2. Goldberg Reveals Who He Wanted To Put Over In WCW During His Streak Days
Former WWE & WCW World Heavyweight Champion Goldberg recently appeared on the Steve Austin Show podcast. Goldberg talked about his time in WCW and WWE. Goldberg noted that he left WWE because he wasn’t having fun anymore and it’s not always about money.
Goldberg also revealed that he wasn’t selfish during his career in WCW. Below is what he said:
“I had a lot of power, quote-unquote, in WCW at one point … I always felt bad about guys who had been in the business for twenty fu*king years and they’re jumping off a building for twenty bucks, and here comes Goldberg six months into the business, and I got the fu*king belt, and I’m making whatever. So as a businessman if I had no fu*king heart then I wouldn’t have given a sh*t and I would have said, ‘You know what, my bank account is getting huge, fu*k these other schmucks, put ’em in the backseat and who cares about them.’ But I cared. Bobby Eaton, I wanted to put Bobby Eaton over in his hometown on his birthday in a dark match during my streak.
They wouldn’t let me do it. Nobody fu*king tells you about that fu*king story. But it’s always, ‘Goldberg, he was selfish, he was this-and-that’ … At the end of the day I had power at times and I never used it maliciously.”
