Now that WWE has more talent and staffers starting to test positive, we’ve been informed by talent relations not to discuss our illness with anyone besides those we live with that may need to know. We are FORBIDDEN to tell anyone else nor can we come out publicly to make any statements. It was stressed that WWE will take care of any medical treatments, should we need them. In the same breath it was made clear the company would handle the PR and only those that needed to know about our condition would know as HIPAA laws would prevent them from making our names public.

Isn't the false negativity rate of these tests really high, which is why you need two negatives to clear quarantine after testing positive?

It's so stupid. Every time a WWE wrestler gets to take time off the death march they come back looking so much better, but God forbid anyone gets time off to recover their fitness without breaking something.
That, plus you’d think wrestlers would yearn for that “return pop” after a little sabbatical. Instead, the paranoid WWE culture has instilled an irrational fear of “losing your spot” if you’re off TV for a month :(

Gotta give it up to WWE, their clusterfuck booking style finally landed on a hit with "Put Bayley & Sasha on all the shows and have them simultaneously feud with all the other best wrestlers in the company"

It was Bayley and Sasha's original idea with the intro of the tag belts, so of course the company held it off for over a year and only capitalized on it when there was no fan attendance to actually appreciate it

How sad is it people will have to explain to their doctor they got sick because they were in a fake wrestling audience and were told not to wear masks while they cheered a picture of the Undertaker?

CNN: In a rare case of bipartisanship, Republicans and Democrats, State Governors, town mayors and even President Donald Trump came together for a joint press conference today to announce that masks were now mandatory and absolutely, 100% required to help save lives. When questioned why the sudden surge of unity, a tearful Trump explained,"Low Ki said you didn't need to wear one, Jesus Christ.... Low Ki...."

I feel like someone is going to call hypocrite @ being happy for sasha and bayley being on every show but being pissed when Charlotte did it. I'm just happy the women's tag scene is finally getting some action. It's not like Bayley has any real title contenders (solo Nikki Cross who Bayley beat last week doesn't count) and I don't wanna see Bayley vs Sasha right now so I'm okay with them being dicks on every show beating up all the faces and heels.

The fact that they sell branded masks but are not forcing people to wear them on camera is honestly out of character for WWE. I can't tell if this is Vince not wanting to look weak to something you can't see or if Dunn or another high up thinks it is a hoax.

Vince probably thinks it's bad optics while "Trying to entertain the fans as an escape from reality" and Dunn is so much of a kiss rear end he agrees

I don't think it's hypocrisy to dislike the Corbinesque awful booking and story work surrounding Charlotte. Charlotte is capable of doing the work and the promos but she has turned into Chhharlotte and we're all sick of that. Entitled heels who whine for title shots then get them sucks. Cool friend heels who exclaim how heavy their belts are? Good.

I've got a pocket full of cheese🧀, and a garden full of trees🌴.


This is not getting enough attention.

Not only do they have policies in place that actively put people in harms way. Not only do they refuse to change anything when it is proven that people put in harms way get harmed. They shame and bully the people that they themselves have allowed to be harmed, and forbid them from saying anything that might make them look bad.

You'll notice I didn't mention COVID-19 in that, because this is not about the disease. The disease has just shown us, again,, how little WWE gives a gently caress about the people who work for it. And how hypocritical/weaselly/evil they are prepared to be in public just to save a little bit of face, or so Vince can feel he has "won".

WWE is worse poopy, it is bucket of diarrhea sloppy.

Also, reading it again, that first paragraph could be applied to pretty much everything the WWE puts the wrestlers through. From forcing long overnight drives on tired athletes nursing injuries, (drives that they have to pay for themselves), to the day in day out grind of ruining knees on the house show circuit, even to the soul destroying way of "don't say what you want to say and don't say it in an entertaining way, instead memorize these lines and recite them exactly how we tell you. Pause in teh wrong place and you're fired" they do promos.
