Speaking to The Hannibal TV, Anoaʻi was asked about his cousin and how things have been going, and  “It was a shock when he first had it, years ago, when he got drafted into the NFL, that’s where they first found out he had leukemia,” he said. “So, it stopped him from going into the NFL, and when it came back, it was a shock to all of us, because he didn’t tell us all until he went on live TV.”

Despite the scare, Anoaʻi said that he and his family are in a great place, and that he had been speaking to Reigns, noting that their family feels very blessed to have had everything work out. “I’m glad he’s in remission right now…he looks good, and we’re just blessed.”
