3. “I’m a little lighter than I used to be but trust me, I can still bring the pain….Brock” – Goldberg
During a recent interview with Inside The Ropes, Goldberg was asked about possibly returning to the ring, his match with The Rock in 2003 and more. Below are the highlights:
On being in WWE2K17:
“On October 11th, you’ll get to see me and Brock lesnar go at it one more time and I’m sure he’ll be trying to get that loss back from WrestleMania XX. the reality is when this game comes out, you’ll get to see me in the ring against new guys or guys like The Undertaker who you never saw me get in the ring with. As a father, a 49 year old, an old timer, it’s an honor to be in the game. It also makes me a great dad since it’s pretty cool for a ten year old.”
Would he step back in the ring?
“I do Muay Thai five days a week and wrestling pales in comparison to getting kicked in the face and thrown around like that five days a week. I’m a little lighter than I used to be but trust me, I can still bring the pain….Brock.”
Does he have fond memories of his match with The Rock back in 2003?
“Yeah definitely. I wish he would’ve let me do a bit more physical stuff or let me to a bit more to him but at the end of the day, you gotta keep your face pretty if you’re gonna be the Hollywood guy so I completely understand that but looking back on it, the fact that they would put me in the ring with him, first, that’s a huge honor so if I look back at some of the things I did back then, I sit in awe that I was in that position and they let it happen.”
