Our weekly Chairshot Classics WCW PPV series continues with Uncensored ’95!

Open: As the commentators review the card, they’re told that there is live footage from the first contest, so we cut to that.

Match #1 is a King Of The Road Match: The Blacktop Bully vs. ‘The Natural’ Dustin Rhodes
The winner of this match will be the first to blow the horn on the back of the 18 wheeler. Both men are caged in the back of the flatbed, which is filled with bails of hay and bars. Bully hits a low blow to stop Rhodes’ first attempt and he sends The Natural into the steel. Rhodes is dumped to the middle of the bed and he staggers around as we get helicopter footage of the truck. Lots of wide shots as the two brawl. Bully is close but here comes Rhodes with a fence post and he drives it into the mid section. Rhodes with some rights and stomps.

Rhodes delivers a piledriver and uses the car for a double leg kick. Rhodes dumps a bail of hay on the back of Bully’s head. Blacktop finds a rope and he uses it to choke Rhodes. Dustin comes back with a bucket of an unidentified liquid. He tries to make a climb, but the momentum of the truck takes him down. Belly to back suplex by Bully, the truck’s momentum sends both men into the side. Rhodes has a foreign object and he pounds on Bully. Rhodes can’t pull off a scoop slam due to the truck’s momentum. Bully makes a climb and he’s cut off. Many wide shots make it difficult to call the action. Rhodes has an animal trough and he nails Bully with it.

The truck comes to a complete stop, halted by a church bus. Microwave interference cuts the feed temporarily. We come back to Bully hanging on to the top, but Dustin works over his ankle. They fight up on top of the cage, exchanging rights and doing whatever they can. Dustin is knocked down to the flatbed, but Bully slips down as well. Bully pulls Dustin down but misses with a clothesline and tumbles over one of the steel bars. The Bully leaps with a double ax handle, he makes the climb for the horn, Dustin gives chase, both men reaching for it. Dustin rakes Bully’s eyes but the slowing of the truck pulls Rhodes back. Blacktop Bully yanks Dustin back to the flatbed, blows the truck horn, and mercifully, this one is done.
Winner: The Blacktop Bully

• EA’s Take: The definition of ridiculous and it was only made more ridiculous as the feed occasionally got interrupted and the truck got stopped. Lots of wide shots so you couldn’t see a lot of the action, which was limited at best anyway, especially because it’s challenging to keep your balance on the back of a moving vehicle. As I’ve said before, both men were fired for blading during this match and it goes down as one of the most infamously ‘WCW’ moments in wrestling history. If I was Dustin, Goldust would have sounded like a step up to me too.

Backstage: Mike Tenay is joined at this time by WCW World Television Champion Arn Anderson, Col. Robert Parker & Meng. Double A says the King of the Road result was just the first in a clean sweep for the Studd Stable tonight. The hour glass has turned and time is running out for Johnny B. Badd to recapture his manhood. A DDT will put his lights out in just a little bit. The $75,000 it cost Col. Robert Parker to get Blacktop Bully out of jail, because it’s paying dividends. In terms of the upcoming martial arts match, Meng has Duggan shaking like a leaf, and he’s going to pay the price for putting his hands on the manager. Hacksaw’s crossed eyes are going to be crossed for good soon.

Onoo grabs his fist to stop him, opening up the opportunity for a savate kick by Meng, which helps him pick up the W.
Winner: Meng (Savate Kick)

• EA’s Take: Okay, so we have a ‘Martial Arts Match’ where one competitor uses no martial arts and the other uses just a couple martial arts strikes and holds that are just part of his normal repertoire? Does that mean every Meng bout was ultimately a gimmick match? Well, at least we had a special guest referee who played a confusing role at times? No, that last question mark isn’t a typo.

Backstage: Mike Tenay is joined at this time by Johnny B. Badd and his boxing trainer Roc Finnegan. The Badd Man may be at a disadvantage since someone will be trying to wrestle him while he’s sporting gloves, but this isn’t about boxer vs. wrestler, this is about Badd vs. Anderson. Finnegan says his student is going to knock that stiff out, and Badd tells The Enforcer he’s going to dreamland.

Winner: Johnny B. Badd (TKO/Round 4)

• EA’s Take: Thank sweet baby Jesus this didn’t ACTUALLY go 10 rounds! This match ticked me off, not just because it was boring, but it made wrestling look inferior, particularly in the first two rounds. Anderson sold it as best he could, but it was hard to save this nonsense. I don’t think there’s ever been a case where boxing and wrestling have been fused together and it came out good. Piper/Mr. T, Inoki/Ali, the Brawl For All…I’d hope by our current year (2019) we’ve seen the last of it. I like boxing, more so than MMA, but these just never work.

Backstage: Mike Tenay is joined by ‘Macho Man’ Randy Savage. Tenay asks if Avalanche’s attack on Saturday Night was a wake up call. It is what it is, but just like bucket-head Arn Anderson, Avalanche is going down at the hands of Savage. He’ll take anyone out on the way, so Tenay should wipe the smile off of his face. Ooooh Yea!

Winner: ‘Macho Man’ Randy Savage (Disqualification)

• EA’s Take: It’s Uncensored! There are no disqualifications! Except when there are, apparently. This was a good match between these two and Ric Flair as a woman was pretty funny, just sort of a bizarre ending considering the premise of the show though. But…you know…WCW!
