Backstage Reactions To WWE Talent Traveling Again

 Following Gary Cassidy's report that WWE talent were instructed to travel, Fightful reached out to numerous wrestlers in the company. Unanimously, the reception was that of groans and frustration, with many thinking that the decision to do this after the company knew of another outbreak was a poor one. One top wrestler said that they've not seen much from WWE to instill confidence that it would get any better on the road. Every talent we've spoke to misses live audiences, but have also expressed concerns to us about the realities of traveling. 

Triple H noted yesterday that he didn't think WWE would be traveling again with fans for a while, but we can confirm several wrestlers were told to prepare for it

What a stupid decision, if that’s the case.

YOUNG BIBBY

What?? So what is the point of traveling? LOL

YOUNG BIBBY

I have some telling me they might turn other venues into the thunderdome now. woof

Fightful Select

But I don’t know if they can extend the thunderdome, because of the Orlando Magic.

YOUNG BIBBY

Another option would be to do the ThunderDome through December, then for the new year start looking at traveling again. Because you know WWE doesn’t want Royal Rumble and WrestleMaina without fans.

YOUNG BIBBY

Traveling to a potentially different venue? Or traveling outside of Florida? Either way, the wrestlers need to be even more diligent about keeping themselves safe and testing frequently.

I don’t think they should travel just yet, but they really need some capacity of fans (wherever they can find a place to stay). I just can’t stand watching wrestling without fans ,it is to the point that I have stop watching completely both WWE and AEW.

YOUNG BIBBY

Of course they wouldn’t be happy about it,not only has the pandemic not completely disappeared yet but I’m sure they’ve gotten used to the much lighter schedule
