not only did she lose, she tapped out! Asuka was a badass, she ran through everyone, was undefeated for two years or whatever it was, wins the Rumble, gets to WrestleMania and taps out?? she never recovered from that 💯 only Vince can successfully destroy someone's mystique and make it seem like they were nothing.. look at what he did to Shinsuke Nakamura.. Triple H is trying to rebuild him but for years he was just a guy
Numbers 2 & 4 were upsetting, mainly number 4. I and probably many others were led to believe that Asuka would square off against Alexa Bliss at Wrestlemania 34. Everything seemed to go in that direction with her facing Mickie James, then gaining a victory over Nia Jax at Elimination Chamber. The wheels were set in motion until WWE decided to shift gears and go with Alexa vs Nia for the RAW Women's title. Once that happened, I knew the streak would end once she and Charlotte were matched up.
And then she dropped it to Carmella next show anyway…who then proceeded to get two more wins over Asuka *____* They really crapped on Japan that year, along with Shinsuke getting fed to Jinder >.
Honestly I didn't have a problem with Brock Lesnar losing to the Big Show at Survivor Series 2002. I'm glad he lost because it helped him get more over with the people and it was able to lead to the storyline with him and Kurt Angle
@@timothygraham4304 As for Brock Lesnar they did have a direction. They could have made him have undefeated streak and took him to WrestleMania 19 to face to Kurt Angle
It wasn't ending Goldberg's streak that was the problem. He went down in a good manner. The problem was the Finger Poke of Doom a week later that made everything completely meaningless. If Kevin Nash had a long title run while kayfabe ducking Goldberg, it would probably be remembered rather well.
Yeah. It's easy to forget how incredibly popular the Wolfpack were in 1998, because the reunited NWO were such a shitshow in 1999. And Goldberg was an extremely polarizing figure in 1998. A lot of people thought his one-note win streak was sucking all the life out of the WCW world title. On the forums I frequented at the time, there was broad support for Kevin Nash to be the one to end Goldberg's winning streak.
@@daviddalrymple2284 Exactly. the Wolfpack was just as over in WCW as DX 2.0 (The most over version of DX before the nostalgia acts) was in WWF at the time. Nash while not as over as Austin was more over than anyone in WCW. WCW fans were also pretty much tired of Goldberg at the time, to the point when Nash won the crowd went nuts throw how happy they actually were. Then Hogan had to do his power play with the Fingerpoke and Nash complied because it became clear it was that or basically not be allowed on TV anymore since Bischoff wasn't going to let him and Hall back to WWF.
Tatanka was my favorite as a kid, and I was beyond upset when Ludvig Borga squashed him. Then he was scheduled to get a rematch at Royal Rumble 94… so I convinced my mom to buy me a PPV for the first time ever so I could see my hero get some revenge. Then Borga left the company before the match and was replaced by Bam Bam Bigelow. Tatanka never got revenge, and I’m still upset about it. 😂
Well, if it's any consolation? "The Viking" Ludvig Borga, or as we here in Finland know him better as, Tony Halme, ended up largely despised even by his own people. My personal theory is that just 10 years after that match with Tatanka, he was already at the brink of suicide during his relatively fresh political career. And he continued to be so until he actually managed to shoot himself in 2010, at 47 years of age. For much of his later life, he was just a miserable, drug-addled wretch of a human being. I'm sorry that your personal hero lost to him, and his ultimately stupid fucking gimmick of Finnish anti-industrialism, but his record of victories is also not really even worth any remembrance at this point. So all we can really do is laugh together at how pathetic this man actually ended up being.
Goldberg's streak wasn't as overinflated as you think. As of August 1998 on Wrestling Bio's Reliving the War series the actual count is 130 while the one WCW has is 134. He counts house shows and B shows on there too so that's how it's been so close.
I think that whole idea of Goldberg's streak being super overinflated came from revisionist WWE documentaries talking about WCW and most people just run with it.
@@syxodude91 but looking back on it I really don't think it was a bad thing that they ended the streak again the finger point of Doom really messed that all up for everybody. If only Eric bischoff and then Kevin Nash just had the balls to stand up the Hogan and tell him we ain't doing it things your way anymore if he doesn't like it he can always go back to Vince McMahon which I very much highly doubt he would have done at the time
@@loboneiner1034 and that's what was WcW downfall giving Hogan another creative control again. Give him all the money and days off but no control whatsoever.
