Goldberg refuses to take a bump, or kick out on 2. I would have hated to work with this doucebag.

jeeze goldberg looked like a shitty wrestler here. Even Curt could not make him loook good which is almost impossible to find considering how much Hennig was a good seller and wrestler.

[iconoclasm12345]

wcw totally misused goldberg.  they should have had him chasing a heel champion for 6 months(hogan or nash or flair or whoever) where the champ either gets d/qed or other weak finish then finally wins the belt at starcade. ah well.

@toolboxtilman this isnt a video game set on hard difficulty. it was meant to be unpredictable i would think.

[goyankees87]

judging from your attitude, you wouldnt see goldberg to begin with. his job was to dominate, not make everyone else look cool. he had natural strength, endurance and athleticism so im thinking he was told to be an unbeatable force before he even signed a contract. brock lesnar is the same guy. you dont just put a guy like brock lesnar in submissions for 40 minutes and say that was entertainment because brock really made you and his opponent believe that particle board tables are harmful.

@rhynokav i see what you are saying. its not entertaining to see a title fight that is lopsided.

what i think i was trying to say was that goldberg never coasted like some of these other guys. i remember hennig like a poor mans brett hart. he was all about technique and we all knew he wasnt really crushing his opponents acl or ruining anybody's career, so to me THAT GOT OLD VERY FAST to me. goldberg came to compete and be role model and the coaster guys came to put on a play.

@goyankees87 ohk, this is coming from someone who was a goldberg fan ...

yes he has great intensity in the ring, and he was great to watch run people over, but having championship matches as walkovers gets old very quickly, and it did!! he cannot have a good match that isn't a walk-over!!

[rhynokav]

@XDrago20 Once again, I go back to my point!! just because Goldberg has been booked to win matches, how does that make him a good wrestler. Sure he has great ring presence, but once that fades, he doesn't have the skill level to keep him at the top.

And HBK put a lot of guys over in WWE, not to mention had a series of great matches, even towards the end of his career. AND he made 2 matches with Cena very entertaining.

so once again, what REAL point's do you have to make goldberg the best ever?

[XDrago20]

@rhynokav -_________- Yeah HBK is probably the best performer the WWE/WWF ever had but WTF did he do in the WWE but get his ass kicked most of the time he only won the heavyweight title once and that wasnt for very long... so answer this do you really think HBK could beat Goldberg in a match i really dont think so... Goldberg has beaten basically everybody that was good in the WWE such as HHH, Brock Lesnar, Batista, The Rock and many others...

[rhynokav]

@XDrago20 oh for fuck sakes, you are a retard. wrestling is scripted. sooo really the best wrestler there is Russo, because he's the guy who came up with the idea for the "STREAK!!!!!!" and how dare you say HBK couldn't last 2 mins with ANYONE, HBK is in my opinion the best performer the WWE WWF or the whole wrestling world will ever see!!! Goldberg is just a no sell idiot. have you ever seen a good match with Goldberg that wasn't a walk over?
