Lawer, 75, was due to appear at the Horrorhound convention in Cincinnati last Friday.
The event organisers announced on Monday that his absence was down to “Some personal matters”.
However, he suffered his third stroke in the last seven years, which forced him to pull out of the event.
TMZ have claimed he is already recovering from the latest medical emergency.
The report states suffered an episode at one of his homes in Florida on Friday.
It adds that his daughter Heather, 56, is taking him back to his main home.
There he will rest and recover for a “few weeks” before trying to get back to normal life.
ESPN previously reported that he was hospitalised in 2023 after suffering a stroke.
This came five years after his first stroke.
Back in 2012, the former wrestler suffered a heart attack during a live broadcast of WWE’s Monday Night Raw.
Fans have taken to social media to wish him well on his recovery.
One posted: “Hope he fully recovers.”
A second wrote: “Get well soon, King!”
A third commented: “Prayers for his recovery.”
A fourth said: “Get better old friend.”
Another added: “Get better Jerry. He was the best bad guy.”
Lawer’s last appearance on TV was in February this year as he was caught on camera during WWE SmackDown in Tennessee.
