When it comes to the worst of streaks, Crimson in TNA definitely the first I think of. He did nothing special in his matches and wins (as well as having the charisma of dry wall), but they kept bringing up how he is always winning. And eventually he unceremoniously had his streak ended by James Storm. Such a pointless thing.

I thought Crimson had a unique look, but his punches sucked.

Sid’s Millennium Man gimmick towards the end of WCW’s Summer of Suck and around Bischoff’s ouster. Less a winning streak and more him disrupting every cruiserweight and lower card match to get the referee to count his pins.

I have only the vaguest of recollections of it, but wasn't the last gasp of Immortal in TNA with Ric Flair managing f***ing Gunner on a winning streak?

Tatanka was undefeated for like, 18 months and I'll be damned if I can remember anything about it aside from his DQ win vs Shawn at WM9

The streak was ended by Ludvig Borga. A man who is about as famous as my pair of boxers. Incidentally, Tatanka did lose to Rick Martel via countout at a house show the year before this but we know house shows are non-canon.

Alister Black’s winning streak in WWE was pretty much pointless when WWE had no clue what to do with him.
Scorpio Sky’s recently. I doubt many people cared.

Brodus Clay won 33 straight televised matches between 2011-2012. Only Ryback had a streak longer than that of ANY wrestler in WWE since the beginning of 2004.
What does anyone remember of any of it?

Less a winning streak and more him disrupting every cruiserweight and lower card match to get the referee to count his pins. I won't lie, as a kid I absolutely loved that gimmick and Goldberg v Sid at Halloween Havoc felt like the biggest match in the world to me. Then it lasted 4 minutes and was booked in a weird way that Goldberg came across like a monster heel and Sid like a badass babyface who refused to quit.

Adam Rose was undefeated for like 4 to 6 months after his Raw debut. Then someone noticed that and he never won another match ever again. Adam Rose himself acknowledged this on one of those early WWE Network, Countdown programs.
Bo Dallas was like 10-Bo and then I think R-Truth, who hadn't won a match himself in ages ended Bo's streak and that was about it for Bo ever being taken seriously ever again.

Didn’t Bobby Heenan have to BS something on commentary about how Sid picked s fight with s few guys in the parking lot when his streak number suddenly jumped? I vaguely remember something like that.

He beat Drew McIntyre clean in about 90 seconds during it. Brodus, that is. Ryback had some fun moments early on, like the "two is better than one!" handicap match jobbers.

I remember a "surprise bonus match!" on a PPV where he beat 3MB era Drew McIntyre. WWE has a repeating habit of forming a tag team out of two low card guys and letting them go on a winning streak that includes a tag team championship run, yet still making sure they don't actually get over by having every win be flukey or cheap. I think Hawkins and Ryder were the most recent example, but there was also Bo Dallas and Curtis Axel, Heath Slater and Rhyno, Tazz and Spike Dudley, and others. They get a team winning streak and they get the championship, but it's very clear they aren't being elevated and will just split up and go back to catering as soon as they lose.

Not only did Crimson just randomly lose to James Storm on PPV to end his undefeated streak, he then lost his next TV match to Devon in what was essentially a squash match and then didn't appear on TV for over a year. They built this dude up like he was Goldberg and then beat him and took him off TV in the span of a few weeks. All that investment...gone.

I remember Drew McIntyre's original run from 2009-2010 had a winning streak that was randomly ended in a MITB qualifier on Smackdown by Kane in the dumbest way. He counters a tombstone or something (EDIT: it's off a sunset flip!), and Kane just kicks him in the head in a routine fashion, and then he just...pins him. He got pinned with a regular kick on the ground. Found it on the official WWE channel: www.youtube.com/watch?v=NOVV_djSjwwIt's even worse than I remembered lol.
