#InsideTheRopes did yall see when #BillGoldberg was on the #BrokenSkullsession interview with #StoneColdSteveAustin? (Live)
How old is this?
Brett holds grudges..
Inside the Ropes Goldberg is the man merry Christmas to you
Inside the Ropes i loved watching Bill and how he was as a wrestler and how he is as a professional. He was an idol of mine. He gave you that super man gimmick. He made it believable, Bill made me believe that I could do anything, Bill was the one guy that did entertain me. I put him up there with Hulk , Michael Jordan, Joe Montana, Ric Flair and many others, I eventually became an asst basketball coach at a small college cause I looked at Bills professionalism, he made me be who I was as a human being and made professional as a person. And I've never met the guy.
Bret never said he had malicious intent, but simply that he wasn’t trained or skilled enough to be a professional wrestler at that level.
He also pointed out usually when you kick someone in wrestling you bend the knee even if its just a little. Because either the leg or the other wrestler will have to give and it shouldn't be the other wrestler and that Bill was lucky till that point no one got hurt. He also pointed out that Bill didn't even look back to see if he was ok and that was the part that Bret took more of a problem with.
Exactly
Ummm Brett wrestled several matches after this including a hardcore match against Terry Funk. Brett was and always will be a great wrestler. but above all else he will always be a pre Madonna that cried when he couldn't get his way. He couldn't handle being put out to pasture plain and simple. Goldberg did nothing wrong. Brett just needed someone to blame for the company moving on without him.
@@timbeeson9818 You're being an idiot. Goldberg is my all time favorite pro wrestler ever but he screwed that kick up big time and he has admitted it himself. He was nearly 300 pounds of hard muscles and did some kickboxing training. He went way too hard on that kick, Rob Cahil is right, he should have had his knee bend and simply not put full force into it. He was reckless, he was way too big to pull off a quick kick with that kind of speed. It's not real fighting, he forgot that. And Bret's the one who had to suffer for it.
@@timbeeson9818 Goldberg is a trash wrestler, a 2 min match shit show and should have never been put in the ring with Bret Hart.
This video was longer than a goldberg match lol
Just as shit though
This meme is dead now
I am Groot it’s not a meme it’s factual
but not longer than his entrance 🤣
Ever see Goldberg vs Raven, or Perry Saturn? Just saying you're wrong.
" If I wanted to hurt the guy, he wouldn't have gotten up"- that statement sums up Bill Goldberg
Got double legged by a 5 foot 10 190 pound guy lol trash bag
Where is Chris Jericho?
Yeah, Goldberg is such an untrained and irresponsible ****
He would’ve been destroyed by Bret hart lol he is a real wrestler Goldberg can’t wrestle Bret hart will break him
@@MichaelBoldenIsMyName yes
kicking Bret in the head like that and saying if he wanted Bret wouldn't have gotten up.
all respect is out the window
If Bret hart wanted to destroy Goldberg he would snapped his leg
Exactly.
Literally
Fuck Goldberg, he’s an overrated prick who has hurt more people than damn near every wrestler…. Then has the nerve to say that.
I think you missed the point. He wasn’t being arrogant. He was a former football player so he would have killed Bret in a real flight it’s just the truth. I’m not a Goldberg fan but it was a simple accident
As a pro wrestler, Bill Goldberg has always been notoriously unsafe to work with. Ended Hart's career and nearly ended Taker's too. As a pro wrestler it is your job to ensure your opponent's safety.
💯 right! As a wrestler it’s all about safety not just hurt and try to boost your character at someone else’s expense
He is a competitor not an entertainer. So naturally he was in the WCW/WWE not UFC... what a joke lol. Honestly. Vince should never even have BEGUN to consider putting him in the ring with the Undertaker. Undertaker was the ENTERTAINER. The very thing Goldberg IRL appears to think is irrelevant and unworthy in wrestling. I am surprised Undertaker didn't permanently quit then and there. If you put anyone in the ring with Goldberg just because of Goldberg's mindset about this stuff then you need someone who can still take an extreme beating physically because of how stiff and unsafe Goldberg is going to be. More then they seem to understand Undertaker's rest of his life and retirement were at risk that night just because of how foolish Goldberg's mindset really is.
