WWE superfan Jarrius to be honored with Warrior Award

Jarrius Robertson, the 15-year-old double liver transplant survivor who has captured audiences across the sports world, is set to receive the fourth annual WWE Warrior Award.

Robertson will be presented with the award at the 2018 Hall of Fame induction ceremony on April 6 in his hometown of New Orleans, which will stream live on WWE Network.

The Warrior Award is given "to an individual who has exhibited unwavering strength and perseverance and who lives life with the courage and compassion that embodies the indomitable spirit of Ultimate Warrior."

Robertson, who has battled a rare liver disease called biliary atresia since birth, received the WWE Hero award last year and was honored with the Jimmy V Perseverance award at the 2017 ESPYS.
