WCW Uncensored 1997 - The Results

Dean Malenko beats Eddie Guerrero in a no-disqualification match to win the WCW United States Heavyweight Championship. During the match, The Outsiders (Kevin Nash and Scott Nash) and Syxx are kneeling behind someone that they have just attacked, and it is quickly confirmed that the man lying prone is Rick Steiner. Later on in the match, Rick Steiner is placed on a stretcher and taken to the hospital on an ambulance. Near the end, Syxx shows up with his video camera to steal the United States Heavyweight Champiosnhip, but Eddie catches him and stops him by dodging his video camera and takes the belt away from him. Eddie tries to use the belt as a weapon, but Malenko smacks Eddie with the video camera and gets the win.

"Mean" Gene Okerlund announces that a WCW Superstar is gone, and that we can find out who it is and why on the WCW Hotline. He then interviews "Rowdy" Roddy Piper, who says that every day of his life is uncensored, and today is no different. He has to go through eight other men to get "Hollywood" Hulk Hogan in a cage, but he's going through it because he lives metal, he eats metal and he's got metal in his hip. He says that "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair and "The Enforcer" Arn Anderson are both gone, as is Rick Steiner. Jeff Jarrett, Steve "Mongo" McMichael, Debra McMichael and "The Crippler" Chris Benoit show up, and say that they are backing up Piper. Jarrett says that Dennis Rodman, Hogan, Kevin Nash and Scott Hall are the marked men, and promise to work together as a unit to back him up. Mongo says he remembers Lex Luger letting him down at War Games, and remembers Hall and Nash hitting hitting him with the spray paint can and branding him, and says he's going to show Chicago who the real icon is. Piper then looks at Benoit and says that Benoit supposedly has veins of cice, but he needs someone who is warmed up and ready for fightin' and bitin' and showing a little razzmatazz. Benoit says there's only one reason Piper became an icon: he made the right decisions. Piper says he can't trust him, and if they're rebels, he likes them. He flips the camera off while trying to put the four fingers up.

Mike Tenay guest on commentary for the next match.

The Ultimate Dragon beats Psychosis.

"Mean" Gene Okerlund plugs the WCW Hotline again, then interviews Diamond Dallas Page. Page says the fans know his name, even if "Macho Man" Randy Savage doesn't. He is here for one reason: to acknowledge the fact that ever since Savage knocked him out from behind, he has refused to even acknowledge his existence. He tells "Macho Man" is he's enough of a savage, htells Savage to snap into a Diamond Cutter. Savage finally shows up with Miss Elizabeth at the commentary table, and apologizes for misjudging him, saying that DDP is cool and that he has respect for him. Savage talks about how he and Elizabeth went through the airport and picked up a magazine of celebrity Playboy nudes, and reveals that his wife Kimberly is the centerfold in the magazine. We see the centerfold with "nWo" covering the naughty bits, and we then see a distraught Kimberly - whom we have not seen in some time - with "nWo" spray painted all over her. When Page tends to her, Savage lays out Page from behind with the spray paint can and spray paints "nWo" on his back as repeatedly tells DDP he is the man. Savage then says he will piledrive Page, and Kimberly lays down on DDP to protect him. Savage and Elizabeth spray paint Kimberly's back, and Elizabeth tells Kimberly should be thrilled as the nWo loves her. Savage insists that DDP is the man and that Kimberly likes him a lot before he and Elizabeth leave.

Glacier beats Mortis when James Vanderburg's attempt to hold Glacier down so Mortis can kick Glacier's head off backfires when Glacier rolls out of the way. Mortis attacks Glacier from behind, then Vandenberg calls out a second man to attack Glacier. The second man takes his mask off, pushes the referee out of the way, gets in the ring and easily lays waste to Glacier. We then find out that this man is none other than former WWF Superstar Adam Bomb.

"Hollywood" Hulk Hogan, Kevin Nash, Scott Hall and "Macho Man" Randy Savage brag about recent events, and say that their success tonight is guaranteed. When asked what Dennis Rodman will be wearing due to Piper wearing a kilt, Hogan says he will have WCW and "Rowdy" Roddy Piper wait, as when Dennis Rodman comes out, it will all stop there.

Harlem Heat (Booker T and Stevie Ray) beat Public Enemy (Johnny Grunge and "Flyboy" Rocco Rock) after Jeff Jarrett and Steve "Mongo" McMichael - Public Enemy's original opponents before they got involved in the main event - show up and Mongo hits Rocco Rock in the back with the steel Halliburton briefcase.

"Mean" Gene Okerlund interviews Scott Steiner, The Giant and Lex Luger. Scott Steiner says that tonight is the first time he has seen his brother Rick Steiner laid out like he was, but he knows his brother and knows that he will be back. He tells the New World Order that they've given him more reason to kick their butts tonight. He tells "Rowdy" Roddy Piper and The Four Horsemen to stay out of his way as he is on a mission. The Giant says it's time for a giant to do a little spring cleaning and clean house in WCW. He knows Rick Steiner well, and says that New World Order will be suplexed, racked and choke slammed left and right. Luger says this is more than just a wrestling match; this is society and anti-establishment trashed spewed by the nWo, as the nWo have trashed them in different ways. He says that the nWo has no honor as honor and tradition are on the line, and that adversity has brought the three of them together. They have never been more prepared for a wrestling match in their careers, and that words are done and that actions much happen.

The New World Order ("Hollywood" Hulk Hogan, "Macho Man" Randy Savage, Kevin Nash, Scott Hall) beat Team WCW (Lex Luger, The Giant, Scott Steiner) and Team Piper ("Rowdy" Roddy Piper, Jeff Jarrett, "The Crippler" Chris Benoit, Steve "Mongo" McMichael) in a 12-man elimination triangle match. During the match, "Rowdy" Roddy Piper is eliminated when Dennis Rodman pulls the top rope down. Hogan pins Luger after the previously-eliminated Savage gets in the ring as the referee is distracted by an eliminated Kevin Nash to spray paint into Luger's eyes. Hogan is the last man standing, and as per match stipulations, the New World Order can vie for any WCW championship anytime and anywhere. Dennis Rodman slaps a downed Luger after the match. Sting rappels down from the rafters after the match, and when The New World Order gets in the ring, Sting attacks them all with the bat and lays them out, revealing that he is not a member of the nWo after all. Hogan tells Sting to put the bat down, and Sting does just that as he dares Sting to get in the ring. Hogan gets in the ring, but he fares no better than his nWo compatriots as the show comes to an end.
