His last few runs may have stunk. But that 2016-17 WWE return was pretty damn good and made for some good TV.

I can’t imagine he goes somewhere else, right?
I don’t think I can handle the whiplash of Goldberg’s perception if he goes somewhere else.

I could see Tony Khan maaaaaaybe paying him for a 2-3 match run where in the end he puts over Powerhouse or Brody King, but then he's out.
AEW is not the place to work if you have Goldberg's cardio lol

I could have swore this news is over a year old. I thought it was reported at the time that the match with Roman at Elimination Chamber last year was the last match on his contract.

It wasn't all bad. I mean it ranged from very good to atrocious but there was some gold there.
The run with Brock and Mania match was great. Him winning the Universal title not so much.
His match with Taker where they nearly killed each other was dreadful. The redemption squash with Ziggler was fun.
The matches with Drew and Bobby were okay. Everything else was awful.

There wasn’t really anything else for him to do. I’ve never been a huge Goldberg fan but this last run was fine (apart from him squashing The Fiend) even if he did overstay his welcome a little. The funniest thing about his run was his son getting bodied by Lashley 🤣

Yeah, if it ended with Ziggler at Summerslam. I think people look more fondly at his return.

I'd be ok if he went to AEW and was booked like Sting is, an attraction outside of the main event cards. A Trios champ, a tag champ? Maybe sure, but not anywhere close to the world title, even two Jewish wrestlers fighting for a world title would be a cool historical thing
Goldberg on Turner again would be cool... if it doesn't happen, I'm also fine with it, but I'd get it if it happened... and was done much more like Goldberg vs Ziggler and less... like most of his WWE run was especially the latter half.

Exactly. His son jumped Lashley from behind, I fail to see how Lashley was in the wrong 😉

Fightful doesn't usually report this stuff unless something's about to happen. They'll say WWE is really interested in JONAH and the dude shows up the next week. Tony can afford him, especially if WWE didn't put in the effort to pay for him.

Let’s go Tony, Let’s GOOOO Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if Tony tries. Having Goldberg back on Turner for the first time in like 22 years would be a big deal.
