Wilson, and Bird and Rapinoe — who are self-isolating together at their home in Seattle — all filmed their duties remotely, but hinted that technology will make them appear to be together.
When asked by PEOPLE why viewers should tune-in after months without any actual sports to watch, Rapinoe teased, "First of all, let’s be honest: We know you’re not watching anything else."
She continued, "You haven’t seen sports stars that are normally in the position of entertaining you at this time of year."
Rapinoe, 34, said she hopes that viewers will "watch us and join us and share in this moment with us."
The show will still feature the presentation of top awards like the Arthur Ashe Award for Courage, the Pat Tillman Award for Service, and the Jimmy V Award for Perseverance, but the winners' acceptance speeches will be done a little differently.
The 2020 ESPYS will air June 21 on ESPN at 9 p.m. EST.
