Stephanie McMahon was recently interviewed by TampaBay.com. During the interview, she was asked about the global coronavirus epidemic, which is dominating new cycles. She was asked how it might impact Wrestlemania 36 in Tampa Bay.
Here is what Stephanie had to say:
“The health and safety of not only our fan base, but also our superstars, really does come first.
We don’t want to put anyone in a bad situation ever, regardless of the circumstance. Those are not risks worth taking.”
WWE’s executive vice president of special events, John Saboor, had this to say:
“Given the number of live events that (WWE) does, it’s constantly monitoring global events. There are active and ongoing discussions at play internally, like there are in any sector of American business, and certainly families as a whole. So I think those will continue.”
The executive director of the Tampa Bay Sports Commission, Rob Higgins, added the following:
“You’ve got to be nimble, and you’ve got to be ready. Thirty-six days is a long time, so it’s hard to predict. I think we just continue to information gather as much as possible, so that we are as prepared as possible.”
Stephanie McMahon finished off by saying:
“And if necessary, enact those measures.”
