As a wrestling fan, I watched the shows they put on with no fans and the only people in the "arena" were the commentators, referees, cameramen and the wrestlers....and of course anyone else that works backstage and it was weird and I did not like it at first, but that is probably it is something that has never been done.

I also heard that Vince McMahon was present for every taping. They also had to make changes to the card as some wrestlers did get sick (don't think they got the CV-19, but they played it safe) and one (Roman Reigns) was pulled because he just beat cancer again and did not want to risk his life.

Anyway, I watched with my normal group of friends via Skype Video so we could keep our tradition of getting together for the major WWE shows and it was actually a lot of fun and I heard that the WWE Network saw a bigger uptick in subs this weekend, which means a lot of people did end up watching it. I actually am looking forward to tonight's Day 2 of the event and we are all getting together again via Skype to finish what we started.

You may know the answer to this then... Were the wrestlers living elsewhere and coming to performance center for tapings?
