The main event was for the WCW World Heavyweight Championship between Scott Steiner, Sid Vicious, Jeff Jarrett, and a mystery man that turned out to be Animal in a Four Corners match. The WCW champion heading into Sin was Scott Steiner, who retained the title after pinning Sid Vicious, who had fractured his leg after attempting an aerial attack.[2] The main match on the undercard was between Totally Buff (Lex Luger and Buff Bagwell) and Goldberg and DeWayne Bruce, in a match where if Goldberg lost, he would be (kayfabe) forced to leave WCW. Totally Buff won the match when Lex Luger pinned Goldberg after a Buff Blockbuster from Bagwell with Goldberg on Luger's shoulders. As a result, Goldberg was forced to leave WCW.[3] The rights to WCW Sin have belonged to the World Wrestling Federation (WWF; now WWE) since March 2001.
In 2014, all WCW pay-per-views were made available on the WWE Network.
