Sami Zayn opens up on Goldberg
The former WWE Intercontinental Champion, discussed Goldberg’s legendary career on the newest episode of WWE After The Bell. He described how Goldberg filled the exact role that WCW needed at that time. Zayn then reckoned that the WWE Hall of Famer might not have been as successful if he debuted in the modern era, where performers’ work rate is deemed more important:
“Goldberg debuts today in NXT, is he going to be Bill Goldberg? Maybe, but my guess is probably not,” said Zayn. “Bill Goldberg had to fill a very specific vacuum that only existed at that exact time to be in the spot that he’s in.”
“I hope I’m not taking a shot at Bill here, but I’m pretty sure he would be the first to acknowledge, this guy isn’t exactly known for his 5-star matches,” Zayn continued. “So if he came around at a slightly different time when like work rate was far more important, he might have been left in the dust or people might not have taken a second look at him.”
Goldberg made his last appearance in WWE against Bobby Lashley at Crown Jewel in a No Holds Barred Falls Count Anywhere match.
