This week, Vince McMahon. A lot of Vince. the Wall Street Journal reports on Vince and his NDAs, stepping down except still running creative, Vince and Oliver Luck. Jeff Hardy's drunk driving arrest, Dave Hebner passes away, Tony Khan blows off media opportunities, and Mutoh wants five final matches. Then the LAZY RIVER OF WRESTLING CRITICISM: Is Forbidden Door a supercard? What's the story told? And a lot of meandering, but Jeff watched Starrcade 85 this week so he liked something.

Note: This episode aired live on Thursday, June 16, before the news of Vince McMahon stepping down as WWE CEO and Stephanie McMahon becoming interim CEO. This also aired before Keiji Mutoh announced several of his retirement matches.

A massive week of wrestling news on this week's Flagship Podcast.

We'll lead off, of course, with the massive news of WWE's board of directors investigating Vince McMahon's alleged $3M hush payment to a former employee, the discovery of additional NDAs and what this all means for the future of McMahon in WWE, WWE itself, how it related to Stephanie McMahon's leave of absence and so much more.

We'll also tackle the reports that Sasha Banks may have been granted her release from WWE, Jeff Hardy's recent DUI and what it means for his future in wrestling and AEW plus a review and recap of NJPW Dominion, G1 Climax participants and CyberFight Festival 2022 including Nakajima knocking out Endo.

Neil goes on a journey through the hottest scene in European wrestling by taking a deep dive in Hungarian graps! Hear all about Hungarian Championship Wrestling Day of the Glory 2022, and discover some underground Hungarian wrestling with Passion Pro. Who needs RevPro and Progress, eh?

Now that we are past Forbidden Door, All Elite Wrestling is in the process of building up the card for All In. The show might not have the same cache as the first rendition at Wembley Stadium last year, but the card looks significantly stronger. The card is led by the two big title matches, as Bryan Danielson and Mariah May will take on Swerve Strickland and Timeless Toni Storm after winning the Owen Hart Memorial Tournament. 

May's turn is one of the more memorable turns in recent memory and Storm's selling of the vicious attack took it to another level. Hosts Tyler and Fred discuss that and more from a very newsworthy Dynamite.

Please like, share, and subscribe so Forbidden Door is a great show like its predecessors.

Theme: Natural Duality by Joseph McDade

This week we ask who wants to be a main eventer, as CM Punk and Cody go down with injuries and Roman won't be on yet another PPV. Then the LAZY RIVER OF WRESTLING CRITICISM: Good Wrestling and Bad Storytelling, NXT having a good upside but bad storytelling, AEW having bad storytelling. Sense a theme?

The Flagship is back this week with a special guest as Erin Quinn (@MsErinQuinn) joins Rich in place of the vacationing Joe.

On deck for the show are discussions on a wild week of wrestling news, including CM Punk’s injury, more details on Stephanie McMahon’s leave of absence, a WWE Hell in a Cell review, Cody Rhodes’ working through a torn pec, and more.

We’ll also dive briefly into NJPW, including a look at the NJPW Dominion card, what we know so far for AEWxNJPW Forbidden Door then conclude with Rich & Erin Recommend Matches To Each Other!

The cage has lifted, a title has changed hands, and a double turn is going down like a fart in church with your Thunder Boys this week. With Uncensored in the rear view, we are left with a show of wildly varying quality to tangle with:

* Snack Talk: Festival Edition

*An utterly brilliant Cruiserweight Title match

*A new low for the B Team

*More million dollar gimmicks for Dave's Deathmatch fed.

We'll be back in two weeks, in the meantime follow us on Twitter ( http://twitter.com/wcwthunderpod ) to keep up to date with us, go to our linktree ( https://linktr.ee/WCWThunderPod ) to find all the ways you can listen to or follow us, and if you want a hell of a lot more Dave & Lee in your podcast diet, subscribe to our brand new Patreon ( http://patreon.com/wcwthunderpod )