That is why he was likely also given to people like Kevin owens around that time because Kevin has a very self sacrificial mindset kind of like Flair often had or Mick Foley had.
Yeah and Owen ended Austin’s. Injuries happen. Everything is unsafe when you have 250lb + men jumping around in a ring.
Woah woah if that was true then he wouldn't have the respect that he has you don't here sting saying he was dangerous, Hogan, the giant, ddp, raven, Kevin Nash, hall , Orton, hhh, Batista none of these guys would say that this man had strength like no other two of the most powerful moves in wrestling and he studied MMA and those who talk bad about him are haters ok a choke slam hurts and a man running with speed to hit your chest area hurts it's not his fault some weren't trained to take that move
@@kabilan the only person who got judged like that and was sloppy with his moves and probably did hurt you on purpose was Ryback that's why he's not wrestling now
In Brets book he talks about how WCW not really giving him the medical attention he needed after the match. The concussion was bad but WCW allowing him to continue to work and take bumps made it a whole lot worse!
O well
Why didn’t he go to the hospital his self ?
@@joesmith7304
I was just about to say that. If he was that concerned about his health he would have stopped wrestling and said "hey I'm not well I need time off"
I don’t think he knew the scale of it until the chronic migraines started the next day. At the time, there was no talk of CTE or concussion protocol. And then the doctor told him it was over. In fairness, Bret was 42 and in the twilight of his career. He was banged up already.
To me imo Bret is just bitter he is bitter
I hate the way Goldberg uses this opportunity to boast about how tough he is by saying that he could have killed Bret if he wanted to. Really man? What kind of apology is that? You did not execute the move properly and as a result Bret got hurt.
Man never stepped into the cage which infuriates me the most.
Like if Brock Lesnar talked like Goldberg, he'd still be a dick...but he'd have somewhat of a point.
But Goldberg talks like he's a proven shoot fighter...he very much could of always trained MMA....but training and competing is a whole other level.
Jerico seen how he fights for real, talks about it in his book. Grabbing peoples throats, running at them with his head down, grabbing hair . I doubt he could do real mma as he kind of got exposed backstage for real. No one took him as serrious as he made out after that .
Bret harts a whiny little girl. Please stop it. Lol
2:09 “That’s one thing I’ll forever be remorseful for, is the misplaced kick, and he did kind of know it was coming”. Even in the attempts at an apology there is still the diffusion of responsibility and rationalization of what happened to Brett in that statement.
Bret is just a bitter vagina
Because he didn't end his career. Bret smashed his own head on the floor while putting Bill in the figure four around the posts. The only people who could possibly think that Bill caused this concussion are people who haven't even bothered to watch the damn match for themselves. Bret is writhing around in agony on the ground holding his head after putting Bill in the figure four - there is no reason for him to be selling a head knock after putting someone else in a submission, so it's real pain. It was never Bill's fault at all. Go and watch the match and then come back here and apologize to Bill for wrongly accusing him of something he clearly didn't do.
@@namikstudiosthis
@@namikstudios Yeah you don't know what you're talking about. He said he didn't pull the kick himself.
Exactly. He’s one of those people that thinks their shit doesn’t stink
“I’m a competition not an entertainer”. Guess Scott Hall was right when he said Goldberg was the biggest mark for himself.
yeah this is the wrong attitude, this is how you hurt people.
Scott hall was also an alcoholic drunk
@@MIGUEL-fe4uu yeah he was but goldberg has a worse reputation for hurting people lol
@@Motoko1134 i think hes just saying he's trying to be the best has nothing to do with hurting people
Bill you do know its pre-determined right?? No competition its already been decided..
Bret has had a very difficult time since the accident: strokes, divorces and so forth. One can't blame Bret for being bitter.
Hammer332 I don’t think he’s bitter he just calls it like he sees it and how he feels about it
I would be bitter also Goldberg hurt alot of guys in the ring not only Bret... They should have made him go back to wrestling school he was absolutely horrible in the ring and he had a big head... The only reason his matches were 2-3minutes bc he couldn't wrestle! That's why William regal exposed him bad in a match Goldberg had a bitch fit about it to...😂
I would be bitter too.