Plus they wanted to get the belt to Angle for face Brock vs heel Kurt at Mania. Though it could be argued that it would've been better to have a face Kurt win the Rumble and face a heel Brock at Mania.
I watched an interview with Kevin Sullivan (WCW's head of creative at the time). He said his original plan for ending Goldberg's streak was introducing a heel so brutally violent, Turner would ban him from wrestling on weekly TV; he'd be PPV only. Instead, we got shenanigans.
On the Mr. Perfect note, ive never felt that losing a royal rumble as a thing to call a streak ender. Theres 30 people and its not like you can only lose when youve been beaten so much that you cant kick out or made to tap.
Scorpio Sky winning the tag titles always felt to me like AEW being really desperate to have a black guy hold one of their inaugural championships. This was back when the main feature they were touting for their roster was how fresh and diverse it was, and not the fact that they signed everybody (mostly white guys) who failed to get over in WWE.
Better? You are talking about cleverness meanwhile everybody agrees nobody expected him to lose on that night So if the streak being end it isn’t your problem are you really saying it was predictable?

He got concussed pretty early on which hampered the match I'm not the biggest fan of the match or decision either if anything should have retired or built it up for something bigger the next year idk
That Asuka one still sticks in my craw as it's a streak that I experienced being broken in real time. The match was pretty darn good, but it did still feel a bit abrupt to have Charlotte of all people break it. Asuka's had a great run in spite of that, but stuff like that and Charlotte burying Rhea Ripley is one reason I don't much care for Charlotte, in spite of her being a talented wrestler.
gotta be Kobashi's 735 day GHC Heavyweight title run ending to Takeshi Rikio, who's literally only notable in the history of Noah for being the guy to end Kobashi's title run and nothing else. Why they didn't have Kobashi drop it to someone actually notable is beyond me
the worst of the worst is the ending of the streak (in the sense that he did not suffer a defeat CLEAN) is Brock Lesnar since Wrestlemania 30. Lesnar was the most dominated of WWE, and his first defeat clean since WM 30, it's against a old part timer in a terrible match à SS 2016
This is some revisionist history here. Their match at survivor series was not terrible, it was exactly what it should have been and was an amazing subversion of expectations that left everyone in awe. You could argue Brock could have been used for an up and comer, yes, and you'd be right. But that didn't make the loss or the match bad. The royal rumble had so much hype in 2017 because people wanted to see Lesnar and Goldberg again. They wanted it so much that they stuck the belt on Goldberg and let him and Lesnar have their best match together at Mania. We could have gotten better yes, but that didn't make what we got terrible.
@@ShadicRothZz1998 No, this choice is terrible and their match at WM33 was terrible, worst than WM20. And the fact to make à world championship match at WM between two part timer is a big failure
@@aurebat5358 There is no worse Wrestlemania match than their one at 20. Don't be so delusional. Brock and Goldberg got the match they needed and the crowd ate it up. You're blinded by how shit Goldberg got after this run.
@@ShadicRothZz1998 The match of WM20, even if it's not terrible, had a better in-ring than the match of 33 who there is only finisher (worst than WM 34 main event, and this was the one of the worst match of WM33 witch CenaBella/MizMaryse). And the survivor series match is horrible, both the fact of making a squash in the main event and the result. This feud is shit like the run of goldberg after, and the SS match is in the same level than the Goldberg/Fiend. this is how i would have booked this feud : Goldberg make his return at the rumble, have a brawl witch lesnar, and lesnar finds himself weakened and be eliminated by many wrestler like in 2016 when he was eliminated by the Wyatt Family. Like this, Goldberg has a pop and his revenge, and Lesnar stay protected. There is the feud à WM 33 whithout the Universal title, and lesnar wins the match like that an everywhere ball in the center (make more sense than the reality because Oldberg led 2-1). Lesnar become universal champion later during the year, and he got his first defeat clean since WM30 at WM34 by Roman Reigns, and Reigns turn heel and become the tribal chief after WM34
@@ShadicRothZz1998 Yeah. I thought the SS2016 squash was great, but it should have been one and done. (I assumed at the time that Brock was being shoot punished for injuring Randy Orton at Summer Slam).
