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".
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...)
