I mean feels a bit douchey posting something behind a paywall. Basically long and short of it: PC testing that was 2 weekly it no longer mandatory. Main roster have also said weekly testing is no longer needed. Several within the company are not happy due to how short they are due to covid.

I'm sure there's a bright side, the internet is just always so hard on WWE. AEW would be praised for allowing others to have access to more tests right 8D

Sad thing is that you aren't wrong.

Okay so if they don't give a fuck why did they pull those starts from the recent house shows making them abysmal to watch? What a joke.

Yeah, I seem to recall the number of positive cases only went up once we started widespread testing.

WWE talents were reportedly told by company officials that COVID-19 testing is no longer required.

WWE is currently dealing with several positive COVID-19 tests on the main roster, which have sidelined RAW and SmackDown Superstars, but Fightful Select now reports that the company is taking measures the opposite way within WWE NXT.

It was noted that WWE Performance Center talents were told this past weekend that they no longer have to undergo the twice-weekly COVID-19 testing that was previously mandatory.

It was also revealed that WWE main roster talents received an e-mail informing them that weekly coronavirus testing is not required. There’s no word on if there is a vaccine stipulation added to that ruling, but we will keep you updated.

The new COVID testing ruling did not sit well with several people within WWE because of how the company is already short-handed this week due to several positive tests.
So testing is no longer mandatory but doesn't specify whether it's still available as an option or other important details.

Vince McMahon is an idiot for this move. This proves that he still doesn't give a damn about his staff, people in the office and his stars.
