Clash of the Champions 33 - The Results

Mike Tenay guests on commentary for the next match.

Dean Malenko almost beats Rey Mysterio, Jr. for the WCW World Cruiserweight Championship, but Rey puts his foot on the rope as the ref counts to three. When the ref realizes his mistake and tells Malenko that the match is still going, Mysterio leaps onto Malenko and gets him with a victory roll to retain the WCW World Cruiserweight Championship.

V.K. Wallstreet beats "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan after Duggan gets the referee caught up in the roll of wrist tape while twirling it around his fist and Wallstreet presses Duggan to the mat.

"Mean" Gene Okerlund interviews The Nasty Boys (Jerry Sags and Brian Knobbs). They're here to fight and that's what they're going to do. They say that their loyalties lie within themselves, and they're ready to smash some heads for the tag team titles, regardless of who wins it in tonight's tag team triangle match.

"Mean" Gene Okerlund says that an interview with The Outsiders (Hall and Nash) can be heard on the WCW Hotline tonight.

"Macho Man" Randy Savage fails to show up for his match against Meng. "Mean" Gene Okerlund heads to the ring with a microphone and Okerlund tells referee Nick Patrick that Savage is not here due to the head injury he sustained from "Hollywood" Hulk Hogan on Nitro. Men beats "Macho Man" Randy Savage by forfeit.

"Mean" Gene Okerlund interviews The Dungeon of Doom (The Taskmaster, Meng, The Barbarian, Hugh Morrus, Jimmy Hart). The Taskmaster says he doesn't "Macho Man" Randy Savage and that he's hit people with chair throughout his career. He also says he did not praise "Hollywood" Hulk Hogan for the last year and a half and that he told it like it was. Okerlund admits to pushing the Hulkamania bandwagon, but says something in Hogan definitely snapped. Jimmy Hart then says that The Dungeon is the strongest force in the WCW as The Taskmaster talks about "The Crippler" Chris Benoit and Braun the Leprachaun runs around and snarls outside of the ring.

Madusa beats Bull Nakano after Sonny Onoo accidentally kicks Nakano in the kidney off the apron during retaliation against Madusa for hitting him with a top rope cross body.

"Mean" Gene Okerlund nterviews Woman, Miss Elizabeth and "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair. Flair says it's the Nature Boy, it's the girls, it's the Horsemen and it's the New World Order. Names don't change, and that he and "Hollywood" Hulk Hogan just change the date and the year, and the attitude is the same: to want to be at the top. He says Hogan has changed the outfit, but he hasn't changed the make-up. He tells Nash that if he jumps on him, he'll deal with Steve "Mongo" McMichael. He tells Hall if he jumps on him, he gets "The Enforcer" Arn Anderson. If anybody from the nWo wants to find out what it's like to play with them, they can come on do. He then tells Hogan doesn't beat up Anderson because he can't, and neither can Hogan.

Fall Brawl is coming to pay-per-view September 15th, with tickets going on sale tomorrow morning.

Eddie Guerrero beats Diamond Dallas Page to win the BattleBowl ring. Page then shakes Eddie's hand after the match, then puts Eddie in the Diamond Cutter before throwing the referee out of the ring and hitting Eddie with another Diamond CUtter agian. Chavo Guerrero, Jr. shows up, but is unable to stop Page from hitting Eddie with a third Diamond Cutter, this time from the top rope. A member of medical staff tends to Eddie, and we then see "Hollywood" Hulk Hogan grabbing "Mean" Gene Okerlund by the suit collar at the top of the entrance ramp. Hogan confronts Okerlund for speaking negatively about him, and tells him to watch his back. Hogan says he will shut all the chumps up as Flair couldn't lace his boots in all of his glory and can never be nWo Champion. He says only one man can be the "Hollywood" Hulk Hogan of wrestling, and says there are certain levels of excellence in life. He will prove that Flair will be called "The stupid little man who couldn't get the job done," then tells Okerlund to stay out of his face.

It is announced that WCW Pro will move to Sundays at 5:05 PM Eastern on TBS starting August 25th, and that WCW Main Event will be moved to Saturday evenings starting August 24th.

The Giant beats "The Crippler" Chris Benoit with an impressive choke slam where he lifts Benoit right over his own head before Woman can pull Benoit's vest off.

Sting and Lex Luger beat Harlem Heat (Booker T and Stevie Ray) and The Steiner Brothers (Rick and Scott Steiner) by disqualification - and Harlem Heat retain the WCW World Tag Team Championships - after Sting and Luger are attacked outside of the ring by The Outsiders (Hall and Nash). Scott Steiner is angry upon coming close to the tag titles only to lose them. "Mean" Gene Okerlund confronts referee Nick Patrick, who declares that even though The Outsiders never got in the ring, they still interfered in the match by attacking Sting and Luger on the floor. He says that the ability to see two things at one time makes a referee great, and if the tape needs to be reviewed, then let it be reviewed. As for recent actions from him in the last week and a half, he insists that he is WCW all the way.

"The Nature Boy" Ric Flair beats "Hollywood" Hulk Hogan by disqualification - and Hogan retains the WCW World Heavyweight Championship - after Hogan yanks the referee down to the math during Flair's Figure Four Leg Lock, allowing The Outsiders (Hall and Nash) to attack Flair alongside Hogan. The Outsiders and Hogan are soon met by the rest of The Four Hoursemen ("The Enforcer" Arn Anderson, "The Crippler" Chris Benoit, Steve "Mongo" McMichael) as well as Sting and Luger, forcing The New World Order (Hall, Nash, Hogan) to retreat.
