When Does Defeated Become Undefeated?

We all know that Vladimir Kozlov has been billed as 'The Undefeated Moscow Mauler' or the 'Undefeated Russian Bear' or 'The Undefeated ______', but he's not undefeated.

I saw somebody write an article on here saying that his "Undefeated streak" was fake. I was obviously curious, so I checked it out.

The article had a link to a video on YouTube of a SmackDown! house show taping where Triple H defeated Vladamir Kozlov in a Street Fight. So he's not really undefeated, they just keep saying he is because it never happened on Friday Night SmackDown!

I can see how they can get away with that. Not all wrestling fans go on sites like this, trying to get all the dirt and grime they can about what's going on backstage with the wrestling world. So kudos to the WWE for that aspect.

Now here's what I don't get. We all know that two weeks ago on ECW it was Title vs. Streak. Jack Swagger was heading into his ECW Championship match with Matt Hardy undefeated. He'd never been pinned, counted out, disqualified or forced to submit.

Swagger then beat Hardy to become the new ECW Champion. That same week on SmackDown!, Hardy pinned Swagger in a tag team match.

Swagger was pinned, on national television, in his 1st match as ECW Champion by the person that he just won the title from 72 hours removed. Now to me, that means he is no longer undefeated. I mean, his shoulders were pinned to the mat 1-2-3 no questions asked.

Yet tonight on wwe.com, they are saying that Jack Swagger defeated Matt Hardy to retain his ECW Championship and to remain undefeated. I saw it in two or three different places, they said that Jack Swagger remained undefeated after beating Matt Hardy. How the hell can they say that, when he was pinned on WWE TV?!

Let me know what you think, do you think that WWE should keep billing Kozlov and Swagger as 'undefeated' (Dolph Ziggler too, if you read my article on him...Monday Night Screw Up)?