I agreed with all... except The Fiend. That made sense. The thing that was said about The Fiend was everyone he faced, became their best self. Seth became an underhanded strategist (The Authority Run), Miz going back to the A Lister, Finn becoming the Prince again after losing to a debuting Fiend... The whole Hurt/Heal thing. What... changed about Goldberg at all? Who's Next, spear, Jackhammer, etc., etc. Heard that for 25 years
I thought Asuka's trip to WrestleMania after winning the first women's Royal Rumble was doomed by Ronda showing up at the end. We knew she was going to show up at the event, but by putting it at the end and having her do the "I'm going to WrestleMania" pointing to the sign move, she upstaged Asuka on an historic night. Sure, Ronda was going to Mania, but that moment should have been Asuka's and there was NO reason for her to be there at that time, since she wasn't going to be in the ring with Asuka, Alexa, or Charlotte. Asuka's had a few decent reigns - and was also screwed over to make Becky Two Belts via Charlotte's involvement, but never got the Mania moment she deserves. Maybe next time, finally?
The Perfect/Beefcake one was to set up their match for SummerSlam since Perfect won the I.C. right after Mania but Beefcake had that accident right after that crushed his face so it didn't end up happening.
@DevynM He was, and back in the day it probably was a good way to go. But looking back on it now, and knowing what a piece of shit Hogan tends to be, I'd say probably not.
Well, Goldbergs streak ending wasnt bad in the first place. Nash was a credibly worker and with the help of Hall it was not too damaging to Goldberg - if Nash had an good title run after this. but then Nash made it all a joke by getting beat with the fingerpoke of doom....
Ryan Wrestling Bios is currently counting Bill's streak. The only padding, so far, is counting each elimination in whatever battle royal that happened 2 or 3 eps of reliving the war ago... With that exception, apparently it wasn't as exaggerated. Wheel Sea what happens over on Wrestling Bios soon enough Isn't it super cool that reliving the war is congruent with OSW's last storyline?
If only Eric bischoff and Kevin Nash had the balls to stand up the Hogan and tell him we ain't doing this and if you don't like it you can go someplace else
Mr. Perfect losing his streak to Brutus Beefcake looks bad in hindsight. As someone mentioned, there was a planned run with the intercontinental championship in store for the Barber before that parasailing accident. As far as Perfect winning the WWF Championship, we all know that dropping the belt to him didn't work for Hogan, brother.
what about the Texas Hangmen losing to the Tokyo Bullets? The one tag team with a huge undefeated streak. It was a 2 out of 3 falls match with the stipulation that when a team wins a fall, both men are legal. It went to the 3rd fall. One member of each team got pinned at the same time, but the ref missed the Tokyo Bullet member being pinned.
That Starrcade ending was ridiculous too because Disco Inferno and Bigelow both showed up too. Too much going on there. I cant remember the storyline but Inferno showing up during a big WCW title match?
That loss didnt hurt Perfect at all. He was almost immediately given the IC title which meant something then. Brutus didnt gain much from the win but only because of the life threatening parasailing accident that happened not long after that which prevented a planned ic title run.
These guys really wanted him to become world champion but they do not understand or probably don't want to see the fact that hulk Hogan was the face of the company he was not about to drop a belt to mr. Perfect no matter how ethletic he is
@@attiepollard7847 agreed. And again the IC title was almost like it’s own division around that time. I know it’s kinda whatever now but it meant something then. It was a title for the work horses of the company (with a few exceptions). So as much as I’d like to have seen a Perfect world champ the IC title satisfied me.
Honestly, in hindsight. Brock beating Taker did much more for him, then Roman beating Taker. Besides Taker being out of shape, Roman had the 10 minutes of boos and was still face? If they turned him heel, it could have worked.
She's basically their equivalent to Goldberg, right? Yet the matches are not very good & I don't think the crowd cares either. At least the crowd was invested in Goldberg leading up to his US & WCW Heavyweight championship wins. And he had some good opponents like DDP & Sting that could carry him in matches as well.
Brock Lesnar only losing to 10 opponents is Cap. I don’t know how many he lost too, but I can name 12: John Cena Drew McIntyre Roman Reigns Seth Rollins Goldberg Eddie Guerrero Chris Beniot The Undertaker Bobby Lashley The Big Show Kurt Angle Triple H
I don't know if I'd say Mr Perfect suffered from that loss to Beefer -- I mean, it still shouldn't have happened, but he had a decent IC title run almost immediately afterward. If anything did him in it was that back injury he suffered later that put him on the shelf for so long.
