KSDK) - WWE wrestling personality Vince McMahon is not dead. Viewers across the country saw what appeared to be an explosion blowing up McMahon's limousine Monday night.
The WWE then told the public on its website that firefighters were called and the FBI was investigating.
None of that is true, according to the Wilkes Barre Times-Leader, the newspaper of record where the event was staged.
The newspaper reports that firefighters were never called to the scene, and that the WWE actually got permits for the explosions from the city ahead of time. The explosion was actually recorded Sunday night, then shown as though it were live Monday night.

The WWE continued to claim on its website Tuesday afternoon that McMahon was "presumed dead," and officials did not return calls of the Wilkes Barre Times-Leader.
