WWE News: Mae Young reportedly still alive, but gravely ill

The report regarding the death of Mae Young earlier today was inaccurate, according to TMZ.com. Mike Mooneyham, who originally reported that the WWE legend had passed away, has updated his story to state that she is still alive, but is gravely ill.

Powell's POV: We have pulled the original story that cited Mooneyham's report of Young's death to avoid further confusion. Mooneyham stated in an update that the source who passed along the inaccurate information simply had incorrect info. Mooneyham is a longtime and respected pro wrestling journalist and I have no doubt that it was an honest mistake.