Goldberg had to lose eventually, and losing after getting tazed is a good way to protect him. The follow-up with the Fingerpoke of Doom was what ruined it.
Brock was pinned or submitted by 12 people on TV. Big show Angle Eddie Goldberg Cena Hhh Taker Reigns Rollins Drew Lashley Benoit (survivor series 03 tag match)
Also where we are right now on reliving the war on the best wrestling channel on TH-cam Goldbergs winning streak numbers are correct. We arnt to the end yet though
Among all of these I don't think any broke my heart as much as Asuka's did ... rlly loved her back then - and still do - ( even though I love Charlotte so much as well) When she lost her WM 34 match I just couldn't believe nor understand why ... It hurts to think 'bout to this day ... specially when you realise that after that lose Asuka never became the greatest female start of Wwe that she supposed to become / my heart wants to believe it's gonna change and she'll have that ... but she lost another Mania match again this year and is not even on tv anymore ... just makes me lose hope 💔🤦🏻♀️
For some reason I registered this list as 10 worst endings to wrestleMania undefeated streaks, I was so baffled like whatre they gonna talk about? theyve had that many streaks to be considered worse?? why doesnt Takers count?! But i learned lol
They REALLY leaned into the undefeated streak for Asuka and booked themselves into a corner for the Mixed Match Challenge. Since she was undefeated, she and Miz had to win, even though Braun and Bliss or Roode and Charlotte/Becky (Becky for 1 match) would have been just fine. Second, if you review the mythology of the Fiend, Goldberg beating him actually fits within the mythos. Fiend "beat" Cena in that weird match because of all the changes Cena went through over the years. The Fiend taunted Braun with how Braun used to be and won in the swamp. Both Bryan, Orton and Rollins have had different characters over the years. But, Goldberg has always been Goldberg. The Fiend's usual mind games couldn't work and Goldberg wins. Of course, none of that was ever mentioned or alluded to, but it still fits.
I still think Goldberg should've lost it two months earlier at Halloween Havoc to a red hot DDP. The Diamond Cutter was a move that was a credible finisher and DDP could hit it out of nowhere on anyone. Goldberg hits the Spear, goes for the jackhammer, DDP slides out of jackhammer, his the DC for a 2.9, a little back and forth, Goldberg goes for a Spear, DDP counters into a diamond cutter for the 1, 2, 3.
I've always thought the same thing. The crowd pops HUGE when DDP hit Goldberg with the Diamond Cutter in that match. They were absolutely read to see him go over.
Asuka's loss to Charlotte still hurts, feels like she's just been mid-card fodder ever since. So many great superstars they could've given the win to, maybe even Shana would've been a good shout to get great heat..anyone other than fucking Charlotte.
I get the loss for Jericho, Kid beating Razor on Raw literally propelled Waltman into the spotlight. It was huge when it happened, and as a lifelong wrestling fan, I get why TK tried this again. Didnt come off but it wasnt a bad idea when you look at the history behind it
They should have given Asuka’s streak to someone who could have actually used it. Having Charlotte be the first one to beat her (and HOW Asuka lost was lame as well) was just pointless. It was WWE cramming Charlotte down fan’s throats yet again. Then Charlotte lost clean to Carmella a month later, which made it even more stupid. What gets me about Goldberg’s streak ending was that not only was the finish lame. But it helped NO ONE in the end. Kevin Nash just laid down for Hogan two weeks later and became Hogan’s Lackey again. Goldberg looked like a fool and he never held the WCW World Title again either. And Hogan just looked like an egomaniac once again.
No end to any streak is good. The only one that truly upset me was the undertakers. You can't beat the streak, they really should've let him have it to preserve the essence of the phenom, the supernatural otherworldly figure that was the undertaker. No mortal should've taken his streak
The Goldberg style undefeated streak is alive and well in AEW. In the woman's division they have Jade and in the men's they have Hook. IMO a loss will not damage Jade at all. Hook on the other hand is nothing without winning. Just a skinny Goldberg with Dragonball hair.
I wouldn't consider losing a tag match to be breaking a singles winning streak for Jericho. The wrestlers' win/loss 'records' that AEW quotes are different for singles and tag, so why would it count for this list? Particularly when Charlotte Flair's streak didn't count a tag loss...
