Goldberg's entrance might be only 2nd to Undertaker, but it's true in the grand scheme of things looking back there's no classic matches besides Hogan but that was mostly because of the magnitude of the match, you really had to be there for the whole streak I think your lying if you tell me you were there since the beginning and the whole time you were just like "eh nothing special", he was relatively unknown for a good portion of that streak and there were so many unknowns that came and went in and out of the wcw at that time, so no one had any clue but every week it just kept building and building and building and he just became this phenomenon and his streak was the biggest thing going in pro wrestling, and it was refreshing with NWO dominating and flooding everything else, you can't go back and become a fan of Goldberg you really had to be there to appreciate it but I think he deserves more credit than a "gtfoh" when he dominated although not for a long span in time but in the greatest era in wrestling history, top 20

Goldberg's entrance>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Taker's entrance

Goldberg's entrance gets you hyped for a match, Taker's literally puts you to sleep with the lights goin out and slow melodic music playing as he takes 2 hours just to get to the steps

Exactly, niggas lying but I'm just gonna continue sipping my tea.

I was watching during the Goldberg era but I can't say he was one of my favorite guys. I wasn't nitpicky at the time but he was very Ultimate Warrior to me where he had a cool factor because he was beating everybody but it wasn't like I was a mark for him or watched all his stuff either.

I remember the important streak matches but most of them weren't memorable.

Looking back at it with new perspective, he was cursed with that streak. Its very hard to write for overpowered worldbreakers, its hard in comics too. Goldberg is the Incredible Hulk, he's Superman. its difficult for people to feel sympathy for him

I actually never liked ultimate warrior and can't even compare them. Ultimate warrior was more like a powerhouse sting but with a crappy finisher.

It's easy to pin point all his flaws looking back, but there was nothing like Goldberg up until that point, look how crazy that crowd used to get

Hoisting a 500 lb guy up into the air off brute strength >>>> placing a 500 pound guy over your shoulders and spinning or carrying him off.

So a guy with zero classic matches and only did squash matches 90% of the time is a GOAT. I honestly believe y'all don't know what GOAT is, first Jericho and now this

 

[its....JOHN B]

I said top 20-25

 

[its....JOHN B]

And Jericho is top 15

Speaking of Jericho and Goldberg


Those Greenberg promos were gold

 

[BangEm_Bart]

Lol Jericho is definitely not a GOAT to me. I just think Goldberg had thee best marketable undefeatable streak of all time while winning over WCW fans of that time. He knew how to keep quiet, whoop ass and prove his athleticism and dominance in the ring. This is just my preference but he's thee greatest powerhouse of all time. I use to tune in to the end of WCW skip all cruiserweight matches to watch Goldberg embarrass and out wrestle his oppponents when I was a youngin. I use to think he was half black. I was also a big fan of harlem heat. The Damien Marley version of Goldbergs theme use to get me pumped up in the gym.


I also disagree with a lot of the ppl in here choices in wrestling. I mean some of y'all are edge and christian fans lmao.

Goldberg vs Steiner at Fall Brawl is a classic. Goldberg vs Raven was a classic. That's work ratezzzz wise. Goldber beating Hogan for the world title is classic stuff, if you're not a workrate pervert.

Goldberg was fucking awesome.

 

[Peezy_Jenkins]

those matches are decent at best bruh.

 

[Peezy_Jenkins]

the thing about goldberg imo was at best his matches were kinda like that big brawl at the end of a promo, they just got u hype for a second. nothing more nothing less. like i said he and the streak were cool back then when i was younger, then the streak ended and he had that megadeth music which was cool and they became my favorite band. but as i "smartened up" i really saw nothing special bout goldberg besides the streak

 

[ghost!]

Gotdamn. Lol I thought more people liked Goldberg. I had a best overall wrestler plan for him too. It might prove to be even more interesting now

Na this forum is predominantly WWF fans. Me and kinggivbiz the only WCW fans.

na na....I fucks with WCW. To me the sting vs NWO was the greatest storyline ever in wrestling.

I also fuck with WCW heavily. Hogan/Sting had the GOAT build but resulted in a WOAT match at Starrcade. The rematch at Superbrawl 98 wasn't much better.

 

[lazypakman]

Goldberg vs Steiner at Fall Brawl is a classic.

This was in the dying days of WCW, i remember that match because those 2 were exchanging stiff blows all the way throughout it, the physicality on display was immense.

 

[Preach2Teach]

He's better than Vince Mcmahon and Doink the clown for sure.

 

[Angeles1son85]

This shit was dope

 

[Mdizzle9000]

anyone who peaked in WCW banned from GOAT convo

 

[BangEm_Bart]

This shit was dope

This would've been one of the greatest rivalries ever. So pissed Bret got injured.
