Fans will hear a different voice during ring introductions on tonight’s episode of AEW Dynamite because ring announcer Justin Roberts announced on Instagram that he will not be present.
Roberts has revealed that he tested positive for COVID-19. He also posted a photo of the four COVID tests he had. He stated:
“The look when you’re absolutely..positive [sic] you can’t fly to work for a few more days. Social distancing from ‘Dynamite’ tomorrow like it’s 2020, look forward to watching on TBS 8/7PM and getting back next week!”