I am tired of everyone saying Kevin Nash had help from Scott Hall. There is NO EVIDENCE that was Scott. It was probably some enraged security guard whom Goldberg owed money to and would pay up. The same people who think the security guard was Scott Hall are the same people who think Mr America was Hulk Hogan!
Ryback shouldn't have been in a title match so soon. He was still getting momentum, and I was actually starting to get behind him. But we all knew Punk wasn't losing. He couldn't lose, he was on absolute fire. Ryback could a been a huge star, but they totally killed his momentum with that match.
WWE panicked. Punk was feuding with Cena at the time and Cena suffered a minor injury (I stress minor because he was good to compete at Survivor Series onward that year) but that meant Punk had no PPV opponent for Hell in a Cell since WWE didn't really build any credible faces to book against Punk besides Cena. WWE felt they needed *somebody* so they looked to Ryback and his kayfabe streak and decided he was the best option. Which is never good since it put Ryback into a spot he was too soon for and thus his streak and initial momentum went down the drain.
Asuka undefeated streak ended at WM 34 against Charlotte Flair was one of worst decision ever . Asuka even never recover from that
It had Vince all over it, killing talent he didn’t understand.
Ah yes, because her career really floundered after that...
never won titles or anything
It was the wrong decision, but Asuka has recovered quite well
Chill on the hyperbole fam she definitely recovered and only nerds like us even remember the streak at this point

@@aurebat5358 There is no worse Wrestlemania match than their one at 20. Don't be so delusional. Brock and Goldberg got the match they needed and the crowd ate it up. You're blinded by how shit Goldberg got after this run.
@@ShadicRothZz1998 The match of WM20, even if it's not terrible, had a better in-ring than the match of 33 who there is only finisher (worst than WM 34 main event, and this was the one of the worst match of WM33 witch CenaBella/MizMaryse). And the survivor series match is horrible, both the fact of making a squash in the main event and the result. This feud is shit like the run of goldberg after, and the SS match is in the same level than the Goldberg/Fiend.
this is how i would have booked this feud :
Goldberg make his return at the rumble, have a brawl witch lesnar, and lesnar finds himself weakened and be eliminated by many wrestler like in 2016 when he was eliminated by the Wyatt Family. Like this, Goldberg has a pop and his revenge, and Lesnar stay protected.
There is the feud à WM 33 whithout the Universal title, and lesnar wins the match like that an everywhere ball in the center (make more sense than the reality because Oldberg led 2-1).
Lesnar become universal champion later during the year, and he got his first defeat clean since WM30 at WM34 by Roman Reigns, and Reigns turn heel and become the tribal chief after WM34
@@ShadicRothZz1998 Yeah. I thought the SS2016 squash was great, but it should have been one and done. (I assumed at the time that Brock was being shoot punished for injuring Randy Orton at Summer Slam).
I agreed with all... except The Fiend. That made sense.
The thing that was said about The Fiend was everyone he faced, became their best self. Seth became an underhanded strategist (The Authority Run), Miz going back to the A Lister, Finn becoming the Prince again after losing to a debuting Fiend... The whole Hurt/Heal thing.
What... changed about Goldberg at all? Who's Next, spear, Jackhammer, etc., etc. Heard that for 25 years
I thought Asuka's trip to WrestleMania after winning the first women's Royal Rumble was doomed by Ronda showing up at the end. We knew she was going to show up at the event, but by putting it at the end and having her do the "I'm going to WrestleMania" pointing to the sign move, she upstaged Asuka on an historic night. Sure, Ronda was going to Mania, but that moment should have been Asuka's and there was NO reason for her to be there at that time, since she wasn't going to be in the ring with Asuka, Alexa, or Charlotte. Asuka's had a few decent reigns - and was also screwed over to make Becky Two Belts via Charlotte's involvement, but never got the Mania moment she deserves. Maybe next time, finally?
The Perfect/Beefcake one was to set up their match for SummerSlam since Perfect won the I.C. right after Mania but Beefcake had that accident right after that crushed his face so it didn't end up happening.
So Undertaker's ppv streak didnt count but Charlotte's ppv streak does?
Is there actually a wrestling undefeated streak that ended well? I've been thinking and literally nothing is coming to mind
Closest thing I can think of is probably WALTER's NXT UK title run.
Does Andre losing to Hogan at WM3 count? I think Andre was being billed at undefeated up to that point.
@DevynM He was, and back in the day it probably was a good way to go. But looking back on it now, and knowing what a piece of shit Hogan tends to be, I'd say probably not.
