Former ECW star and current AEW coach Jerry Lynn had announced last week that he was pulling out of the Starrcast IV convention because of a health issue but at the time there weren’t many details available about his health.

The wrestling veteran provided an update on his status from his Twitter account recently and in a tweet, he revealed that he will be undergoing surgery for a bulging disc.

Lynn announced that he will be having this operation later this month on November 29 and revealed that it will take him 3 to 4 weeks to recover from the surgery:
