  • Goldberg somehow comes across both exceedingly humble as well as abrasively arrogant; always sets a bizarre tone in his interviews.
  • @mr.ellerbe3898
    He's jacked at 57 and still working on himself. 1000% inspirational.
  • @crutchddaddy95
    I owe Goldberg for making me fall in love with professional wrestling at 4 years old. He is my wrestling superhero even at 29. Thank you Bill.
  • @TravelatorH8r
    Well I'm glad that a WWE Hall of Fame induction is good enough for Goldberg😬
  • @commsense1979
    Goldberg recorded a video birthday message for my kid during the pandemic and absolutely didn't have to take the time to do it. A genuinely nice guy.
  • @wendex593
    Bully's face just lit up!!!! Love it
  • I was there for that Survivor Series squash match against Lesnar. Just the experience of seeing the Goldberg entrance and the big fight atmosphere going into that match was incredible. The absolute shock in the crowd was amazing!
  • Personally I sympathize with Goldberg. How many times can you apologize for an honest mistake before you're done apologizing? It's also not like it was Goldbergs choice to be booked into a match with Bret. He was just doing his job. Plus, Bret is always quick to blame Goldberg, but he's also quick to forget that he chose to wrestle several matches after the concussion. Including a hardcore match with Terry Funk.
  • @thewholefnshow
    Goldberg came off the most level headed during that wcw documentary
  • I’ll tell you, I watched Goldberg come on the scene back when I was in high school and he was such a major attraction. He was so entertaining!! And then, when he went against some of the star players, the anticipation was HUGE!! I will always be a big fan of Goldberg, but at the same time (believe it or not) also a big fan of Bret Hart. Oh, and just a side note: Goldberg has already BEAT the Rock about 20 years ago 😂😂😂
  • @CS-uf4bh
    Bubba Ray and Paul Heyman sound the same 💀
  • @TheHannibalTV
    Bret got a big Loyds of London Settlement after that kick and wrestled 10 times in WCW after that. He also was WWE US champion and was one of the main events at a Wrestlemania with Vince.
  • @MrLuciousp
    Bret is the best, and I understand how angry he is, and has a right to be. But Bill was a fan of Bret's. Can you imagine the guilt of accidently ending Bret Hart's career? In a strange way, that accident may have ultimately saved Bret's life. He's the only one of the 97 Hart Foundation still alive! Sure, he had some tough times, but he's still around, healthy, happy, with great stories to tell. I know Bret would NEVER understand my point, but I've always had this strange feeling that Bret being forced to retire early...idk I'm just glad Bret is still around. Bret can forgive Shawn and Vince, who did stuff to him purposefully. What Bill did was a heartbreaking accident. I just think the world of Bret.
  • @earlusmcdivett
    Goldberg kept WCW going right when they needed that shot in the arm. He postponed their demise atleast a year. Also im so tired of the Bret Hart BS. Bret had absolutely no idea when he got a concussion.
  • @Epsilonsama
    On one hand as a Bret Hart fan I hate what Goldberg did to Bret. He was unsafe and dangerous in the ring. And if I was Bret I definitely would still be bitter about him costing My career. But Goldberg simply didn't know so what makes me angry is how WCW let someone who was not trained right perform at a high level and get pushed like he did.
  • @alecbair4249
    You didn't end brets career he wrestled after that match
  • @tthomaselli2
    For a guy who's 57½, Goldberg looks to be a incredible & great shape. What are the chances he re-signs with WWE, or, debuts in AEW?...
  • I love what he said about his son. As a father of a son that is almost 13 and I know the day is coming when he is off to college, and I dint know what I'm going to do. Great interview! I loved Goldberg growing up
  • @lazcoroner1483
    Seeing Goldberg lose to Bron Breakker would be awesome.
