Kayla Braxton Addresses Rumors Surrounding Her Two Positive COVID-19 Tests

Submitted by Matt Boone on


Kayla Braxton took to social media on Monday morning to set the record straight regarding her two positive COVID-19 tests.

The WWE broadcast team member announced via Twitter back in June that she had tested positive for the Coronavirus for a second time.

Since then, a number of rumors and insensitive comments have been made on social media and in various online pro wrestling communities.

On Monday, Braxton cleared the air with the following statement released on her Twitter page.

Setting the record straight because some of you have been super unkind:

I tested positive for covid late March. I notified my company and I left and quarantined for 4 weeks. I then was released and tested negative. I still wore a mask and took all necessary precautions but the once again, I tested positive a month later.

This time I had no symptoms but still, I left work and self quarantined for 14 days. Last night you were all tweeting super insensitive things regarding my health. A couple of you even said you thought I had died and maybe that woulda been for the best. Guys. This isn't okay.

When I said don't be stupid like me I meant, don't make the same mistake by thinking you can't test positive twice. I did everything I could. And this can happen to you. Moral to the story is: stop bullying people online, especially for something that concerns health. It's so gross and you should be embarrassed.

Let's all be better. This is a hard time for everyone and we're experiencing a state of the world we've never experienced before. Build each other up. Help people. Just be good to people. And to all of you who have lent your support, I've seen you. And thank you. We need more people like you.
