In the video, you can hear Mojo Rawley saying that the test is easy and people shouldn't be freaking out about it.

WWE's recent tapings

It has been reported that WWE allowed actual fans to attend the recent tapings. The fans were made to sign a waiver that stated WWE was not to be held liable if they were to contract the virus. During the taping, it has been rumored that WWE officials did not want any of the fans to wear masks.

COVID-19 has hit the sporting industry hard. Even though WWE is able to go ahead with its weekly shows and PPVs, it has been using Developmental Talent to replace the audience in its these shows. WWE hasn't had an actual audience during their shows since March due to the Coronavirus pandemic.

This year saw WrestleMania take place in an empty arena for the first time. WWE has had three PPVs without a LIVE audience but it has resorted to making cinematic matches a mainstay and that has garnered a lot of appreciation from the WWE Universe.
