In a recent report by PWInsider on Wednesday, more WWE talent and staff members have tested positive for COVID-19. The talents have not been identified but other staff members and talent have been contacted and asked to get tested.
WWE officials were still expecting to go forward with all WWE live events and tapings in America as of Wednesday afternoon, but there has been a lot of phone calls being made and “a lot of running around” with one WWE source stating that they are dealing with the same issues that Broadway and other sports leagues have had in recent weeks.
There have been no schedule changes so far, but WWE are working on alternative plans for live events just in case a talent is unable to perform this weekend. WWE would fill up undercard spots with NXT talent if necessary in a worst case scenario.
WWE are holding their annual post-Christmas Holiday Tour and they hope that if wrestlers are unable to perform on this tour then the Day 1 PPV event will be far enough away that wrestlers will be cleared to perform at that event.
