WWE’s Alexa Bliss breaks down in tears and begs vets to ‘do better’ after pet pig Larry-Steve’s death

Alexa Bliss has pleaded with vets to ‘do better’ after her pet pig Larry-Steve died this week.

The WWE superstar is devastated after the death of her beloved friend, and she revealed on Monday night that she struggled to find someone who would take care of him while he was in pain.

In an emotional video, Alexa cried as she said: ‘I just wanted to get on here and say thank you to everyone who has reached out about Larry and to let everyone know that I really appreciate the amount of support and people who have called and texted.

‘I will get back to you, I just can’t yet because we’re still trying to wrap our heads around what happened. Larry went very quickly, digressed really quickly, and we don’t really fully understand it yet.

‘But he was surrounded by people who loved him, my family was there, we were petting him and Ryan was playing him music on his guitar because Larry loved music.

‘I just wanna say, any animal care-person or vet – no matter how big an animal is or how different they are, please help them.

‘I hope Larry’s story helps open people’s eyes to the realities of having animals around his size. I just want people to do better.’

Meanwhile, Alexa – who explained this week that a number of vets hung up when they heard her mention her pig – revealed she and her loved ones are going to ‘celebrate’ Larry’s birthday after he died the day before the milestone.

She added: ‘We are gonna celebrate Larry’s birthday tomorrow. I really want to do something where we celebrate his birthday and maybe do a charity thing to raise money for an animal rescue.

‘If that’s something that you guys are interested in seeing, just let us know. And again – thank you.’

After keeping fans up to date as she tried to find someone to visit the house to check on Larry, Alexa revealed the sad news that he had died.

Alongside a touching photo of her holding his trotter, she wrote: ‘On the day before his 4th birthday. This morning Larry-Steve gained his Angel wings.

‘I’m so sorry we couldn’t find you the help you needed in time. Some people didn’t agree to help you.

‘But I want you to know Larry, YOUR LIFE MATTERED. We are completely heartbroken.’
