Twitter Rumor: Update 3/21 per The Rainmaker, WrestleMania being taped

[MushroomX]

Now that you click on the thread title, this is the rumor.

While they would never admit it, you think WrestleMania might be taped?

 

[The Rainmaker]

Good idea, we don't really know how bad things can get.

Also, since there are no crowds, there shouldn't be any spoilers.

And if there are spoilers, it's easier to find the snitch

Return of the @Rarely-Wrong Liggins universe ?

Tape Mania, who gives a fukk. The safer everyone stays the better IMO. Roman is one person who has a compromised immune system because of the leukemia. If this is what it takes to put on a show just do it.

 

[OH SOHH TRILL]

If one person in the company is positive, game will be over (don’t ask how). It would almost be malpractice for them not to get as many shows in the bag as possible.

Hahahaha

 

[Pinyapplesuckas]

So stupid to put them through this.

I get the pretaping though. All of Mania should be taped in advance so everyone doesn't have to be there at the same time. Hypothetically they could film matches all over the country to avoid travel altogether.

 

[THE 101]

I mean...why not.

They should at least tape a few weeks of Raw.

Once one wrestler catches the virus it's a wrap for them. They will have to shut everything down.

This is the part that’s insane
A roster that size and staff that big, to think “once somebody” catches corona is naive. It’s more like “once someone is tested” because I’m sure as shyt a lot of those healthy guys are asymptomatic

 

[Metal Face]

give it up already Vince

start the off season

PWInsider is saying they're gonna tape Mania too

Unless there is a last minute change forced upon them, PWInsider.com has confirmed with multiple sources that WWE intends to tape content all the way through Wrestlemania over the next several days. The current WWE taping schedule looks to be:

Today - Friday Night Smackdown for 2/27 and 4/3

Sunday 3/22 - Taping content in some form for future WWE NXT episodes.

Monday 3/23 and Tuesday 3/24 - Monday Night Raw episodes for 3/23 and 3/30

Wednesday 3/25 and Thursday 3/26 - Wrestlemania 36 Nights One and Two

WWE is also scheduled to tape material for Wrestlemania at other "closed sets" so there may be additional taping dates beyond what is shot at the WWE Performance Center.

So, if all that takes place as scheduled, for the first time, Vince McMahon (and everyone else who works the show) would be able to watch Wrestlemania in the comfort of their own home.

Vince not allowing talent to watching AEW Dynamite when they taping WrestleMania.

Makes sense. The last thing that Vince would want right now is somebody in that locker room to test positive or start showing symptoms the day before the event. What they do after wrestlemania seems to be a question mark though .

Maybe it will come in handy that they have basically the entire history of the industry in the United States from the 50s-2001 digitized and ready for re-broadcast.

Vince always staying ahead of the game.
