It wouldn't bother me much, but it wouldn't make much sense when "The Streak" could be used to propel one of those guys on the cusp to that next level.

... and this is from Steele, so that should let everyone know how dumb of an idea this is long-run. Even though you truly "never know" because there is always that chance of a swerve, just because one can almost bank on Undertaker winning, it's still worth taking the ride as a fan.

I agree. Yeah, a young lion can get the rub, but at the same time, it can be one of those nigh-unreachable streaks that solidifies the Deadman as legendary like the "HONK-A-METER".

Warrior is long gone and Hogan keeps coming back like a turd in a tub.
This fits the thread because he also passed the torch to 'Taker (with an emphatic Tombstone and Heenan exclaiming "Hulkamania is dead!"), and everyone is speculating an impending retirement out of Undertaker. It's like Foley being a legit fan of Terry Funk, wrestling Terry Funk, then RETIRING before Terry Funk!

The streak is about as important as those Royal Rumble statistics: not really, but still fun. Goldberg's streak would be less BS if it weren't swollen by house show wins, local enhancement talent, and repeated victores over the laundry list of WorldWide jobbers (Glacier, Smiley, DisQo, Silver King, all of nWo Black & White...)

That depended on what Saturday it was you were watching. Much like Glacier. Or pre-Filthy Animals Konnan. They'll get a win one week against another mid-carder, then job out to "Joe Nobody-We'll-Push". That gives the unknown guy enough clout to lose to another enhancement talent. And that guy loses to another. Etc. The only people I remember virtually unscathed were Jericho and La Parka... maybe Vampiro to an extent.
