False death reports
 

For the last few years, there's always some fool posting fake death reports of some wrestlers...

October 15, 2006: WWE reported that Corporal Kirchner passed away. However, six days later, turned out that he is still alive and the rumor was false. It was a mix-up.

February 20, 2012: WWC reported that Rex King passed away. A day later, it turned out to be false and that he is still alive.

December 3, 2012: There was reports that DC Drake passed away. A day later, it turned out to be false and that he is still alive.

I think it's totally distasteful to falsify a death report.

i hear john cena died in a car crash last night

I don't see any official reports on that, Razz.

I'm reliefed that the Rex King one was just a rumour!

You're relieved? I can take down the candles I've had lit!

Wasn't Seth posting these in an attempt to "scoop" other people?

Does this mean Bobby Jagger's is still alive? That's awesome!

I was gonna edit the title of this thread to say something like "so and so wrestler passes away" as a goof but I've really been abusing my mod abuse powers lately

but that's mostly just to annoy Lock Jaw

whatever I'll probably edit the title later anyway

Death Reports on a Case By Case Basis.

These fake death reports seriously lack humourous details.

Fake death reports - Real death angry

I gotta agree with DLVH here death really isn't something to be joking around about. I mean if it was clearly a joke and done only as a spoof then maybe I'd feel differently, but when people post things like this in a serious manner it's really distasteful.

I am glad you didn't. I love So And So Wrestler and would be saddened to even think of his passing.

Wasn't Rex King an assistant to Led Zeppelin who drove Bonham to get his "4/4" vodka shot that ultimately ended up being fatal?

Wrong Rex King, man. This one was Steve Doll's tag team partner in The Southern Rockers/Simply Devine/Well Dunn.

I've never heard of any of these people.

It's 3 false reports in 6 years....

I wouldn't be surprised if that happens to most news sources in 3 days.

If I recall correctly, Kurt Angle had a fake death rumor about him in like 2005 (either that, or people thought he was on death watch).

Death rumor: this thread.

RIP thread.

Does that mean Bobby Jaggers is still alive?

No. His was proven.

Have you seen the body?

Don't tell me Jesse Ventura is dead

No.

No, but newspaper articles in the Kansas City area, as well as interviews from his family on various websites confirmed it.

Didn't Ultimate Warrior die 6 times or sommat back in the late 80's?

That was another rumor that was false. I even heard one about him having a twin brother, but that was false as well.

I think he is still ALIVE. Bobby Jaggers is eternal. Who do you think he'll rassle next?

Chris Benoit

Proven true.

I knew it was false, I was just joining in on the silliness that are fake death reports :y:

I always knew the Owen Hart thing was a work.

Conspiracy.

Also no proof.

Pics or it didn't happen.

WHAT? No way!

you got me

Please change the title to this. You fuck.

You got me big time you asshole.

Wow hahaha.

I was really worried Jesse Ventura died.

Someone should tell Billy Jack Haynes he died anyway so Billy Jack can make another shoot video and accuse Vince of being behind it.

Jesse is awesome, headline made me upset @ first :(

You have no right to change my topic's title whatsoever. I do not go over to your topic and change the title you wanted. I don't hack anyone else's posts or topics.

Power Hungry Mods. FEED THEM MORE (attention).

TPWW IS TOTALLY OUT OF CONTRROOOOOOLLLLLL *SNAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRKKK*

RIP Jesse "The Body" Ventura. A gimmick based off Ace Ventura was always a great idea.

There would be plenty of people who would want Ventura to die at this point.

Ain't got time to die.

I still wanna see proof Bobby Jaggers died.

hahaha

Dude DLVH that's not cool saying that Jesse died. I expected better out of you. Enjoy your neg rep.

Son of a bitch, I fell for it too.

Maybe this means Vicky Venom is still alive. She's the greatest diva of all time.

I did not put that title in. Somebody probably hacked my account, the bastard.

Did Andre the Giant really die?

Okay, enough. Enough. I think everybody has had their fun in this. Time to close this thread.

I was really worried that Conspiracy Theory would be cancelled. Phew. What a sweet show that is.

Yeah that sucks. Who do you think did it?

Supreme, there should be a committee formed to get to the bottom of this. Whoever did this dastardly deed deserves a damn lot of neg rep. Poor ol Def Leppard Van Heusen.

DLVH84 why are you spreading false stories? I just took a night off work because I was so upset. I officially hate you and hope Eddie Van Halen gets arm cancer.

whoa, he's 61?

Ain't got time to age.

he WAS 61...

If one believes the rumours, there were like four warriors, 15 Undertakers, 6 Kanes and at least two Stings.

Because thought has never been one of your strong points.

There were also 18 different Doinks. All b/c of death. You rassle as Doink, you die. In fact, they are making a movie next year about this called Doinked starring Mark-Paul Gosselaar and the mother from Growing Pains.

And Lou Diamond Philips as Gorilla Monsoon right?

Of course. I can't wait. Next summer, wooooooo!

Lol greatest thing ever

Tony Soprano as Bruno Sammartino.

Here's an idea, based on Gertner bumping your old threads: stop reporting it.

The reason they do this is because it gets hits and attention and you're giving it to them.

When did the original Ultimate Warrior die DLVH? RIP

I gotta agree with DLVH here death really isn't something to be joking around about. I mean if it was clearly a joke and done only as a spoof then maybe I'd feel differently, but when people post things like this in a serious manner it's really distasteful.Des Moines Wrestling

So...Death isn't something to joke around about, but it's okay if it's a joke.

lolwot.

I guess he truly is "The Body" now :'(

someone edited the original thread title.... mod abuse

Ain't got time to be a hoax.

R.I.P

This was uncalled for. Hopefully DLVH84 has learned not to make fake death reports. Where ever he is.

This thread is gonna get an elbow drop!

Guess we figured out who edited Benoits Wikipedia page early

Ain't got time to bump threads.

Find time, even if you have to go Bump in the Night.

To this day, i am very sad about Jesse Ventura being dead

I love this thread so much

fuck this bullshit then now and forever

I heard Bill Nye died too (SPOILER ALERT)