But holding the past to blame for his problems will never improve his future. If that’s the case, he’s just living.
Hes not bitter...jst fucked off how vince the devil screwed him...despite bret showing him respect in staying with wwf even tho he was offered stupind money by the better wcw....wwf/Wwe screwed bret and his allbfamily ..caused his bros death...stiched the fight in canada making him loose to a egotistical shawn..need i go on...im sorry if someone did this to me id more than punch him in his face in the locker room!!!
@@lmuriilo5803 What wrestlers did Goldberg hurt besides Bret Hart? I been watching since the early 90s and I never heard of any other story of him hurting someone. Atleast nothing to the point of their career being in danger of being over after said match with him. Goldberg wasn't perfect but he wasn't bad in the ring at all. His purpose was to be a Beast, so it wouldn't make sense for him to be out there having back and forth 20 minute long matches with anyone even if he was capable of doing so.
When he says that he’s a competitor and not an entertainer, he’s telling us one thing. He won’t accept that it’s entertainment. He’s such a competitive person that he just can’t help himself, and feels an impulse to show his ‘rival’ who’s boss in the ring. He’s that kid at school who trips you up on cross country runs just to get ahead of you.
I wish a real fighter in there like Kurt or Brock taught him a lesson
No, he is saying he wants to be about action, not promos and being on the mic as much.
@@BonVoyage861 brock lesnar did already
Goldberg is a good guy. He made a mistake. Both him and Bret took themselves very seriously
If he wanted competition should've gotten into boxing or mma not entertainment such as wwe. He'd be ripped into pieces there. Goldberg talks as if that kick is the only thing he botched. He's a serial botcher, God knows why he got much opportunities when he's that unsafe. A trained pilot accidentally causing a plane & an inept who can't fly properly crashing the plane is different.
"I'm a competitor, not an entertainer." That's not what you were hired to do Bill. You weren't hired to "compete", you were hired to entertain the crowds in a professional wrestling show. If Brett Hart, or any of the other great wrestling entertainers you worked with wanted to hurt or injure you Bill, you think you'd still be walking around? Brett Hart and Undertaker were two of the very best wrestlers that ever worked in the business and you nearly killed them both...by accident. They weren't "competing" against you, they were working *with* you to put on a show.
This isn’t about Goldberg being malicious, it’s about him not being a fucking pro in the ring!
Exactly. Goldberg sucked.
@@jimh.412 Dude had no actual wrestling moves.
Goldberg was bigger than Bret which was an issue for Bret with most of the people he fought. It means he was the one more likely to be hurt. Second Bret was getting old at this point his reflex's weren't as good.
Goldberg sucked as a wrestler. All he was, was a steroid jack @$$.
@@EM-tg4ft LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
When anyone is trained to wrestle, the first and foremost thing that needs to be embedded in your head is "ALWAYS PROTECT YOUR OPPONENT!!" Always.
Anyone who can't learn this rule has no business being in the business, period.
Hey shit happens you can't always protect someone while kicking their ass.
@emmy lite then he should be checked but nobody has that's why he is talking about it so cocky.
@emmy lite or Brazilian jiu jitsu
@emmy lite you said it right.
AJ Styles was a great example of this. His Styles Clash had the potential to really hurt someone if things went wrong. There was a time when he did the clash to someone and adjusted his move mid-air to avoid having his face go into the mat face first and possibly hurting the guy's neck.
Him admitting to not pulling his kicks is wild.
I like Goldberg, but justifying hurting Bret by saying "I just wanted it to look real" really isn't any sort of viable excuse. You're supposed to make it "look" like it hurts, whilst also making it safe. He could be a bit more contrite here
Proof that Goldberg was a sociopath, and in reality all his matches sucked cause he Had zero training, zero skills, and zero ability to work.
@@patrickohearn3442 Goldberg has had good matches
If he wanted it to look real maybe he should have tried selling his opoonents offence once in a while.
Yah that's messed up I thought Goldberg was better than that
@@louissmith5298 he could have fought in ANY combat sport if he wanted to prove something...ease to ruin guys whose job is to sell your moves
Honestly seems flippant about ending one of the greatest of all time's career prematurely.
He didn't just end his career, he ruined his whole life and didn't do a damn thing to make up for it. Never sent Bret a dime.
