In a video on his official Instagram account, WWE NXT Cruiserweight Champion KUSHIDA revealed that he has been off television in recent weeks as he tested positive for COVID-19.

“I hope everyone is okay. Three weeks ago, I was not available for my title match on NXT TV, I tested positive for COVID-19, my family also tested positive. Fortunately, everyone is okay, my wife and I are fully vaccinated, but we still got the virus.

Fortunately, the vaccine has given us immunity, but we experienced some symptoms, we have very low energy and I lost my sense of smell and taste. We are recovering, everyone is feeling better now, the pandemic isn’t over, please stay safe, I will see you in the ring soon.”
