Eric Bischoff would be the first to tell you that WCW sucked at finishes in headline spots on pay-per-view. Uncensored 2000 was a prime example of that; there, Hulk Hogan beat Ric Flair in a main event 'Strap Match' by pinfall. Both guys seemed to forget the rules more than once throughout.

Standard 'Dubya-C-Dubya' bullsh*t there.

Hulk won the match following his trademark leg drop, then touched the fourth corner after the bell like that was the plan all along. During the build, Hogan's enthusiastic, 1980s-style promos about the dangers of the "Yappapi Indian Strap" they were using stumbled dangerously into parody territory.
