Seth Rollins’ The Black & The Brave wrestling academy in Moline, IL has issued a statement regarding the death of 20-year-old Jonah Snyder, a student who suffered a medical emergency at the school last week. Snyder has been taking part in a training session when he became ill. Trainers instructed him to sit down and rest, but his conditioned worsened. He ultimately went into cardiac arrest and was pronounced dead at a local hospital.
When Rollins was contacted by The Quad City Times for comments, he directed them to this Twitter statement from the school:
It is with great sadness that we acknowledge the passing of our student, Jonah Snyder. Jonah attended the first night of our 7th Black and Brave class a week ago. After briefly participating in fitness drills with his classmates he abruptly fell ill. Emergency personnel were called and Jonah was rushed to the hospital. He passed away en route. No cause of death has been determined.
Jonah loved professional wrestling and in closing we wanted to leave you with his words. Below is an excerpt from the essay Jonah penned for his application to our school. All of our thoughts are with Jonah’s family and friends as they go through this incredibly difficult time.
“I live, breath, sleep, and eat wrestling. It’s in my blood. I want to learn it so I can travel the world putting a smile on people’s faces. I wanna give them hope or something to believe in.”
