I'd imagine that releasing the names might constitute a HIPAA violation, which is why you're only seeing people self-report positive tests. No need to make even more of a mess out of this.

Doesn’t stop TMZ from putting everybody business on front streetthey be cutting deals left and right to get info like this on the regular

I've been saying for a while that I think Vince ain't got too long left....you can only get away with so much scumbag shyt when you're in a niche, looked down upon industry like wrestling. The chickens are going to come home to roost, and this might just be the end of Vince, if not the WWE entirely. If people die from this it's a wrap for them.

If one of those friends/family that was at the tapings catches the 'rona and dies because Vince was doing nothing but temperature checks and wouldn't let people wear masks....idk that could lead to a lawsuit that takes it down for good imo. And even if it doesn't, are fans ever going to come back to live shows for that?

Everyone on the roster gonna get a My sacrafice tribute

 

[The Rainmaker]

Sheets are reporting some extra also got the 'rona. Was he in the crowd, on some skit? Dunno.

I mean, WWE is probably being sued by their employees as we speak

From CSS.com
"Have heard multiple stories from people in corporate that they can’t get over how stupidly this was handled from the start, even after they were told their safety was being looked after.

One take I’ve heard was Vince was making outlandish promises on safety before seeing how much it would realistically cost him. Same person said if they had Barrios and Wilson still running the ship they could have had a more concrete plan to stick with that would not include false promises; but because they didn’t, employees are in a position of being capable of suing for breaking those promises and putting them and their families’ lives at risk.

Another corporate employee who has been traveling to and from Florida had a panic attack when this all broke midday last week because they were forced to quarantine instead of going home to not risk spreading infection. They’ve added so much mental strain to their staff that it’s highly likely they will also be joining the potential suit.

Lastly, word has now gotten around that not only is construction still going on at their new HQ (trucks have been spotted taking away demo waste weekly), but word of mouth has spread that executives are in line to get bonus checks. People who are having survivor’s remorse are furious their colleagues were let go and their workload drastically increased, on top of budget being tight for testing, but bonus checks are still getting written.

Will be interesting to see how much more comes to light with so many employees being vocal about disappointment with the company."

So him wanting to be cheap and save money on safety is potentially costing folks their lives.....This has literally cost someone their life before

WWE is, as of this morning, slated to move forward with taping TV today for tonight's Smackdown and this Monday's episode of Raw. The plan is to start taping at 12 PM EST. They will also tape tomorrow at the WWE Performance Center.

The tapings are taking place despite the company continuing to receive positive COVID-19 test results. We are told the number has risen since yesterday and there is concern about everyone at every level of the company who was at the PC.

One conversation among WWE wrestlers over the last few days is disbelief towards those in the locker room who have been out socially at bars and gatherings and posting on social media in the wake of everything that has gone on since the company began informing them of COVID-19 positives.