@@PatrickPierceBateman Good. Hart is a bitch and was already a millionaire.
But nice and smart on his part to take part in a hardcore match against Terry Funk and sustain a couple of hard, unprotected chair shots to the head after the kick in the head.
@@AlexYBITW Right and the kick is what screwed him up, nothing to do with those chair shots. Brett again, always complaining about everything. I never seen a wrestler who would win bitch moan and complain like him.
@@wilsonsmanz I don't know the guy personally and he DID have a rough go of it through his career like the screwjob, then being misused by WCW, his brothers death, and then his career being ended. However, he does come off as having been a guy even before all of that who would have been the buzz kill of a party.
@Andrew Todd Goldberg was the one who botched the spot you moron. If you ran somebody over with your car would you blame the guys who built the road?
"If I really wanted to hurt the guy..."
Already lost me. People get hurt by other people not because they want to hurt them, but because they don't care, or don't have the professionality/competence to do anything about their technique.
Nah, Goldberg makes a great point.. what happened was an accident, he's Apologized a thousand times, and has shown plenty of remorse in countless other interviews.. However, Brett Hart along with his fans can't ever forgive and move on. So I can see how Goldberg is fed up with it all. And tired of apologizing.
Also, It's true, If Goldberg legitimately wanted to hurt Brett Hart, Brett wouldn't not have gotten up off that matt..
@@DGS_1992dude basically admitted here that he didn't pull the kick yet you still saying it was an accident... can't be both, you realize that right?
Also, how do you know who hurts who in a real fight? You just need to not live under a rock to see most of the champs in real combat sports are not the most muscular or have the bodybuilding physic.
@@yunloy so brock lesnar, Francis Ngannou, Mike tyson, Evander Holyfield, jon jones must just be the rare exception of muscular imposing fighters being the top athletes for combat, eh?
@@DGS_1992 Francis got beat by Stipe, a man 50 pounds lighter. Jones is exactly the physic I'm referring to, which leads me to think if you know what you are talking about... in lightweight he was a skinny, slender fighter with skinny legs. In heavy weight, he's all bloated and looks soft. Have you seen any of his fights? My guess is not, you just went quickly to take a peek at his Instagram.
@@DGS_1992 Wilder got beat by Tyson Fury.
Paolo Costa, Joel Romero both huge muscular guys got beat by skinny Israel Adesanya. If it wasn't recorded in a real fight and it was fake wrestling, you probably say that if "Paolo or Romero really wanted to hurt Adesanya, he would have had no chance"
Nobody thinks he wanted to hurt Brett but he didn’t apologize for almost a year.
Yeah, 8 months is a long time to wait to send a phone call to a guy that you found out that you hurt within 24 hours. Honestly, feels like the guy just didn't care and moved on with whatever he was doing.
It's not uncommon to see wrestlers put on a hold to check if a guy is okay or apology, so that they don't think they were being deliberate. You can see why nobody has good things to say about Goldbergs backstage attitude.
@@CornBreadtm1 Bret reconciled but also retracted his statement and the reinforced it. Basically did a Pippen move to Jordan. I would like to believe Bret but after excepting the apology and then reverting back to hating Goldberg. Its a shitty thing on Brets part.
@@vagabond4576 meh, I don't blame him.
If goldberg apologized and tried his best to be better, Brett might have genuinely accepted his apology however if Goldberg continues to pretty much be an ahole (e.g coming back to WWE and messing up storyline) it's easy to understand why Brett would be upset despite accepting the apology. Goldberg hasn't changed and he has no intention to
He says Bret was an idol of his. Yet took 8 months to reach out after ending his career. Actions speak louder than words
Goldberg has apologized a bunch of times but bret need to get over it and I'm a Bret Hart fan but wrestling people get injured all the time on botched moves
It's not like Goldberg said yeah I'm a kick this dude and ahead and give him a concussion on purpose.
@@pp3k3jamailhe fucking admitted he didn't pull the kick. Dude had no business being in the ring at all. Hes a joke and I hope he never comes back.
