The Associated Press came out with a story on Wednesday saying that after fact checking, they found that the Big Show was a victim of an online death hoax. There was false information spreading online about the Big Show dying in a car accident, but has been now cleared up.

From the Associated Press:
“SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — A story reported by a blog called “WWE” that claimed professional wrestling star “Big Show” had died in a car accident is false.
Chris Bellitti, a spokesman for World Wrestling Entertainment, Inc., (WWE) said Tuesday that the “Big Show,” whose real name is Paul Donald Wight II, is alive and well. He also said the blog site is not affiliated with the legitimate WWE site.
On Dec. 10, the short, poorly written blurb claimed the star had been admitted to a hospital and died”
Big Show tweeted a photo of himself on December 26th, looking better than ever:

Sad that some folks try to fool people like this. Fortunately the story wasn’t very big and didn’t get any main stream attention. The Big Show also looks JACKED and better than ever. Looking forward to seeing him on WWE TV in the near future!
