• BREAKING NEWS: A WWE Employee Tested Positive For COVID-19

Fightful is reporting that a WWE employee got tested positive for COVID-19 and WWE wrestlers have been informed about it.

Fightful redacted the name of the employee in their report. WWE sent the following memo to their wrestlers (signed off by Triple H):

“We have just been notified that (name redacted) was diagnosed with COVID-19. WWE doctors spoke with (redacted) this morning and reported (they) last had contact with anyone at WWE on March 26 at the Performance Center. As you know, (redacted) is not an in-ring performer and we believe this matter is low-risk to you per the following chronology:

Those of you who were potentially exposed would be cleared for travel by the evening of Thursday, April 9 at the latest, since the last possible exposure to any WWE talent personnel should have been at least 14 days prior.”

WWE issued the following statement regarding this story:

“A WWE employee has tested positive for COVID-19. We believe this matter is low risk to WWE talent and staff, as the individual and a roommate became symptomatic in the days following exposure to two people working in acute health care on the evening of March 26, after WWE’s TV production on a closed set was already complete.

The employee had no contact with anyone from WWE since being exposed to those two individuals, is doing well, and made a complete recovery.”
