I think they are taping 2 weeks in advance and bringing people back to keep doing that process last I remember Man both companies should have just done Montlhy taping but good to see at least some sort of safety done.The least exposure the best AEW had the right idea the first time with taping 4-5 weeks and then seeing what happens but don't know why they feel compelled to live shows now WWE is somewhat on good path but that's hell for the wrestlers to come back every 2 weeks and be exposed. How no has gotten sick is at least a testament to both for keeping shit clean but they playing a dangerous game

Tho my thing is why not tape for 2-3 weeks including the PPV and start looking at Fresh potential start in June While I personally would preferred both companies to shut down last month, AEW was ahead of the game with their tapings so it just seems weird they went from smart thinking to highly questionable

Looks like we're holding steady at four announced matches tonight.
At the very least it's looking like we're getting some matches with some meat and weight to them in terms of match time and the jobber matches might be lessening.

I think I'm sitting this show out. I didn't watch last week and this one is really lacking any matches I especially care about, plus I really just find this whole back to live thing to be really offputting and gross. Doesn't really help that Cody / Janela sounds like it'll be the longest match and I dislike Janela. I'm still watching but I'd be lying if I think this whole thing feels iffy. Wrestling during the pandemic has just felt... off, but without much else on, it's not like I've had much else to do.

Fortunately it seems like whoever it was didn't have it develop into anything more serious.
But I also think it's going to be a matter of time that at least one wrestler in both companies gets it. The frequency of these live taping sessions is only going to increase that risk.

Doesn't really help that Cody / Janela sounds like it'll be the longest match and I dislike Janela. As long as they're safe I don't mind. They've all been safe and mindful so far I just want that to continue What I'm interested in is if this changes ratings at all. Moxley and Hardy being in action might move a needle anyway though. They do have a few weeks to change it to more of a taping schedule as well if they feel they need to since they're taping in advance for next week as well. I again just hope they play it safe if this is the road they decide to travel down.

One confirmed on-screen non-talent that we know of that apparently got better. Everyone has said wrestling and UFC have felt like they've gotten very lucky
