WWE announced late Monday night that a WWE developmental talent who had not been on NXT television tested positive for COVID-19 after attending the NXT television tapings last Tuesday as a fan.
As noted, WWE used actual fans at Monday’s television tapings for the first time since the outbreak of the coronavirus.
Dave Meltzer and Bryan Alvarez noted on Wrestling Observer Radio that fans were not allowed to wear masks in the crowd. The fans were told not to come if they were wearing masks.
Also, the fans and wrestlers at the taping were unaware of the positive COVID-19 test.
