WWE will be continuing drive-thru testing COVID-19 testing today at the Performance Center in Orlando, FL.
According to Fightful Select (subscription required), there is concern that results may not be back in time ahead of Wednesday’s NXT Great American Bash tapings.
WWE talent arrived “extremely early” to get tested, and the hope is results will be ready tomorrow.
The company sent an internal memo to talent, reminding them of safety measures while inside the Performance Center.
“As a reminder, wearing masks, sanitizing and social distancing will be required at the Performance Center this week and going forward. You’ll be required to wear a mask upon entering and we ask that you adhere to these requirements in order to minimize risks.”
Developmental wrestler Rik Bugez took to Twitter to speak on testing earlier today.
We all get our brains poked to get tested before tapings now. When the test is negative, I feel ok taking my mask off for 10 seconds to convey some emotion for the sake of entertainment. Without facial expression, they might as well have mannequin dummies behind the plexiglass
