Press release from WCW Owner Eric Bischoff, 7:00AM PST

World Championship Wrestling extends our prayers and condolences to the families and loved ones of the victims of yesterday’s heinous and horrific terrorist attacks on our country. We stand with all Americans in saying that we will persevere in these coming difficult days and this nation will not be intimidated by anyone. We have been encouraged that we must try to go back to our daily lives as quickly and as normal as possible. Next Monday's show will be our small part in honoring and remembering those affected by yesterday's events. We must never forget September 11.

--Nothing can compare, at least in ‘sports entertainment’, to Vince’s ultra-patriotic speech in Houston for Smackdown on September 12, 2001. There will also be little advancement in storylines on the next Nitro. I will have one more Nitro next week before Fall Brawl in Oakland on the last Sunday of the month.
