174-0 or 173-1 Clean
By Scott Keith on May 31, 2018
Hey Scott,
Two Goldberg Streak Scenarios
1) You've probably answered this question but, if Goldberg HAD smashed Nash, what WOULD have been Chapter 2? Goldberg had run through the roster. Bam Bam was coming in but no one was buying him as a threat. NWO was quickly becoming a parody and even Hogan was fastly becoming irrelevant. As much as I love the WCW mid-card, no one there that Goldberg hadn't already run through posed any threat to him. Really, there only option was, at the very least, re-establishing the NWO as a dominant force and having Goldberg run through them, with or without losing the streak. Unless…
2) Nash beats Goldberg. Clean. With the Jackknife. HEAR ME OUT!
This would essentially be Brock/Goldberg with Nash as Goldberg. Goldberg can even come back on the next Nitro and destroy everyone all over again, Nash doesn't even need to be Goldberg 2.0 (IE He can lose clean or whatever to other guys) but for every match Goldberg has with Nash, Nash comes out on top.
It would actually make Goldberg stats seem more realistic. Like the Bull in 92, I think, had this amazing year but still lost to the Hornets, who were trash back then. The storyline could be that Goldberg, for all his strength and power, is still a rookie and Nash, while not the monster Goldberg is, has enough to skill and strength to hold off Goldberg for the initial onslaught and eventually beat him.
They could run that for years with Goldberg getting closer and closer but never actually sealing the deal until Starrcade 2000. Big house. Everyone thinks Goldberg has to win and he does.
Big celebration. Babies flying. And WCW lasts another year.
Thoughts?

Goldberg was doing huge business smashing geeks in 30 second squashes. I don't know why anyone thought they needed to mess with it, but apparently WCW did.