Undefeated streaks rarely end in a way that makes it worthwhile.
Well, Goldbergs streak ending wasnt bad in the first place. Nash was a credibly worker and with the help of Hall it was not too damaging to Goldberg - if Nash had an good title run after this. but then Nash made it all a joke by getting beat with the fingerpoke of doom....
Ryan Wrestling Bios is currently counting Bill's streak. The only padding, so far, is counting each elimination in whatever battle royal that happened 2 or 3 eps of reliving the war ago...
With that exception, apparently it wasn't as exaggerated.
Wheel Sea what happens over on Wrestling Bios soon enough
Isn't it super cool that reliving the war is congruent with OSW's last storyline?
The worst ending ever was Vince coming back to WWE
The act of Goldberg losing the belt isnt horrible, but the finger poke makes it look even worse and basically just insults the fans
If only Eric bischoff and Kevin Nash had the balls to stand up the Hogan and tell him we ain't doing this and if you don't like it you can go someplace else
Mr. Perfect losing his streak to Brutus Beefcake looks bad in hindsight. As someone mentioned, there was a planned run with the intercontinental championship in store for the Barber before that parasailing accident. As far as Perfect winning the WWF Championship, we all know that dropping the belt to him didn't work for Hogan, brother.
“Well and maybe another thing”
Unfortunately, that Paige got lost in the Woods
Crown Prince: "The Fiend doesn't work for me brother."
Yeah Borga was so dominant that he needed a distraction from Mr Fuji a steel chair and a wooden bucket to beat Tatanka .
Thank For The Video 🙊🤯😃😍👍🥰
what about the Texas Hangmen losing to the Tokyo Bullets? The one tag team with a huge undefeated streak. It was a 2 out of 3 falls match with the stipulation that when a team wins a fall, both men are legal. It went to the 3rd fall. One member of each team got pinned at the same time, but the ref missed the Tokyo Bullet member being pinned.
That Starrcade ending was ridiculous too because Disco Inferno and Bigelow both showed up too. Too much going on there. I cant remember the storyline but Inferno showing up during a big WCW title match?
This bro made me count everybody that have beaten Brock
- Show
- Goldberg
- Cena
- HHH
- Undertaker
- Seth
- Roman
- Angle
- Drew
- Bobby
Latino Heat beat him too
That loss didnt hurt Perfect at all. He was almost immediately given the IC title which meant something then. Brutus didnt gain much from the win but only because of the life threatening parasailing accident that happened not long after that which prevented a planned ic title run.
These guys really wanted him to become world champion but they do not understand or probably don't want to see the fact that hulk Hogan was the face of the company he was not about to drop a belt to mr. Perfect no matter how ethletic he is
@@attiepollard7847 agreed. And again the IC title was almost like it’s own division around that time. I know it’s kinda whatever now but it meant something then. It was a title for the work horses of the company (with a few exceptions). So as much as I’d like to have seen a Perfect world champ the IC title satisfied me.
Honestly, in hindsight. Brock beating Taker did much more for him, then Roman beating Taker. Besides Taker being out of shape, Roman had the 10 minutes of boos and was still face? If they turned him heel, it could have worked.
wherever jade finally losses it’ll be the best just because she should’ve never had a streak in the first place
It made sense at one time but it’s just done now, I have a feeling that TK doesn’t know what to do with her post-streak. Maybe tag?
She's basically their equivalent to Goldberg, right? Yet the matches are not very good & I don't think the crowd cares either. At least the crowd was invested in Goldberg leading up to his US & WCW Heavyweight championship wins. And he had some good opponents like DDP & Sting that could carry him in matches as well.
Brock Lesnar only losing to 10 opponents is Cap.
I don’t know how many he lost too, but I can name 12:
John Cena
Drew McIntyre
Roman Reigns
Seth Rollins
Goldberg
Eddie Guerrero
Chris Beniot
The Undertaker
Bobby Lashley
The Big Show
Kurt Angle
Triple H
They probably ignore benoit cause you know reasons
@@aliabbasnaqvi347 true, but other cultaholic videos have included him
Angle too.
@@jeffdelapena2501 I knew I was forgetting someone important.
I remember being a kid and being so damn happy when Scott Hall came in with the taser. Nash was super over and I was still an NWO stan...
"budget Brock Lesnar"
LOL! Borga certainly wasn't budget in ruining things.
