Tatanka's Unbeaten Streak?

[Keith]

When I was a kid/teenager during the early 90s Tatanka was one of my favourites. I was impressed by how long his unbeaten streak lasted, and liked how he was different to the likes of Hogan, Sid, Taker etc..

So three questions.

1. How important was Tatanka's unbeaten streak in getting him over?

2. What did you think of Tatanka overall and which feuds or matches of his did you like the most?

3. What did you think of his heel turn?

I thought Tatanka was awesome, mainly because I'm native and you didn't see many on TV.

I don't think his unbeaten streak mattered because he wasn't really involved in major feuds outside of IRS who tore up his head dress. Didn't even know he had a 2 year unbeaten streak until he lost to Ludvig Borga.

Heel turn was alright, personally I think he should've been a solo act and not in the Million Dollar Corporation and been more of a political heel, denouncing white America for the genocide of the natives.

Agree on the winning streak. It only got mentioned now again, and they only made a big deal of it when he lost it. It could have meant more if it was one year rather than two. I did quite like the feud and matches with Martal, the Luger match at KOTR, and the Bigelow one from Rumble 94.

It was a good twist him going heel and switching to the Corporation, but you may have a point he would have had a better chance of getting over as a heel if he stayed solo.
