Just seen on Twitter that Mae Young has died aged 90.

A genuine legend of the wrestling world, she was still taking bumps into her 70's.

RIP Mae

Since her real age is about 95 then I'd say she was taking bumps into her 80s

Wrestled in every decade from the 1930s to 2010s. Wanted a match on her hundreth birthday. Didn't just agree to take big bumps, she insisted:

Hold the phone people, apparently the source was given mis-information. She isn't dead but is very ill

Kicking out at 2, even at the end. Apparently she was scheduled to be on old-school RAW until she was taken into hospice care last week.

Speaking of which, here's her last match (from 2010). Probably best remembered for her calling LayCool 'sluts' and 'little bitches' in the interview beforehand (about 3 minutes in).

Mae Young: The toughest SOB in the WWE.

Hopefully reports of her demise have been greatly exaggerated.

It was all a work

WWE were going to hold an in-ring funeral and she was going to burst out of the casket and throttle the ladies champion to take over the belt

I heard the same plans with Chris Benoit and the WWE Championship were shelved a few years ago.

Credit to Womble, he didnt weaver, he was sure she was dead a week ago and was determined not to change the title of the thread until he was proven right, I admire that single minded determination  Wink
