We all know Nash was raped and gaped but who else could have ended the streak? He was the only and best choice when they decided the streak had to finish up by the end of the year.
>Jericho was the smark choice but his contract was up in 6 months, he had a NJPW talent exchange for half of that time booked and he was never going to get it
>DDP was the most over face at the time and part of the reason the streak had to end. It was his turn but they weren’t going to run a Face vs Face at the biggest PPV of the year with no build or reason.
>Big Show’s contract was up in 30 days and was leaving
>Flair was paying off a feud with legit heat with Bischoff, was no showing all year and suing and counter suing WCW all year and would step back from wrestling for a break soon. Also face at the time.
>Saturn, Prince Iaukea, Norman Smiley, Kidman, Konnan, Rey, Ernest The Caf Miller, Juve, Eddie. Lol no
>Maybe it would have been poetic for Jerry Flynn to do it since 75 of those wins in Goldberg’s streak came from him, but WCW didn’t have the balls.
So who but Kevin R Nash could do this thing that needed doing? Nash has never been a mark for the biz and Goldberg was insecure. He’s credible, it lead to DDP getting his run, Goldberg hypothetically chasing the belt and building his character and also his most Kino match ever against Scott Hall, hands down his best match (unless you prefer the one where he kicked Shitman’s head out of his head). Thank you Based Big Sexy for drawing the house and doing business the right way. KWAB
