8 Lesser Known Wrestling Streaks

8. Samoa Joe

TNA had to have something special in mind for Samoa Joe after they lured the fledgling indie star away from ROH in mid-2005, and a year-and-a-half undefeated streak - finally ended at the hands of a debuting Kurt Angle at the tail end of 2006 - wasn't a bad way to go.

The Samoan Subission Machine was booked, from the outset, as the rampant, take-no-prisoners wrestlers' wrestler we all know and love; an exciting outlier in the mostly cruiserweight X-Division, where he became acquainted with the likes of Christopher Daniels and AJ Styles (not least of all in their unforgettable triple threat at Unbreakable; a match in which Joe, lest we forget, wasn't actually pinned).

You can argue that having him lose the record against Angle - a WWE icon - was the wrong decision, but Joe emerged from the feud a bigger star than he was going in.
