Enjoy Wrestling has now issued its first statement after Andy Williams — better known as The Butcher — collapsed at the end of his match Saturday night, confirming just how serious the situation became.

The promotion posted the update on X after the September 5 event in Millvale, Pennsylvania, saying its medical team immediately jumped in when Williams went down. Enjoy Wrestling revealed that doctors on staff began CPR and continued working on him until an ambulance arrived. The promotion also confirmed that the show was shut down and everyone was sent home while those close to the situation went to the hospital and waited for more information.

“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”

The statement gives the clearest picture yet of what happened after Williams collapsed at the end of his match during Enjoy Wrestling’s Five Years show at Mr. Smalls Theatre. Initial word from the building was simply that he had gone down and needed medical attention, but the promotion has now confirmed that CPR was required before he was transported.

There is still no official word on what caused Williams to collapse or his current condition. For now, the promotion is waiting at the hospital for answers, and everyone else is waiting on the same thing — some good news about The Butcher.

Ringside News will continue to monitor the situation as updates become available.
