WWE Hall of Famer Bill Goldberg recently spoke with Justin Barrasso of Sports Illustrated to talk about various topics. Here are the highlights:
Brock Lesnar:
“If it wasn’t for Brock, it would not have happened,” said Goldberg. “Period, end of story. I know it’s hard to believe this, but Brock is a caring person underneath all that big giant monster’s body,” said Goldberg. “The relationship he has with his sons parallels my relationship with my son, and I think Brock may have understood what I was going through. Maybe he put himself in my position, saw a little bit of himself later in life in me, and saw how much this meant to me. For that, I can never repay Brock.”
His Hall of Fame induction:
“I never close the door,” said Goldberg. “The Hall is a very wonderful accolade to receive, but it’s not the stamp on the end of my career. I continue to grow, continue to entertain, and I don’t like bookending anything.”
His latest WWE run:
“That comeback made me realize I do love the business and I do appreciate the business,” said Goldberg. “Just because you don’t grow up wanting to do something doesn’t mean you can’t have a wholehearted appreciation for it.
