i think he'll go to TNA and get a ratings spike the first week and the next week the ratings fall on and on till the ratings are the same.

Never cared for Goldberg. However, Gillberg that is a guy you can admire.

I hate how Goldberg acts like he's above everyone else. He's not special.

I was watching and he was a star back then---in the late 90s. He certainly didn't have the same reaction in '04 and now it's 7 years later. He's too old to take WWE in any new direction. Time passes everyone by. He would get a good nostalgia pop, but he would fizzle quickly. I'm talking about nothing else other than his peak. The WCW "machine" made him undeniably one of the biggest stars of that time. People ****ting all over him on here, saying he was "nothing" or was "never relevant" are trying to rewrite history more so than the WWE has done. Bill Goldberg was never a technician, he wasn't the most talented guy on the roster - by a long shot, but he had unreal charisma, and was able to connect with the crowd with an intensity that hadn't been seen in someone since the Ultimate Warrior. All he had to do was snarl, and yell - and people went ape **** for him. He plowed through wrestlers left and right with spear, after insane spear, jackhammer after wicked jackhammer, and people ate it up. It bugs me when people ignore that, or pretend it never happened. You're right. Goldberg was HUGE in '98. WCW would have done better to have given him more title reigns. And while I was never a huge fan of his (I was ambivalent), I would certainly take him over the Ultimate Warrior. He was a much better athlete and his promos were actually coherent. That being said, what works in one era often doesn't in another. Goldberg's support during his WWE run was lukewarm. What is it going to be like with a percentage of fans who weren't around for his hot time in WCW? Unless he stayed for a couple of years and tweaked/reinvented himself, he probably wouldn't make much of a splash.
