Hi friends, fans, and family —

My name is Bay Ragni, and many of you may know me as Chubby Dudley, an ECW Original, podcaster, and lifelong entertainer. As most of you know, I suffered five heart attacks in April 2024 in a 24 hour span, in which I had 90% blockage, and a stent placed in my heart.

This past Sunday night hospitalized again for another emergency procedure to remove a 95% blockage and place yet another stent.

As if that was not enough, during my hospitalization, I was also diagnosed with diabetes, a new health challenge that requires daily monitoring, lifestyle changes, and medications. That has made it temporarily impossible for me to return to my physically demanding job.

I am currently recovering at home, but unfortunately, this means I’ve had to pause work, — resulting in a serious financial strain with mounting medical bills, prescriptions, and basic living expenses.

Moreover, I am the main source of income for my family, and not being able to work right now means everything — rent, utilities, and food, is a struggle.

The stress of recovery is hard enough, but knowing my family is affected too makes it even tougher.

For the first time in a long time, I am ready to do the work—not just to survive, but to transform.

I must rebuild myself from the inside out—not just physically, but mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. I want to be strong enough to show up for the people I love, to inspire others who are struggling, and to feel alive again—not just breathing.

This is not about chasing old glories. This is about choosing life.

I’m determined to:

• Lose weight safely and sustainably!

• Get diabetes under control!

• Focus on healing my heart, mind, and soul!

• Break the cycle of burnout, stress, and putting others first!

• Stay on track—for good this time!

I have always been proud to give my all to the wrestling and entertainment community, and my friends, now I’m humbly asking for a little help during this tough time. Whether it’s $5, $25, or just a share, anything helps.

Your support will go directly toward:

• Medical bills & Prescriptions

• Groceries and basic bills during recovery

• Diabetes management supplies

Thank you from the bottom of my (mending) heart for any help you can offer.

— Bay “Chubby Dudley” Ragni
