    You cant compare. The Undertaker kept his streak going by winning one guaranteed match a year.


    Goldberg was undefeated for 15 months. To do that from the late 90's to present is legendary. Imagine what his streak would've been if he was working the WWF 300 days a year schedule.

    The only thing that ? me off is how he would have high profile matches on Nitro and half the time, wouldn't even defend his title at PPVs (ie Road Wold, Fall Brawl, World War 3). I guess that's just how WCW did things back in the day with those contracts.

    undertaker streak was more entertaining....Goldberg could wrestle no doubt...but he beat raven and glacier like 14 times each....

    taker had better matches/opponents and was a more shocking ending....when Goldberg streak ended I laughed and it was anti climatic

    Goldberg's streak was like a young Mike Tyson in that it it was like you was watching a legend being birthed in real time with every match and that they both were ended in shocking left-field ways


    Takers streak up until the last 3 years was kind of like a given. You expected the streak to continue just because of his standing & legacy in the business. The only real shock about his streak ending was that he and WWE broke tradition when the fans wanted it to remain intact because it tie up his career in a nice proverbial bow.

    so I gotta say Goldberg's was more impactful, especially since it was a linear streak built up on a week by week basis instead of taker's intermittent year to year streak. The crowd reaction seemed like mostly plants in the audience rather than genuine distraught onlookers

    I found a site that lists Goldberg's streak. I doubt it's all the matches but it looks pretty official

    Just for kicks I looked up Samoa Joe's 18-month winning streak too.

    His record is marred by losing matches without being pinned or made to submit though. Still interesting.

    The ether is that Goldberg basically lost his streak to the finger point of doom

    Now I know Kevin Nash really beat him but weeks later, who beat Nash?......................Hogan with a finger point of doom

    So basically they sabotage the streak for a finger point
