The tournament crowned a new WWF Heavyweight Champion, due to the fact that the title was vacant because Andre beat Hulk Hogan for the belt and surrendered it in order to give it to the Million Dollar Man, but because a surrendered belt cannot be given to anyone--even back to the person who surrendered it.
