This problem can’t be overlooked, as the entire project depends on repairing and eliminating rust.

The COVID-19 pandemic has practically shut down all sports except for World Wrestling Entertainment, which has continued staging matches without an audience, leaving us sports fans with nothing much to cheer for.
