Millennium Final was a Germany-only professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) event from World Championship Wrestling (WCW). It took place on November 16, 2000 from the Arena Oberhausen in Oberhausen, Germany.[1] The rights to Millennium Final now belong to WWE after their purchase of WCW in 2001. It is one of the few pay-per-view events not made available for streaming on the WWE Network service.[2][3] However, Sting's European Cup defense against Kevin Nash is part of the Sting: The Icon Defined collection on WWE Network.
Storylines
The event featured wrestlers from pre-existing scripted feuds and storylines. Wrestlers portrayed villains, heroes, or less distinguishable characters in the scripted events that built tension and culminated in a wrestling match or series of matches.[4]
