worse outcomes. I want to change that. Follow, like, and share, and come along for my journey to kick this thing in the a*s. Send this to 10 of your friends and have them follow me because people need to hear this. F**k cancer!” the former WCW star said.
WrestleZone wishes Tyler Mane a speedy recovery.
