What Does Woat Mean
Woat stands for “worst of all time,” often used to describe something or someone seen as a complete disaster or failure in comparison to others.

This term is often used in sports, music, or pop culture to criticize a player, artist, or event.

Origin of Woat
After the invention of G.O.A.T (greatest of all time), its antonym was needed to describe the other side. The internet slang W.O.A.T began to appear online shortly after G.O.A.T became popular. Social media sites like TikTok play a crucial role in spreading this jargon and making people use it instead of saying “worst of all time.” Its search trend data is available on Google Trends, as shown in the following screenshot.
Final Thoughts
Woat is the short way of describing something or someone that is considered to be exceptionally bad or underperforming. However, it is important to check the context in which this expression is utilized. Sometimes, woat is just a typo for “what,” often made when people are typing quickly. So, to keep a conversation professional and error-free, always analyze the context carefully.
