WWE Co-CEO Stephanie McMahon shared a message for all the families and also for the rest of the nation.

When faced with adversity 21 years ago, we banded together as a nation to support & surround one another in love. May we, & future generations, never forget those men, women & children who lost their lives that day & the families they were taken from too early. #NeverForget911

The 14-time WWE Champion and Chief Content Officer Triple H also paid respects to the families and wrote, "We will never forget those we lost".

We will #NeverForget those we lost on this day 21 years ago.
Remember them. Honor them.

WWE Superstar Zelina Vega shared a heartfelt message remembering the loss of her father during this tragedy.

Sometimes it’s still hard to believe 9/11 happened. My brother found the posters my mom was putting up & giving to firefighters to help find him. That little drawing was mine. Still blows my mind & breaks my heart.

I fight thru the pain bc I know you’re with me. I love you Dad. https://t.co/qIWFlXrytm

Vega also made a request for people who were not directly affected by the tragic incident.

WWE commentator Byron Saxton shared a message mentioning his visit to the 9/11 memorial in Washington and the memorial's tribute to the horrific incident.

So thankful to have had the opportunity to visit the Spirit of America 9/11 Memorial in Cashmere, WA before #WWEWenatchee.

An honorable tribute to a horrific day which will never be forgotten. https://t.co/DM6YT6dwo2

WWE hosted the first mass-gathering post 9/11

After the horrific incident, all mass gatherings, including sporting events and conferences, were canceled, ensuring public safety.

Two days later, on September 13th, 2001, WWE held its first major event since the attack. WWE SmackDown took place in Houston, Texas at the Compaq Center.

Last year, on September 11, a special documentary on the SmackDown show aired on Peacock TV.

For @VinceMcMahon, the feeling of kicking off that first #SmackDown following the September 11 terror attacks is almost indescribable.

#NeverForget: WWE Returns After 9/11 premieres tomorrow on @peacockTV in the U.S., @WWENetwork everywhere else, and WWE on YouTube. https://t.co/jmmsXEFCtl

We at Sportskeeda mourn the loss of all the families and wish them to stay strong during these tough times.
