Topics of discussion include: 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.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.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.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.
