NXT Suffers Another Coronavirus Outbreak

It’s been going around. The Coronavirus has caused a lot of problems for WWE over the summer, though nothing is as important as the wrestlers’ health. One of the biggest issues with the virus is how quickly it can spread, which can only be stopped in so many ways. A wrestling locker room is the kind of place that can be rather dangerous for such an issue, and now things have gotten bad again.

The Coronavirus has caused WWE to be constantly in search of a permanent home this year, with several different locations offering them a place to go during the summer. This has been the case for both the main roster shows as well as NXT but nothing has really been able to stick. Things are flaring up again and it might cause several problems in the near future.

According to F4WOnline.com, there has been another outbreak of the Coronavirus at the Performance Center. The outbreak took place on Friday and various wrestlers have been asked to quarantine whether they have tested positive or not. It is not clear which wrestlers or people were affected, but some were scheduled to be part of this week’s Halloween Havoc special in some way. This comes after three WWE locations were all possibly facing government intervention due to being Coronavirus hot spots.

This isn’t going to go well. Check out what was supposed to happen under the right circumstances:

Opinion: As sad as this is, I can’t say I’m even slightly surprised. This is the kind of thing that has happened throughout the year and there is no reason to suggest that it isn’t going to happen all over again. The wrestlers’ health is what matters above all else though, and hopefully everyone is fine after a short time, or even have no symptoms at all. I’m not sure how this is going to work out, but it doesn’t seem likely to get any better in the near future.

What should NXT do about this? Will they ever be shut down? Let us know in the comments below.
