While WWE now has the green light to broadcast live matches, there won't be an audience inside the venue to cheer on the wrestlers.
"We are producing content on a closed set with only essential personnel in attendance following appropriate guidelines while taking additional precautions to ensure the health and wellness of our performers and staff," WWE said in its statement.The guidelines established by DeSantis's office could also provide a path for other sports leagues such as Major League Baseball to resume operations in Florida with event locations closed to the public.
Formerly known as World Wrestling Entertainment, WWE is big moneymaker in Florida and it has some clout in Washington too. Vince McMahon is the majority owner of WWE. His wife Linda, the former head of the federal Small Business Administration in the Trump Administration, is now in charge of a pro-Trump Super PAC. And DeSantis, who has been
BS 😶
' 'essential business.' '. Is it *essential* that underpaid actors throw themselves into the meat grinder, to be turned into profits...?
Surely you jest. Dispicable Florida.
It is Florida, after all.
Stupid move.
As it should be
Really? Did the McMahon family contribute to any election recently? Will you check out that?
Oh Florida. 🙄
What a bunch of idiots, thankfully I don’t live on the States...
🤣
QuidProQuo
Bet they donated $$$$ to DeSantis’ campaign
🤦♂️
They have just gone bonkers, they're solidifying their own demise, the virus doesn't recognize race, political party, ethnicity or social economic status. This is just unbelievable.
Who'd a guessed homoerotic shows would be considered an essential business?
So play fighting is considered essential;but many “red blooded ‘Merican” jobs aren’t?!!...ok...just like a lot going on w/our country right now-y’all T-rumpers” cool w/this?!! I think if Obama was POTUS,& said this about NBA,orNFL pickups would be heading to DC!!justus
In Florida that is essential.
Meth is a hell of a drug.
Lol
Floridaman
They will obviously be Stupid Robot Fighting then.
NBC deemed unessntial news
I would like to do a shoppin' trip to the states or order things from it like KPOP albums & makeup but you all have to stop being so damn stupid and take COVID19 seriously so life can go back to normal faster. You are inconveniencing everyone around u, including healthcare
Of course, Comedy Gymnastics is a necessity for 12yr Olds.
Never has a truer description of Florida existed.
$$$ drives the Trump posse. If lives get in the way, $$$ wins.
Governor must be being paid off

Trump’s corruption
People can cook, bake, work out, read, make crafts, garden in their backyard, do jumping jacks. They don’t need this bullshit to keep them entertained.
Yeah they believe in bigfoot as well.
Good afternoon everyone, except Florida.
Maybe more than PPFA planned parenthood = murderers of innocent children!
Well...may be a few less trump supporters voting in november.
This is “Floridah” Red State, for sure. WWE is all about making money, it’s hardly essential during Covid-19 social distancing restrictions? I guess FL would rather expose thousands of WWE spectators to Covid-19 in various Stadiums rather than protect its population. Sad!
Makes sense to me. DeSantis is so smart.
Dang Florida 🤦🙏
MeetThePress What is 'essential' is the WWE owner's promise of big campaign donations to Florida Gov. DeSantis and other Republicans.
TedrosResign
Why?
No it isn’t.

Sweet hell , he’s going to kill us all.

Another reason no to ever move to that state!
Fits right in MSM.
Desantis is letting his stupid show again.
Is not
Good Luck to you all on that. Covid 19
jaredataylor Souds about right for such a dumb state. Can we sell Florida? I mean the French sold us Louisiana. Someone’s gotta be willing to take it off our hands.
'Professional wrestling' an essential business! This is only possible in a Ron de Santis Florida. How are they keeping the wrestlers safe? Are they wearing masks? How do they keep their distance while wrestling? Have they tools to prolong their arms?
Really Hhhmmm dont think so
Working is essential period
DarkSideOfRing can’t wait for outcome of this decision to become an episode 😉
I'm a Florida resident GovRonDeSantis is realDonaldTrump twin. I'm tired of the politics GovRonDeSantis is and will continue to sacrifice lifes in Florida for his and Trump personal agenda! I'm embarrassed ,sad and fearful that I live here!
All because Linda McMahnon is the CEO and in Trumps re-election committee! Look it up!!
Floridaman
Essential to who exactly?
WTF?!!!!!
No mamen !
Omg I can not 🤦🤦🤦
If everybody in Florida died, the average IQ of America would rise by 10 points.
Of course
Because they are stupid.
lol beta male libturds are mad Americans are still going to work. WereAllEssential
You’re kidding
Of course, it is.
florida, again.
GOP most corrupt political party! And stupid people still vote for them! Hilarious Florida!
Governor on NJ is walking around with armed bodyguard but closes guns shops...another weird move.
Open Outcry Crystal Meth Futures Pit
Sounds about right
Pot stores are essential services in California and Washington. Very weird. We have a virus that seems to attack the respiratory system and California and Washington encourages folks to smoke! Yikes.
Follow that money!!
GOPCorruptionOverCountry GOPGenocide they don’t care about people only money. corruption CorruptAndIncompetantGOP
They probably believe it is real, also.
Only if it's Dusty Rhodes vs. Ted DiBiase.
I'm so glad other news outlets are on this, wrestling Twitter has been pissed about it all weekend. But when you are riding the Trump train and give him millions of dollars you can do what you want and put dozens of your own wrestlers and non wrestlers at risk
Duh. It's considered skilled labor there.
FL Governor is totally inept
Let the whole state infect itself.
Welcome to America.
Is Florida.
Trump's posse.
Is this the same state that they made gun sales essential I guess the bullet is the cure
Linda McMahon told GovRonDeSantis she’d spend 18.5 million in Florida SuperPac! He’s bought and paid for!!
We really need to get rid of Florida
As long as the keep their performers healthy and all staff. Why not.
Everything trump does has a political motive
Potatos gon’ potate...Florida is gon’ floridate...
Well it's true, GovRonDeSantis is the 2nd stupidest person in the country. Tied with the gov of S. Dakota.
Every business is essential.
Coincidence Vince McMahon's wife works for Trump
