WCW’s acting commissioner Kevin Nash made the executive decision to crown a new WCW World Heavyweight Champion on the January 24 edition of Monday Nitro. “Big Sexy” decreed that if Sid Vicious could defeat the Harris Brothers in a match early on in the night, then the commissioner would face Sid himself for the gold. Sid was not only victorious against the Harris Brothers, but also Nash, ultimately earning WCW’s top prize.
