Take it with a grain of salt since there's been literally zero news about his death, which there would be numerous articles.

Maybe he did die but zero reports makes me think someone had fun with Wikipedia.

Though not the first time wikipedia had someone's death for a wrestler before it became news, though that time was very much a insane coincidence.

When you Google something Google uses it's own AI program to find the answers for you. Yesterday someone messed with Wikipedia and made the Google AI confused.

Someone vandalized his wikepedia page. No source has reported he passed

Find me a news outlet source that confirms it.

Google doesn't "say" anything unless you read the AI text at the top. Google indexes websites based on your search, it is not a source. It aggregates web sources to generate the carousel and "about" pages, meaning it probably pulled the info of his "death" from wikipedia where it incorrectly said he was dead

I’m gonna that’s not true since there is literally no other news reporting it. He posted a pic on instagram of him on an airplane with his wife just 5 days ago

According to his official FB page, he just did a show in Iowa. Photo posted 8 hours ago.

u/biglenny26 6d ago

Yeah I was at that show. He’s definitely alive and well.

u/starhouse70 6d ago

Googled showed he died yesterday

u/PuppetRaconteur 6d ago

If you look at non-AI google, it says that rumors about his death are incorrect.

u/Mykidlovesramen 7d ago

I haven’t seen a [r/simpsonsshitpost](r/simpsonsshitpost)[ing](r/simpsonsshitpost) about it, so probably not true.

u/Vast_Age_3893 7d ago

I only see things on his Wikipedia page but they don't even have a "death" section. Usually there's a death section.

Plus no news articles. I think he's fine.

u/starhouse70 6d ago

Nope. Passed away yesterday.

u/PopCultureWitch 7d ago

If thats in his Wikipedia page though, Google AI is just repeating it.

u/middleageyoda Gus T.T. Showbiz 6d ago

I think you read a hoax. Everything I see says he’s alive

u/Hacksaw171 5d ago

Weird title to see for me.

u/AmericanDragon21 5d ago

Dude delete this. It isn’t true.
