Put some stank on it!

I got this expression from the movie 'Liar Liar'.

Fretcher, the lawyer is persuading his client to file a lawsuit against her husband,
and this is what he said.

------------------------------------
And how does he repay you ?
By dragging you through a painful litigation process !
No, no, no, no ! This can't happen !
With all due respect, this isn't about you and Mr. Cole anymore.
This is about all women.
Where would Tina Turner be right now if she'd rolled over and said,
"Hit me again, lke, and put some stank on it ?"
Rollin' on the river, that's where she'd be.
But she's beyond Thunderdome,
because she decided to send a message.
Wake up, sisters !
There's no-o-o-o-o-o... such thing as a weaker sex !
--------------------------------------------

Here is the clip of it.

Now, the phrases I'd like to know the meaning of are

1. put some stank on it

To get some better understanding of the lines,
I made my own research to realize that
Teena Turner, once a famous singer, was severely beaten by her husband, Ike,
and it seems like the lawyer is encouraging her to stand up against what
she thinks is unfair and unacceptable.

Put some stank on it?
What could that possibly be?

And the other puzzling one is

'She is beyond Thunderdome.'
Is it like a metaphor meaning Teena Turner escaped from her husband
and she's staying in a safe place?
Is it common to say someone is beyond Thunderdome?

I'd really appreciate any comment from you.
