Tony Deppen Announces COVID-19 Test Result After GCW Show

As previously reported, GCW recently held a live event with an actual crowd in attendance, with huge concerns that majority of the talents as well as the fans will get infected with COVID-19 as the venue where the show took place has a huge number of fans in attendance as well as talents in the locker rooms.

AEW Star Joey Janela took to Twitter following the show and issued a statement on a number of those who tested positive for COVID-19, but did mention that the wrestlers and referees have been tested based on the company guidelines and he will make sure everyone has tested negative before wrestling on a GCW show.

Top Independent Star Tony Deppen would take to social media following the show as well and announce that he tested positive for COVID-19 after appearing on GCW’s The Collective Joey Janela’s Spring Break 4 and EFFY’s Big Gay Brunch Events.

Stars such as Cabana Man Dan, AC Mack, and Dan The Dad also worked at The Collective and have since announced their positive COVID-19 test results.

Janela would take to Twitter once again and note that 85% of the wrestlers who worked that weekend have gotten their test results back and are doing okay.

You can check out the tweets below:

I’ve been by myself for the last week, so half through, before I get another one.

I’m not bummed about much over it, other than I actually felt like death. However, I feel like shit on a personal level, because this is forcing my wife and I to cancel our baby shower.

And out of everything; that is the hardest thing for me to accept.

If you’re not get tested, or lying about your results you can kindly fall off a bridge.

Also 85% of the wrestlers who wrestled at Collective have gotten their results back and are ok, I’m sure the rest of the ones waiting will receive theirs this morning or afternoon.
