Eddie Kingston Contracted COVID-19, Pulled from NJPW Strong Tapings

Eddie Kingston announced earlier today on Twitter that he recently tested positive for COVID-19. Kingston also announced that he will be unable to make his scheduled appearance for New Japan Pro Wrestling for their NJPW Strong themed Autumn Action tapings this Sunday in Las Vegas, Nevada as a result.

Kingston also stated that he will be taking another test soon to confirm if he actually has COVID or not and to also determine if he will be able to work at next week’s set of AEW Dynamite and Rampage tapings in Albany, New York.

So here we go, got covid won't be able to make Strong this weekend. It fucking sucks going to test again to see if I can make tv this week.
