Uncensored 1996 was the second Uncensored event produced by World Championship Wrestling which took place on 21st April 1996

## Background

Eric Bischoff announced months earlier that this C show would take place at the same time as Wrestlemania 12, the biggest WWF show of the year as he wanted to prove why WWF is a dying company and wanted to destroy them after the WWF Screwjob

The main match heading into the show is Scott Hall, Diesel and a third mystery man vs 3 men who are willing to fight for WCW. The main event was scheduled to be Sting vs Ric Flair for the WCW Heaviweight Championship but at Nitro 100 the most shocking WCW moment ever happened as WWF's MITB holder Razor Ramon and Intercontinental Champion Diesel debuted and attacked Sting and Lex Luger, Ramon cashed in his WWF MITB contract as he defeated Sting to become WCW Heaviweight champion. Hall and Nash renamed themselves and announced they were invading WCW and taking it over, they demanded Eric Bischoff to give them a match against the 3 biggest WCW talent because they had a third man that was invading with them that wouldn't be revealed until Uncensored, Bischoff gave them the match against 3 men who would be willing to fight for WCW but still got powerbombed on the stage. This was hyped up hugely during this week as Nash and Hall went to Late Night with David Letterman to hype up the third man, during the week rumors started coming in that Vince would be suing WCW because they used WWF's trademarked gimmicks. Bischoff went on the news to address this with a neck brace which brought even more attention as he threatened to sue Vince himself because Vince broke the WAR contract rules that the shows always had to end in a draw, his words were "Sue me you son of a bitch and I will sue you for contract defamation and for sending 2 of your men to my show". Last night, Hall and Nash invaded the ESPN NFL draft as they continued talking about the third man, hype is huge for this show but mostly because of this match and the whole mystery surrounding the third man

Barry Windham wanted a spot in the Four Horsemen so Ric Flair put member Lex Luger up to test as he faced Windham at Bash at the Beach. Luger mostly dominated the match but Windham rolled him up to get a spot in the Four Horsemen, Flair came out and low blowed Windham saying they didn't accept cheap wins so Luger remained in the 4HM. At Fall Brawl, Windham made his return as he beat up Flair, he couldn't wait until Halloween Havoc and challenged him to a match in an episode of Nitro which was one of the greatest Nitro matches ever but Flair took the win. Windham wanted another match but Flair said the only way he'd get another match is if he put his career on the line so Windham decided to do it, Windham managed to defeat Flair at Halloween Havoc to end the feud for now. After Sting joined Four Horsemen, Windham called him out on it but Sting said 4HM had changed to better people, after a few weeks of battling with them Windham gained respect of Ric Flair but he didn't manage to beat Sting for the WCW Heaviweight title. Windham made a heartbreaking announcment as he said that since he couldn't win the WCW title, he feels like he has done everything for this company and tonight will be his final match, he chose Ric Flair as his final opponent. Flair didn't want to do it but Windham riled him up.

Eddie Guerrero defeated Jeff Jarrett at Nitro 100 to become United States champion, La Parka was feuding with Jarrett for a while so he will be involved in tonight's triple threat match for the title

Dean Malenko defeated Jushin Liger to end his 567 day title reign at Nitro 100, he will face Liger's protege Psicosis tonight

At Starrcade 1995, Bobby Eaton turned on Lord Regal during the war games match between HWs and CWs, Eaton said he was always a CW to heart and he always felt disrespected ever since Regal kept talking crap about the cruiserweights and wanted to fight him tonight

## Details

* It's clear that Flair doesn't wanna fight Windham but Windham is always pissed at this screaming for Flair to do what he has to do, Flair locks Windham in the figure four lock as he screams for pain so he lets him go, Windham can barely get up but with fury tells him to figure four him and end this right now, he starts calling Flair a coward and that his days are over, he's a hasbeen, he's been a coward since the Harley Race days. Flair gets fired up and starts chopping him, he locks in the figure four but Windham refuses to tap, he lets go again and hits him with Windham's finisher: the lariat to end Windham's career

* Hall and Nash also attack Public Enemy after their match
* The WCW guys who have chosen to fight for the company are Randy Savage, Sting and Ric Flair
* Savage, Sting and Flair are getting their asses kicked even in a handicap match as the third man hasn't showed up yet. They possibly injure Sting who has to be carried out and are beating up Savage when HULK HOGAN MAKES HIS BIG RETURN, HE HASN'T BEEN SEEN SINCE STARRCADE 1995. Hall and Nash immediatly leave the ring as Hogan gloats in the cheers one last time and shockingly leg drops Savage, HOGAN IS THE THIRD MAN. He punches the ref as the match ends in a no contest
