Wrestling insiders have claimed there has been an outbreak of viral meningitis on the roster who travel with Monday Night Raw.

Former WWE Champion Bray Wyatt, his real-life brother Bo Dallas, and ring announcer JoJo Offerman have all been noticeably absent form the show.

They are all reported to be suffering from the infection which attacks the protective membranes around the brain and spinal cord.

Viral versions of the condition can easily spread through sneezing, coughing and close physical contact.

It is claimed “other” wrestlers may also be suffering with the infection, with potential impacts on Sunday night’s pay-per-view show TLC.

Insider Ryan Satin, who runs Wrestling Sheet, posted on Twitter: "Hearing this viral meningitis scare on the Raw roster is very real and could definitely affect the TLC card.”

Meanwhile, WWE analyst Justin LaBar confirmed Bray, Bo and JoJo were all suffering with viral meningitis.

Bray had been due to fight Finn Balor at TLC – which is named after the match-type Tables Ladders and Chairs.

Anonymous tipster account Pro Wrestling Votes – which has recently broken a number of insider stories – also backed up reports of a viral outbreak.

The account tweeted: "Bray, Bo and JoJo have been off TV due to an illness. I will not report personal details, however that is the reason.

"I am hearing other Superstars may indeed be suffering from the same illness, and it may drastically impact Sunday's PPV event.”

PWInsider reported Bo has been sent home, while Bray and JoJo are still on the road but have been kept separate of the main roster.

This is understood to try and prevent any further spread of the infection.

Bray and JoJo were revealed to be dating after the Eater of Worlds’ wife filed for divorce, claiming he had cheated on her with the ring announcer.

TLC is on at 1am in the UK and is set to be headlined by a five-on-three handicap match featuring The Shield vs The Miztourage.

Japanese wrestler Asuka will also make her main roster debut on the show, after leaving development brand NXT without ever being defeated for her NXT Women’s Championship.

It is also rumoured The Undertaker could make a WWE appearance in coming weeks – emerging from apparent retirement at Wrestlemania 33.
