Some WWE superstars have decided not to work the shows due to health concerns over coronavirus, but there are others who are not able to appear due to the various restrictions, like Robert Roode.
Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer provided some update on the absence of the former NXT Champion and revealed the reason why he hasn’t been featured on WWE programming recently.
Per Meltzer, both Roode and the Singh Brothers live in Canada and they haven’t been used by the company for their shows in recent weeks because they are not able to get into the United States due to the current travel bans.
It’s worth mentioning here that Brock Lesnar lives in Canada as well but he was able to make an appearance for the WrestleMania 36 event from the Performance Center.
Regarding Lesnar’s appearance at the event, it was noted that WWE was able to ‘pull strings’ to make it work so he can compete against Drew McIntyre at the Show Of Shows.
For those who don’t know, both Roman Reigns and Sami Zayn have pulled out of the tapings due to coronavirus concerns and latest reports reveal that the WWE management is not very happy with Zayn’s decision.
