No Contest is a 1995 Canadian–American action thriller film directed by Paul Lynch and written by Robert C. Cooper. The movie stars Shannon Tweed, Robert Davi, Roddy Piper, and Andrew Dice Clay. It was released on March 2, 1995, and was followed by the sequel No Contest II in 1997.[1][2]
During a nationally televised beauty pageant, terrorists led by Raymond Ulysses (Andrew Dice Clay) seize control of the venue and take the contestants and crew hostage, seeking ransom and publicity. Sharon Bell (Shannon Tweed), the program's host and a former model, uses her wits and unexpected combat skills to resist and outmaneuver the hijackers, working against the clock to free the hostages and foil the terrorists' plans.[3]
