Longtime TNA/IMPACT Wrestling commentator and personality Don West shared that he will soon begin treatment for brain lymphoma.
West has a radio show on the KPQ station and he provided an update on his health through the station’s website. West’s show had been on hiatus and listeners began to wonder where he was. He added that he will begin treatment immediately and is hoping to be back on the airwaves in the future.
Hello everybody,
Don West here to tell you about how disappointed I am not to be talking about the Seattle Seahawks, the Mariners, the Wenatchee Wild and everything else that we love to talk about every day on the Don West Show.
Many of you have wondered where I have been and why the show is on hiatus. So I want to share this news directly with you. I have been diagnosed with a brain lymphoma and will begin immediate treatment.
I want to thank my wife Terri for her love and support, my family and everyone that works at Cherry Creek Media and KPQ. I also want to thank the Don West Show’s incredible sponsors and my friends for all the prayers that are coming my way. I am praying the chemotherapy will help me heal faster and hopefully I’ll be back on the radio soon.
I can’t wait until this is all over and I can be back with you all again, I love you all!
Don West
West spent a decade as a part of the TNA/IMPACT Wrestling broadcast team. He returned to the company in 2017 to call their Slammiversary pay-per-view.
POST Wrestling sends our well wishes to Don West.
