WWE sent Steve Cutler home for testing positive in a COVID-19 test, but that wasn’t what reportedly made Vince McMahon so upset. The report was that McMahon was livid at Cutler for going to a New Year’s Eve party after The Chairman made promises to people like Roman Reigns, Goldberg, and others that WWE and their talent were doing everything possible to keep a safe environment.

Deonna Purrazzo also admitted to testing positive for COVID-19 along with Cutler. She defeated Taya Valkyrie at Hard To Kill on January 16th. The exact timeline of her positive test was not revealed, but the positive tests are said to have been in early January.

I love pro wrestling and hate BS. These two things drive me. Years of experience in writing, journalism, and digging exclusive insider info for Ringside News. Worked in finance before realizing pro wrestling journalism made much less sense. Pro beachballs at pro wrestling shows, pro dives if someone catches, anti bullies, olives, and pineapples on pizza.
