10 Wrestling Feuds With Unexpectedly Ridiculous Stories
1. Da Man's Streak Ends Via Da Cattle Prod
Trying to land on precisely how to bring one of the most dominant and legendary streaks in wrestling history to an end was always going to be a pretty tall order.
What human alive was realistically going to be able to bring down a force of nature like big bad Goldberg? He'd already ran through everyone from Hulk Hogan to The Giant. So, fans were genuinely invested in what would ultimately be the downfall of Da Man at some point down the road.
All of the fantasy booking in the world wouldn't have resulted in you coming anywhere near close to the finish eventually landed on for bringing The Streak to its dramatic conclusion, however.
Instead of having the wrecking ball finally meet his physical match or an up-and-coming sensation steal a life-changing win against the bald titan, the simply mystifying call was made to have him be cattle prodded by Scott Hall en-route to Kevin Nash picking the bones for the monumental win at Starrcade 1998.
That alone was the sort of laughable twist that ultimately set the stage for WCW's downfall. But the fact this also set the stage for the infamous Finger Poke of Doom cements it firmly as one of the dumbest and most ridiculous conclusions to a once captivating storyline of all time.
