Summary

Solomonster reviews WWE Smackdown and AEW Rampage for June 3rd, including CM Punk announcing he's injured and will need surgery, which also takes him out of the match with Hiroshi Tanahashi at Forbidden Door. AEW will now crown an interim AEW World champion and we discuss the potential candidates for the spot, including MJF and how this could tie in well with his ongoing war with Tony Khan. This is a chance for AEW to take a negative and turn it into a major positive. Meanwhile, Smackdown was much ado about nothing with just one match announced for the Hell in a Cell PPV this Sunday.

And frankly, I think there's still a lot of confusion.
