Not Really An Invasion...More Like A Civil War, 2 August 2002
Author: Big Movie Fan from England

Invasion 2001 was a pretty good wrestling event. The theme was that WCW had invaded the WWF and at this event the WWF would be fighting for it's existence. Of course, everyone knew that the WWF owned WCW in reality. Civil war is probably a better term than Invasion for this PPV.

The matches were very good. I found the referee's match very amusing. I also liked the bra and panties match between Lita/Trish Stratus and Torrie Wilson/Stacy Keibler.

Rob Van Dam and Jeff Hardy also had a great match which was almost as good as the main event itself.

The main event was brilliant-and it had a surprise ending (wrestling is only exciting when there are surprises). Austin, Angle, The Undertaker, Chris Jericho and Kane had a wild match with Rhyno, the Dudleyz, DDP and Booker T. It was a brilliant way to end the show.
