Goldberg

Recentemente, o WWE Hall of Famer, Jim Ross, foi questionado através na sua conta oficial no Twitter, sobre a possibilidade de uma luta entre Goldberg e Brock Lesnar na Wrestlemania XXIX. Ross respondeu a dizer

“Goldberg e Brock Lesnar na Wrestlemania 29? Isto seria impossível…”

Apesar de Goldberg ter problemas de relacionamento com Vince McMahon e directores da empresa, ele comentou sobre esta “possível” luta, onde mostrou estar interessado e disse:

“Eu faria isso…”

A última luta de Goldberg na WWE ocorreu na Wrestlemania XX, contra o próprio Lesnar, onde “Stone Cold” Steve Austin foi o Special Guest Referee. A luta teve um clima “hostil” por parte do público, já que era do conhecimento de todos naquela época que ambos os lutadores deixariam a companhia.

O ex-campeão do mundo, Bill Goldberg deu uma entrevista a um programa de rádio, eis os highlights:

On his and Brock Lesnar's initial departure from WWE: "Obviously it was kind of unfinished business. We both left there under circumstances that weren't the most favorable for anybody, let alone the fans who are the most important at the end of the day."

On Lesnar in general: "Brock, as a young kid, he succeeded in every single thing that he did. To venture out and try to play professional football without having college experience — LaVar will tell you how hard that is. Big pat on the back to him for that. And then going to MMA and succeeding and becoming the World Heavyweight Champion. . . Whatever Brock wants to do, I’m in his corner. He’s a good buddy of mine and we talk frequently. I just hope at the end of the day whatever he chooses his health is in a positive note. We all know he's had some issues over the past number of years."

On having a final match: "It's really tough for a guy like myself. Look at a guy like Animal. Look at Road Warrior. Look at guys who are big power guys. . . the older you get the harder it is to be that guy."

He added his ideal final match would be against Steve Austin: "That'd be a dream come true… that'd be killer. I think at the end of the day they probably don't trust me enough to put me in there with guys, considering I'm 'a dangerous guy to work with' and 'I haphazardly ended Bret Hart's career.' At the end of the day these people have to understand it's a violent deal, number one. Number two, accidents happen. And number three, that's why I work in Japan — they don’t cry if you hit them …That's a joke."

Goldberg respondeu ao desafio lançado por Crimson no Impact onde o desafiou. Goldberg respondeu somente, Who???

Um fã questionou Goldberg sobre as comparações que são feitas entre si e o lutador em ascensão na WWE Ryback. O fã perguntou, @Goldberg what do you think about Ryback? He's I guess the new Goldberg... Goldberg somente respondeu, Not exactly ..

Goldberg comentou o facto do seu nome andar a ser cantado pelo público nestes dias e no twitter disse: "WWE or TNA ......anytime fans would chant my name years after I've retired ....it's an honor. Glass half-full."

Bill Goldberg que competiu pela ultima vez na WWE em 2004, terá contactado Brock Lesnar para um regresso à WWE e ter um angle com ele. As aspirações de Goldberg terão embatido no contrato de Lesnar com a WWE onde este somente tem mais dois grandes PPV’s, SummerSlam contra Triple H e Wrestlemania 29 talvez contra Undertaker.

Noticiamos na semana passada que Goldberg havia assinado um contrato de lendas com a WWE. Nesta semana, um fã perguntou ao próprio Bill o motivo da decisão. Ele respondeu, via twitter: "Nunca me ofereceram um (contrato de lendas)"...

Bill Goldberg respondeu ao comentário feito por Ryback que no WWE Magazine disse que era melhor atleta e wrestler do que Goldberg tinha sido na sua carreira. De todas as declarações de Ryback, Goldberg não terá gostado da parte em que Ryback se diz ser melhor atleta....

Fazendo uso do twitter, Goldberg disse: "Better athlete? Come on dude wake up.....,"

Scott Riggs disse a Goldberg, "Take it as a complement that the kid is unsuccessfully trying to outshine you!!"

O ex-announcer da WCW Mark Madden também deu o seu apoio ao dizer, "Ryback thinks he's superior to @Goldberg? Ryback is a Xerox of a Xerox. Goldberg was an organic phenomenon. We'll see how Ryback winds up."

Goldberg terminou ao dizer "Case closed!" "Ryback is a better athlete than @Goldberg? I don't remember seeing Ryback play in the NFL. #ShowSomeRespect."

Goldberg em entrevista ao 4th & Pain falou das comparações que fazem entre ele e Ryback. Goldberg disse:...

"I'm flattered that throughout his rise people have been chanting my name. I don't think it's a knock on him whatsoever. "

"I take no offense to it. To be compared against a guy right now who is (going for a title) ... who hopefully will be a major superstar for these guys is kind of flattering."

"For people to still be chanting my name six years, seven years, eight years removed from the business—that's a huge honor. Any comparisons in the positive note is a honor for me."
