Which WWE Star Was Listed As Dead On Wikipedia?

They saw the funny side. IF there's a funny side...

Lacey Evans

Lacey Evans is alive and well, but her Wikipedia page claims that isn't the case.

Someone recently edited the WWE star's entry to say that she "used to perform on the SmackDown brand under the ring name Lacey Evans before her death".

A fan spotted this alarming error and decided to tweet Evans for her thoughts. To her credit, Lacey didn't take the (rather grim) edit personally and replied, "How did I die though?". That led some fans down the path of giving their own predictions for her demise, because of course it did.

Social media, and the internet in general, can be a rather strange place.

Hilariously though, one fan suggested that this was all part of an elaborate, long-term WWE storyline that'd see Evans buddy up with The Undertaker after he raised her from the grave. Another stated that SmackDown Women's Champ Bayley must've been bored at the airport and needed something to keep her entertained.

Evans' Wiki page has since been fixed, and the erroneous info has been marked as "vandalism". Again, she's very much still amongst the living.

Thank God for that.
