In another tweet that followed, he confirmed that he did in fact not catch the virus at an All Elite Wrestling Event:
“Yes after not going to do my AEW work for nearly 3 months. Tony Khan knows I’m high risk and has gone above and beyond all expectations trying to keep everyone safe. Pretty sure I got it from family or when I was out shopping.”
