Rebel says that her spirits were lifted by the showing of support that AEW and fans had for her following her reveal that she has ALS. As noted last night, Tony Schiavone spoke on AEW Collision about the news that the AEW star had been diagnosed with the condition, popularly known as Lou Gehrig’s disease. She made the announcement on Saturday via a video on Instagram.

Following the message by Schiavone, Rebel posted to her Instagram stories on Sunday morning to express gratitude to Schiavone, AEW, and the fanbase. She wrote:

“Thank you to my @aew family and @tonyrkhan and thank you to the fans for the signs. They truly lift my spirits”

Rebel has been part of the AEW roster since 2019. She last competed for AEW back in August of 2022 during an AEW Dark taping, and has undergone a number of health issues over the past few years including a diagnosis of lung cancer back in November.

On behalf of 411, our best wishes to Rebel.