I don't know if I'd say Mr Perfect suffered from that loss to Beefer -- I mean, it still shouldn't have happened, but he had a decent IC title run almost immediately afterward. If anything did him in it was that back injury he suffered later that put him on the shelf for so long.
2:38 rest in peace Tony ”Viikinki” Halme
Actually first one to beat Brock wasn't big show it was Mr perfect on raw
Goldberg had to lose eventually, and losing after getting tazed is a good way to protect him. The follow-up with the Fingerpoke of Doom was what ruined it.
I have a feeling punk backstage politiced his way into not dropping the belt to Ryback like he should of
A lil bit of the bubbly is always gonna be funny
Shiiittt I loved the end of Goldberg's streak, it's the nonsense afterwards that wasn't booked well
We’re not doing ppv streaks so no undertaker then proceeds to talk about Charolette’s ppv streak…..
Brock was pinned or submitted by 12 people on TV.
Big show
Angle
Eddie
Goldberg
Cena
Hhh
Taker
Reigns
Rollins
Drew
Lashley
Benoit (survivor series 03 tag match)
Also where we are right now on reliving the war on the best wrestling channel on TH-cam Goldbergs winning streak numbers are correct. We arnt to the end yet though
The streak isn’t the only thing fake about Miss Flair 🤷🏻♂️
Fake or not they're still perfect lol
I actually had a huge crush on her during her NXT days and her initial main roster days but she slowly turned into a plastic action figure.
Curt Hawkins 💪
Takers streak needs to be on here. Brock ending it was the worst booking decision ever
WCW was basically WWE
where they can't have
1 clean title change
example :
CODY vs ROAN REIGNS
The Saudi crown prince has nothing to do with Goldberg defeating the fiend it was Vince’s decision smh
I will never understand why Charlotte won over Asuka at Wrestlemania
Among all of these I don't think any broke my heart as much as Asuka's did ... rlly loved her back then - and still do - ( even though I love Charlotte so much as well) When she lost her WM 34 match I just couldn't believe nor understand why ... It hurts to think 'bout to this day ... specially when you realise that after that lose Asuka never became the greatest female start of Wwe that she supposed to become / my heart wants to believe it's gonna change and she'll have that ... but she lost another Mania match again this year and is not even on tv anymore ... just makes me lose hope 💔🤦🏻♀️
For some reason I registered this list as 10 worst endings to wrestleMania undefeated streaks, I was so baffled like whatre they gonna talk about? theyve had that many streaks to be considered worse?? why doesnt Takers count?! But i learned lol
If Goldberg wanted to behave like a stubborn bull, it was about time they treated him like one.
11 has pinned or submitted Brock Lesnar: Big Show, Angle, Eddie, Goldberg, Cena, HHH, Taker, Reigns, Rollins, Drew, Lashley
They REALLY leaned into the undefeated streak for Asuka and booked themselves into a corner for the Mixed Match Challenge. Since she was undefeated, she and Miz had to win, even though Braun and Bliss or Roode and Charlotte/Becky (Becky for 1 match) would have been just fine. Second, if you review the mythology of the Fiend, Goldberg beating him actually fits within the mythos. Fiend "beat" Cena in that weird match because of all the changes Cena went through over the years. The Fiend taunted Braun with how Braun used to be and won in the swamp. Both Bryan, Orton and Rollins have had different characters over the years. But, Goldberg has always been Goldberg. The Fiend's usual mind games couldn't work and Goldberg wins. Of course, none of that was ever mentioned or alluded to, but it still fits.
Ik Undertaker wasn’t considered for the list, but that was the worst decision ever
Brad Maddox and Xavier Woods were undefeated as a tag team in NXT👀
I still think Goldberg should've lost it two months earlier at Halloween Havoc to a red hot DDP. The Diamond Cutter was a move that was a credible finisher and DDP could hit it out of nowhere on anyone. Goldberg hits the Spear, goes for the jackhammer, DDP slides out of jackhammer, his the DC for a 2.9, a little back and forth, Goldberg goes for a Spear, DDP counters into a diamond cutter for the 1, 2, 3.
I've always thought the same thing. The crowd pops HUGE when DDP hit Goldberg with the Diamond Cutter in that match. They were absolutely read to see him go over.
Taker's streak is by far the WORST streak break and probably the worst Pro Wrestling decision ever!
