The next day everyone in WWE was tested and future tapings were postponed until this Friday.<\/p>\n<p>WWE replied to PWTorch&#8217;s request for a public comment on the reports of multiple COVID-19 positive tests earlier tonight with this pithy statement: \u201cWWE will continue COVID-19 testing of its talent, production crew and employees in advance of TV productions for the foreseeable future,\u201d read the statement.<\/p>\n<p>WWE had not done all-talent\/staff testing until last Tuesday, after the positive COVID-19 test result came in the day before.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Man.
