Independent Wrestler Jonathan ‘Jaka’ Echevarria Suffers Heart Attack, GoFundMe Set Up

The donation link is below.

A GoFundMe has been set up for independent wrestler Jonathan ‘Jaka’ Echevarria. His sister shared on the fundraiser page bio that her brother suffered a heart attack and is currently in the ICU. Below is her full post:

It is with a heavy heart that I’m creating this GoFundMe on behalf of my brother, Jonathan “Jaka/Tyson/Tio” Echevarria. He is currently in the ICU after suffering a heart attack and remains in critical condition. Our family is holding tightly to faith, praying for his complete healing and full restoration. Jonathan is the kind of person who brings laughter and energy wherever he goes—a fun, lovable pain in the butt who means the world to us. Seeing him in this state has been incredibly difficult, but we are staying strong for him and for each other.

While our focus is on Jonathan’s recovery, we’re also preparing for the financial challenges ahead. The hospital bills are already mounting, and we know there will be ongoing costs for physical therapy and support during his time away from work. I would hate for money to become a burden during this already overwhelming time, which is why I’ve created this fundraiser. We want Jonathan to focus solely on getting better, regaining his strength, and returning to the person we all know and adore. Thank you in advance for your prayers, generosity, and support. With gratitude, Annette
