#1. Hope is true: Positive backstage perception of Kevin Owens
After a developmental talent in WWE tested positive for COVID-19, it led to a chain reaction where all Superstars and staff were tested for the first time. Conditions have reportedly improved since, but Kevin Owens is one WWE Superstar who isn't taking a chance.

When asked about people skipping tapings, Sean Ross Sapp in a Q&A revealed that Owens opted out of working the tapings but there's no heat backstage in WWE on him for it:

Q: Do you think more guys and girls will choose to skip the upcoming tapings now?
SRS: Well, Kevin Owens did. From what I understand, it was completely amicable. From what I understand he told them he wasn't going to come in on whenever the next RAW tapings were this week, and they didn't pressure him to do so.
Everybody there likes Kevin. Everybody there likes Kevin Owens. I have not heard one person say, 'Man, that Kevin Owens is a ******, that Kevin Owens is hard to deal with.'
A lot of people see him as a good moral gauge and a moral compass, and usually, if he says something is a rough situation, it's probably a rough situation. He's a pretty grounded guy. He's been showing up to work. He's been trying to make it work.
We hope this is true because Kevin Owens doesn't deserve to lose his push. He's been on a good roll since moving to WWE RAW and we hope to see that continue.
