The Yearly Purge, Is this OK?

MaxxedOut S02E06 — The Yearly Purge of Talent

The post-WrestleMania fallout hits hard—and this year’s WWE talent purge might be one of the most controversial yet.

Joe Luna and Lopez break down the biggest releases, the real business behind them, and why this “yearly purge” continues to divide fans.

From Kairi Sane’s shocking release mid-storyline to Zelina Vega going off in real time, this episode dives into both the corporate reality and the human side of WWE cuts.

We also debate the headline controversy:

Did Ric Flair get banned—or did he bring it on himself?

Plus:

- The collapse of the Wyatt Sicks

- Bloodline chaos heating up before Backlash

- Hogan documentary reactions

- Wrestling birthdays and nostalgia

This is one of those episodes where business meets emotion—and neither side looks clean.
