The incident happened during Enjoy Wrestling’s Five Years event at Mr. Smalls Theatre in Millvale, Pennsylvania. Williams teamed with The Blade against TME. Williams reportedly collapsed towards the end of the bout. The Blade immediately tried to help his tag team partner and called for assistance.

Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful first reported the story on X. Enjoy Wrestling later confirmed that the wrestler received CPR before an ambulance arrived.

“Andy collapsed at the end of his match this evening. Our doctors on staff tended to him immediately, administering CPR until the ambulance arrived. We sent everyone home and are at the hospital now waiting for more information. Thanks to everyone who helped and has reached out.”

POST Wrestling shared some updates from fans in attendance. One attendee said chest compressions were performed while those at the venue waited for further medical assistance. Ice was also reportedly used before an AED was brought to the scene.

The wrestler was eventually taken to the hospital by ambulance. The rest of the event was canceled while he received medical attention. There has been no further update on Williams’ condition at this time. The cause of the medical emergency is also not known.

The wrestler Andy Williams competed in AEW

The Butcher and The Blade have been longtime tag team partners. The two worked together on the independent wrestling scene before signing with AEW in 2019.

The duo remained with the Tony Khan-led promotion for several years before leaving the company earlier this year after their contracts expired. Despite being there for nearly seven years, the team did not manage to capture any titles. However, they were involved in several heated programs with teams like The Young Bucks and FTR.