@@pp3k3jamailGoldberg didn’t apologize until months later so Bret has every right to be mad..Not only did Goldberg end his wrestling career he did real damage to his life..When DLo ended Droz career with his neck injury DLo apologized immediately and paid off the hospital bill
@@pp3k3jamailHis apology was meaningless because his actions Show he deliberately The choice not to invest in training. He did not take pro wrestling serious And Is nearly paralysed the undertaker
Amen to that. Goldberg is a completely reckless individual, who shouldn't have been allowed in the ring. He knew what he did, I believe it was intentional, even if Brett doesn't!
From what I've seen from other wrestlers at the time. Goldberg was awful to work with. Not skilled enough to wrestle at that level. Dangerous. This is a good example of fears coming to reality.
You've probably just heard from Kevin Nash or other NWO members, it's not surprising because they always teamed up on him and people like you don't even feel bad for the NWO trying to ruin his career.
Nah that's just WWE nonsense. Bret smashed his own head on the floor while putting Bill in the figure four around the posts. The only people who could possibly think that Bill caused this concussion are people who haven't even bothered to watch the damn match for themselves. Bret is writhing around in agony on the ground holding his head after putting Bill in the figure four - there is no reason for him to be selling a head knock after putting someone else in a submission, so it's real pain. It was never Bill's fault at all. Go and watch the match and then come back here and apologize to Bill for wrongly accusing him of something he clearly didn't do.
Too bad, Goldberg made it more realistic
@@namikstudios I take it you dont know how that move is executed then?
To do the figure 4 on the ring post your opponent has to hold your leg in place so that when you leave the ground to put your other leg up you don't smash the back of your head on the ground. Goldberg let go of brets leg when he lifted his second leg up which mean bret has nothing to us as leverage so he falls to the ground and smashes his head on the ground.
Bret suffered 3 concussion during that match with Goldberg and all of them were Goldbergs fault.
Also you don't have a clue about fighting a superior wrestler will 9/10 best a someone who rely on pure strength.
Al bret would have to do is tie Goldberg up in a hold then wait while he tired himself out then go to town on him while he's gassed. Mma is dominated by this tactic
Also take into account that Goldberg didn't talk so whoever was wrestling him had to do 100% of the work for the rivalry, promoting the match was up to everyone else.
Goldberg is only who he is because of everyone else raising him up and having to work to his very limited strengths which are basically hes strong and he looks good. So they gave him a stupidly long and over the top entrance and a few power moves then had him squash everyone because everyone knew the longer he stayed in the ring the faster people would figure out hes actually crap.
Only person who got a good match out of him was ddp and that was because ddp layed out the match step by step and made him practice it for weeks leading up to the match till it was ingrained in him.
The fact Goldberg thinks he's some self made superstar is embarrassing. He was dragged kicking and screaming to where he got too.
Never would have gotten up? Bret was jacked in his prime and could have handled his own.
"I'm a competitor not an entertainer..."
Well, entertainment wrestling isn't about competition unless your talking about popularity or say in the storyline. In WWE and WCW you were an entertainer as the winner was already fixed.
@DCI Gene Hunt this guys an idiot. Im sure he's a nice guy to his fans (as I've heard) but he's considered one of the most dangerous wrestlers to work with. Funny how Hart was put in the ring w him as he was considered one of the safest wrestlers.
I get what he’s saying though. He works matches to look more like brawls. Bret hart is a pure pro wrestler. Ric flair is such a character, not that he’s a really good wrestler too but his matches are… him. Rey mysterio is a luchador. Current day Brock constructs his matches like damn near ufc fights. Goldberg is saying his mentality and approach to wrestling… is what it is. Up to you if that’s right or wrong, but he got his money.
@@eddieescobedo9975 so injuring another wrestler is part of his gimmick
@@demonsuckafucka6828 At this point it's pretty much the case.
I'm pretty sure he was only trying to explain his gimmick. He could've worded it better tbh.
He has every right to be angry Bill wasn't trained properly and the result was Bret getting hurt
Bret said he wasn't mad at him over that so much as he waited a long time to say anything to Bret about it, like an apology. Accidents do happen. People get overzealous. Bret was hit so hard that the part of his brain that controlled happy didn't work properly, so he wasn't in his right mind for a while.
