Just two days after the September 11th attacks, WWE was the first entity to hold a mass public gathering in the United States. In this edition of "The Extreme Life of Matt Hardy," Matt revisits that episode of Smackdown, giving insight on Vince McMahon's decision to run, how talent truly felt about working, and whether or not they regretted doing so.