Semi-related but the best undefeated streak are those years old tighty-whiteys us guys all have
Underwear is overrated
Man people hate on it but that charlotte asuka match at 34 was damn good charlotte flair humbled asuka after lol
Damn... I don't know who to remove from the list, but there has got to be some room for Demon Finn Balor and the collapsing turnbuckle
It was Demon's second loss. Samoa Joe was the first person to beat the Demon Finn Balor at NXT Takeover The End.
@@arvindshastry6434 thank you. I did not know that.
Legit can't think of a streak that ended properly
Scorpio Sky with bubbly 🤣
Asuka's loss to Charlotte still hurts, feels like she's just been mid-card fodder ever since. So many great superstars they could've given the win to, maybe even Shana would've been a good shout to get great heat..anyone other than fucking Charlotte.
Honorable mention: Roman Reigns’ singles match streak being ended by Big Show in 2015
Correct me if I'm wrong but he still hasn't tapped out to anyone right??
@@TheyCallHimPogo he passed out to Samoa Joe in 2017 but that s it
Ah yes, because Asukas career really floundered after loosing at wrestlemania. Never got back to the main event scene, not even once
I would have added Yokozuna on this list.
Asuka is hot
Asuka losing like that to Charlotte still pisses me off.... it's like some old WCW backstage bullshit was going on.....
I get the loss for Jericho, Kid beating Razor on Raw literally propelled Waltman into the spotlight. It was huge when it happened, and as a lifelong wrestling fan, I get why TK tried this again. Didnt come off but it wasnt a bad idea when you look at the history behind it
It was probably Jericho's idea in the first place. I know it was Jericho's idea to give Action Andretti the surprise win.
I was so happy back in 1998 Goldberg lost his title and the streak ended.
They should have given Asuka’s streak to someone who could have actually used it. Having Charlotte be the first one to beat her (and HOW Asuka lost was lame as well) was just pointless. It was WWE cramming Charlotte down fan’s throats yet again. Then Charlotte lost clean to Carmella a month later, which made it even more stupid.
What gets me about Goldberg’s streak ending was that not only was the finish lame. But it helped NO ONE in the end. Kevin Nash just laid down for Hogan two weeks later and became Hogan’s Lackey again. Goldberg looked like a fool and he never held the WCW World Title again either. And Hogan just looked like an egomaniac once again.
No end to any streak is good. The only one that truly upset me was the undertakers. You can't beat the streak, they really should've let him have it to preserve the essence of the phenom, the supernatural otherworldly figure that was the undertaker. No mortal should've taken his streak
I like these videos. I think they're funny
The Goldberg style undefeated streak is alive and well in AEW. In the woman's division they have Jade and in the men's they have Hook. IMO a loss will not damage Jade at all. Hook on the other hand is nothing without winning. Just a skinny Goldberg with Dragonball hair.
I wouldn't consider losing a tag match to be breaking a singles winning streak for Jericho. The wrestlers' win/loss 'records' that AEW quotes are different for singles and tag, so why would it count for this list? Particularly when Charlotte Flair's streak didn't count a tag loss...
I wish they were in that Cargill girls winning streak. Because it's getting annoying as hell
best streak ever was curt hawkings defeated streak
I am tired of everyone saying Kevin Nash had help from Scott Hall. There is NO EVIDENCE that was Scott. It was probably some enraged security guard whom Goldberg owed money to and would pay up. The same people who think the security guard was Scott Hall are the same people who think Mr America was Hulk Hogan!
Ryback shouldn't have been in a title match so soon. He was still getting momentum, and I was actually starting to get behind him. But we all knew Punk wasn't losing. He couldn't lose, he was on absolute fire. Ryback could a been a huge star, but they totally killed his momentum with that match.
WWE panicked.
Punk was feuding with Cena at the time and Cena suffered a minor injury (I stress minor because he was good to compete at Survivor Series onward that year) but that meant Punk had no PPV opponent for Hell in a Cell since WWE didn't really build any credible faces to book against Punk besides Cena.
WWE felt they needed *somebody* so they looked to Ryback and his kayfabe streak and decided he was the best option. Which is never good since it put Ryback into a spot he was too soon for and thus his streak and initial momentum went down the drain.
Bringing Mansoor to the main roster just to end his undefeated streak was pretty mean
Rybacks career wasn’t ruined because his streak got broken. It got ruined because he sucked in the ring and was dangerous to work with because of it.
