10 of WCW's dirtiest scandals.

Scandal #9: Nash books himself to win the world title from megastar Goldberg.

It took Scott Hall and a cattle prod to end Goldberg's winning streak--and some political stroke by Kevin Nash.

It's hard to get across just how ridiculously popular Bill Goldberg was during his late 1990s WCW run. The undefeated streak, the Jackhammer, and his unbelievable victory over Hollywood Hogan live on Nitro was the only thing that seemed able to turn the Monday Night War back to WCW's favor.

So what did WCW do? Take the belt off of him in a screwjob finish, of course.

In 1998 Eric Bischoff had come to rely upon Kevin Nash's advice extensively. When Chris Benoit, Eddie Guerrero, Dean Malenko, and Perry Saturn all asked for their release from the company, Nash said to just let them go, calling them "vanilla midgets." Two of those men would go on to become WWE world champions.

Eric wound up making the arrangement official, and named Kevin Nash as WCW's head booker. Nash had barely had the job for ten seconds when he booked himself to beat Goldberg in a world title match. Though it involved a cattle prod and some NWO shenanigans including Scott Hall, the move is widely regarded as a colossal blunder that directly led toward the downfall of WCW.
