Mae Young, 90-year-old wrestling icon, in grave condition

World Wresting Entertainment legend Mae Young is gravely ill and has been under hospice care for the past few months, People magazine reports.

News regarding the 90-year-old female wrestling pioneer surfaced Friday after wrestling columnist Mike Mooneyham, of the Charleston, S.C. Post and Courier, incorrectly reported Thursday that Young had died after being taken off life support. The publication has already corrected the post.

Known as The Amazing Mae Young, she joined the WWE at the age of 15. Young was crowned "Miss Royal Rumble" in 2000 at the age of 77 and eight years later she became the third woman to ever be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame.
