Rest in peace Mae Young.
Also I hate to be "That guy" but we all knew this was coming soon. Still sad...

When she does pass, I predict a torrent of horribly insensitive jokes, which will of course be largely WWE's fault for how they chose to use her the last several years.

Thats honestly what I was waiting for, her career would be remember as an old lady going through tables. Not to mention other atrocities.

poor Mae, She truly loved the business and while her more recent appearances have been more comical than anything you could see how much fun she was having he whole time. An awesome woman, wrestler and icon

She is a pioneer in women wrestling and should be remembered for that. But(I really hate to be that guy sometimes) she will likely be remember as the horny old lady who fucked a 300lbs black guy and gave birth to a hand. I'm sure WWE will have a divas match to remember her with( a really bad divas match but a divas match).
*But hey at least WWE won't have a diva say she is in hell*

Side Note- I do think next weeks Raw should be dedicated to her. They had a Raw for Randy Savage, a Smackdown for Eddie(and maybe a Raw) and a Smackdown for Chris Benoit(I'm sure WWE would like to pretend this one didn't happen) and imo Mae deserves a show just for her more than Eddie and Chris.

I don't like Mae, personally, but I can see a show being dedicated to her. I expect it and she deserves it.

Maybe they could do an episode similar to old school raw but have it be and old school telecast just like it was and make it as close to being old as possible to give it that feel for the era. It may be different for people watching it live but it was always like that. Have a dress code too. Just make it like it was when Mae Young wrestled.

WWE will probably hold a show in her honor. And if they do it's likely to use the video from above(It's on their official youtube)
