His last few runs may have stunk. But that 2016-17 WWE return was pretty damn good and made for some good TV. His return did have it's moments. The build-up to his Mania match with Brock was well done, the match itself may've been a short one but it was a big improvement from their last Mania match. And the Ziggler segment he did was fun.

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. So help me, if Goldberg does his usual Goldberg stuff that people got sick of in WWE, but it’s OK in AEW because “He’s doing it on Turner, so it’s like WCW”, I’m calling mondo shenanigans. (Unless he does deathmatch stuff like Sting)

I just get why WWE kept bringing him back and Khan would reach out is all.

Goldberg even at his best really does nothing for me, and I haven't enjoyed Sting's comeback run, so not exactly dying to have him in AEW.

I thought Goldberg's initial return did a lot to re-establish Goldberg as a legend, but the moment they decided to put the title on him (twice) things went down the crapper real quick.
There's still money to be made with Goldberg as a special attraction but you have to really understand what he can do or is willing to do... now watch him go to AEW and decide he wants to be like Sting and start jumping off of balconies at all the big shows for AEW... or even try a code red (yes Sting did that as well)

The most interesting thing about his last run was having his 15 year old son ragdolled by Lashley.
Goodbye Bill, I know a certain Canadian who will be very happy if you never appear anywhere again.
I never much liked Goldberg, but I always respected how honest he was that he was there for the cash. I'd be amused to see him show up in AEW.

I thought Goldberg squashing Brock was cool until I realised it was a smokescreen for Goldberg not being able to wrestle.

Goldberg is a realy nice likeable guy and at his peak a beast of a talent.I think Bret and his fanbase are very harsh towards him in terms of what happened there. He was always going to struggle returning to the ring in this day and age,not his fault how badly they booked him.

Oh FFS, please don't let him join another promotion. Definitely keep him away from Adam Cole.
That said I did like him squashing Ziggler, and Rodney Mack many years before that. Wouldn't be completely opposed to him doing a similar quick squash of a lower tier loud mouth heel as one-off (or a few times a year) but nothing more.

I enjoyed when he first came back to squash Brock at the Survivor Series 2016 PPV, but anything after that was overstaying his welcome IMO.

I got a Goldberg chain wallet in the clearance bin in 2003 for like $2.00 at Marshall's.
That's all I have.

Dude should be done as far as in ring stuff goes. His shoulders are wrecked hence why he looked like he was going to kill someone in ring with the Jackhammer.

I mean dude seemingly can barely do one of his two moves... it's probably time to just hang it up for good.

The Goldberg WWE Finale should have been an appearance on Ding Dong Hello where he headbutted the door too hard and folded so hard his brain played the Windows XP shutdown music and Bailey pinned him like LOOK BITCHES I JUST BEAT GOLDBERG

Nothing of value in 2023 was lost, sad to say.
