Fightful and Jon Alba reported today that multiple wrestlers who were at the September 9 AEW Dynamite taping tested positive for COVID-19 in the following two weeks.
Alba wrote on Twitter:
“Over the last few months, #AEW has by far had the most extensive COVID-19 protocols among any wrestling companies that chose to run during the pandemic. The conditions of how or where the virus was transmitted is not entirely clear at this time. Hoping everyone affected is OK. It’s entirely plausible talent were kept off this week’s show for precautionary reasons, and didn’t necessarily test positive. But we can report there were multiple positive cases in the past couple of weeks involving talent who were present at tapings earlier this month.”
