I don't think it's as commendable as you lot are making it out to be. It's somewhat an achievement in the sense that it takes a lot of consistency and quantity of material but I don't see any challenge in Bleu's journey.
Beating rivals is one thing but establishing yourself as a bigger fish by taking down a few giants is the only way you elevate your status.
And I know you've faced a few vets but this is about Bleu. He hasn't yet created an array of big wins. He simply has a streak of decent wins.

To me, LB has always been about steps.
First, you battle active as fuck against anyone. 5 Battles a day kind of stuff.
Then, you rise the ranks and defeat everyone at your "weight class".
And last, you go after the big names and become one yourself.
In this streak, Bleu has taken out ROTY winner Obey, GC finalist Lockhart and 'long undefeated streak' Subreal, all 3 are considered to be high level guys in the 'Middleweight Division'.
Just because he's getting some respect for something, doesn't mean the site is all dickriding the guy and saying he's the greatest ever. Bleu is quickly establishing himself as more than a Middleweight, and he's going about it in the right way by taking on all the other guys ranked around him.
As for the streak, the guy likes to battle and puts out as many as he can. I'm sure all of us wish we had that drive.
