Kris & David are joined by Matt Griffin (ACTION Wrestling) & Phil Schneider (Segunda Caida) this week to discuss the week that was September 12-18, 2001. We talk about September 11th and how that affected us personally as well as the wrestling business, plus Dave Meltzer’s thoughts on the feelings of the nation at the time in a powerful piece. We then discuss how the WWF handled this situation and the infamous 9/13 live Smackdown from Houston with all the behind the scenes info you would want. We also go into the rest of the week in the WWF, New Japan’s wild G-1 World Tournament, K-1’s tax issues, and the awesomeness of 2001 CMLL, before Phil joins us to discuss the United States indie scene including Low-Ki vs. Red tearing it up on the first wrestling show in NYC since 9/11, Jeff G. Bailey taking over Wildside, post-WCW startup madness, and Stevie Ray on Ricki Lake. A fantastic show and one of our best ever so don’t miss it!!!!
