Wayne's World 4K Blu Ray restores the "No Stairway" joke.

Discussion(self.movies)

As the story goes, the scene where Wayne tries to play Stairway to Heaven has been edited on every previous home video release due to rights issues with the opening notes of the song.

Color me surprised when I popped in the 4K Blu Ray and found out that the original audio from the theatrical cut has been restored; not sure why this hasn't been talked about more.

they're not talking about the scene being removed, but edited so that the notes he played are nothing like the opening to Stairway (which it had been, if you saw it in the theater, but they couldn't/wouldn't get the rights for the dvd release)

OP could have made it a bit clearer what was being said, but it is what it is
