See, this never made sense to me even when I watched wrestling... it's scripted... who cares about their "undefeated streaks?"
The bookers. Since he was one of WCW's main draws and they wanted him to stay that way, they gave him huge pushes all the time.
And the people who just watch wrestling to enjoy it. But they don't count.
And like Jerry Lawler said in his book, being a good showman will get you farther in a wrestling career than being a good wrestler.
