The memo went on to say that anyone exposed to this individual were cleared to travel again by April 9th. They are adhering to a 14 day isolation period.

Those of you who were potentially exposed would be cleared for travel by the evening of Thursday, April 9 at the latest, since the last possible exposure to any WWE talent personnel should have been at least 14 days prior.

WWE has neither confirmed or denied this positive test. It cannot be verified due to them not commenting on the matter, but WWE Superstars have reportedly received this memo.
