Independent wrestler D.C. Drake has not died despite numerous reports to the contrary. Drake's sister Carlee Stackhouse sent out a correction on her Facebook page. "For those who happen to be hearing false rumors, my brother Don Drake, a/k/a D.C. Mad Dog Drake, is NOT dead," Stackhouse wrote.

"He is alive and well and I just got off the phone with him. So please, I ask that you do not spread these rumors and put them out when you hear them. Again, he is not dead. He is alive and well." [Thanks to Gary Boyer]

Powell's POV: I'm not sure where the reports started, but obviously the most important thing is that Drake is alive and well. The rumors were widespread enough that Paul Heyman commented on Drake's reported death on his Twitter page this morning. I am pulling the story we ran earlier today regarding Drake that included Heyman's comments to avoid further confusion.
