Key backstage personnel missing from Raw, WWE stops testing

PWInsider.com is reporting that Raw last night did not have the presence of key people such as Vince McMahon, Kevin Dunn, Bruce Prichard, Michael Hayes, and Adam Pearce, with the backstage area running pretty much on skeleton crew.

With several talent testing positive for coronavirus and those who were around them forced into quarantine, it was already going to be a big effort to do last night’s broadcast, let alone with several key individuals missing as well.

Head of Talent Relations John Laurinaitis and creative writer Ed Koskey ran the show in their absence.

Speaking of coronavirus, Fightful Wrestling added to the story that WWE will no longer do mandatory testing for their Superstars and with the new CDC guidelines published yesterday, it will take only five days of quarantine for those who tested positive instead of 10, making Day 1 more doable now.
