WWE has announced Jarrius “JJ” Robertson will receive the 4th annual Warrior Award.

The Warrior award is presented annually to “an individual who has exhibited unwavering strength and perseverance and who lives life with the courage and compassion that embodies the indomitable spirit of Ultimate Warrior.”

Jarius was diagnosed with a rare chronic liver disease and has undergone dozens of surgeries. He spends much of his time encouraging others to become organ donors.

Connor Michalek, Joan Lunden, and Eric LeGrand are the first 3 winners of the award.

“Being honored by WWE means the world to me. I feel very blessed,” stated Robertson.

“Jarrius has shown immeasurable amounts of courage, strength and positivity during the hardest of times. His infectious smile and personality light up any room, with no one the wiser of the pain he could have been enduring at any given moment,” said Stephanie McMahon. “His determination to help others fight their toughest battles and his work to bring awareness to organ donation make him a true Warrior and the perfect recipient of this year’s award in his hometown of New Orleans.”
