Vader announced last year that he was dealing with some heart issues and was only given a few years to live. He had a scare on Thursday at the wrestling event in Japan to celebrate the 45th anniversary of the debut of Tatsumi Fujinami.

Vader teamed with Keiji Muto and AKIRA to take on Riki Choshu, Shiro Koshinaka & Tatsumi Fujinami in a six-man tag team match at the event.
Vader reportedly collapsed briefly in a scary moment after the match.

On Twitter, Vader says that he did collapse but it had nothing to do with his heart issues and was because he was dropped on his head:
