Said this shit months ago, wrestling should been stopped or minimized Both companies been playing with fire and you can't keep dodging that forever This happens with WWE. Moxley is in self quarantine. You've got them still doing shows. Its so idiotic and so ridiculously carny. This Covid thing just continues to make wrestling look more primitive as it goes on. And it's still going on. We're still in the first wave.

They're taping in a state that doesn't care...when I leave my house I see a ton of people that don't care. So many places are so wide open like nothing happened, I see them ignoring this.

It feels like every event in the past two weeks has seemingly been dedicated to showing just how much sleazy carny bulls*** is still fundamental to wrestling. Its pretty damning when in a news cycle that has numerous stories of assaults, abuses of power, and bullying that WWE corporate is still in active competition for the most thoughtless and actively harmful actions in the business.

And it's still going on. We're still in the first wave. Right. Keep in mind even with sports coming back more players are testing positive for Covid with seasons coming back next month but they are putting together gameplans to try to make this work and still a month away before they can do anything Wrestling has been playing with fire from jump. WWE is getting positive test. Wrestlers in AEW is around people who are testing positive for COVID. Both companies affect each other since they have spouses, boyfriends and girlfriends etc they live with on opposite shows. Don't know how many times this can be said to chill the f*** out As I said months ago, just because Florida was opening up doesn't mean you need to rush your ass there and now a few weeks later they are seeing the results of a state running fast and loose

Trust me, we’d survive without WWE. Stop f***ing filming, you idiots. They have thousand of hours of old wrestling footage they could use, there is no good reason for this to continue to whatsoever.

They have QT Marshall's barn still. Those episodes were pretty lifeless though, if you take out Jericho. Not after one his friends had Covid and he was in contact Oh damn, I'm literally 1 hour behind on the news and this is happening. At this point you have to wonder why this is the length they have gone for fake fighting.

Because wrestling is a carny business and they will keep pushing the envelope until they can't anymore Dana White proved he was the King of Carny by getting a f****ing island for his fighters to fight on. Wrestling isn't far behind

Wrestling isn't far behind There also has to be a bit of responsibility on the networks potentially. Not much but the fact any of them could have stepped in at any time and said "Hey, if someone dies, this comes back to us too, stop filming" probably either says a lot about a) the contracts they have or b) the willingness to take anything original right now not filmed on Zoom.

They can’t show a whole lot of the AE on TV but imagine they restarted from ‘93 and threw in a PPV match or two?

Agreed However, they aren't going to turn down cheap content. This is the cheapest of the cheap right now. They are just paying for overhead and if they can flip a dollar thanks to getting ads they will do so. We'd be kidding ourselves if we think they actually care about the wellbeing of the wrestlers

Again, this only reinforces my doubts that the other sports won't be able to finish their seasons. Everyone is trying when they probably shouldn't. It's not just a WWE thing or Wrestling thing.

Again, all depends on the location and precautions taken. Not that I don't agree with you but it's better right now for New Zealand, Germany and (from next week) Ireland to try and start sports again then the United Kingdom, Brazil or the US. ESPECIALLY with numbers going up constantly and none of those governments even giving an inch of a damn.

Not surprising. Unlike the sports coming back next month, I’m almost certain the WWE took absolutely no precautions in terms of distancing, masks, testing, etc. They kept filming during the first peak of the virus, and haven’t stopped with the most recent surge.
Vince being a scumbag who only cares about himself and his money is nothing new. If you believe in karma, Vince is due for a huge dose of it someday.

It isn't just wrestling. EVERYBODY is being stupid. Sports in general are opening even as more and more players test positive. States are opening and then getting hit with higher spikes in weeks. It's a problem with the country in general.
