Kris & David are joined by Matt Griffin (ACTION! Wrestling) to discuss the week that was March 28-April 3, 2002. We talk about Ring of Honor’s 2nd ever show and everything surrounding that plus the other indies in the United States. We also talk about Toshiaki Kawada losing the Triple Crown thanks to injury as well as the rest of the Japanese scene. Also discussed is the WCW racism lawsuit, all the Lucha Libre tidbits, plus the first RAW after the Brand Extension. A really solid show so check it out!!!