@@The_Gallowglass I respect your opinion but this wasn't an isolated incident Bill has a nasty track record of hurting wrestlers
@@nathanwanner..44 Oh, I know. I was just saying that from Harts perspective he was more mad at the fact that Goldberg didn't say anything to him for a long time, til it was too late.
@@The_Gallowglass that is true I agree the same thing happened when Owen broke Steve Austin's neck
Bret put Bill in a figure four around the posts but smashes the back of his head on the ground while he does it. That's what really caused his concussion in that match, not Bill's sidekick. You can actually see him in agony holding his head on the ground after the figure four - there's no kayfabe reason for Bret to be selling a head knock after putting someone else in a submission hold around the posts, so he was clearly in real pain. If you watch the match you can see it as clear as day. It was never Goldberg's fault but he's been wrongly blamed for it all these years, even by Bret himself. Go and watch the match, it's obvious as all hell. Watch how Bret is in agony after smashing his head on the ground. That was it 100%.
I agree with you 100%. I found the entire match on dailymotion, watched it, and Hart took that same rope throw / side kick before he slammed his head onto the concrete, and was given the space by Goldberg to raise his arms to block the kick from his head, Hart also had to walk into that kick a few short steps as well, both times, and after his head SLAMMED into the barely padded concrete, where you could clearly see he was terribly stunned, Goldberg did the same thing with the rope throw / side kick the second time, Hart took 2 small steps off of the rope, but was still dazed enough that he did NOT get his arms up when he went into Goldberg's foot. Before the concussion onto the concrete, and the infamous "kick", Goldberg was throwing Hart around outside of the ring, head onto the table and railing, but both times Goldberg gave him the chance to protect himself properly with his hands and arms as he did, and it was Hart's choice to do that leg lock / sharpshooter like he did, tragically not thinking his head would impact concrete, HARD, like it did, so that was 100% on Hart, not Goldberg. If anything, Hart should have told Goldberg " I am hurt, let's end this" , but he stubbornly continued, and didn't seek proper help afterwards.
People are getting the wrong idea of what he means by “I’m a competitor not a entertainer” he was talking about how he wanted his character to be believable saying he doesn’t want to be like Ric Flair saying woo and running around the ring being goofy not wanting to entertain the crowd like that but wanted to be presented as a serious competitor to make the matches feel real and he’s right guy like Brock Lesnar and Bobby Lashley are like that and the fans like wrestlers like them but still guys like them have to be careful with his opponents
People hear what they want to hear
You summed it up perfectly and the people taking it the wrong way are acting like babies about it.
Ric flair ain’t goofy tho.....
@@Njbear7453 yes he is, and that doesn't make him less great
Nice mental gymnastics to get round that one. You should be at the Olympics.
When you want to give an apology but end up burying the guy.
Goldberg has apologized numerous times and Bret keeps bringing it up and harping on it and acts like Goldberg did it on purpose...Bret needs to just move on
@@dandybrian Brett holds a grudge so he can bring it up all the time to stay somewhat relevant. Which he isnt. Its always the has beens that are the most bitter.
Lol. Tries to apologize, but ends up insulting and burying Bret Hart and Ric Flair. Now I know why this idiot didn’t talk in WCW. ‘I’m a competitor!’ No. U were a pro football player that got hurt, made the transition to wrestling, never learned how to wrestle and was pushed to the moon. He can’t carry Bret or Flair’s jockstrap. Take urself too seriously much?
@@CaptFreedumb I really don't understand how people can defend Goldberg. He seems to be well known for stiff shots because he never bothered to really learn how to wrestle. This bs about "Accidents happen just let it go" is real rich when he complained not too long ago about Regal kicking him in the back of the head even though in that match at the time Regal was laying down and Regal is a million times the wrestler Goldberg is so I can just about guarantee you it was controlled. Goldberg even severely hurt himself when he tried to punch through a limo window because he's a bull-headed idiot. Now if he wants to apologize and leave it at that then do that. Don't say this complete crap about how Hart would've never gotten up if Goldberg didn't want him to. He's just a dickhead whose career is an insult to other wrestlers who have actually put the time in and aren't just in it for the money.
@Ziad Khaled So if I said "Americas do x" then that would be racism? Don't confuse nationality with race just because I hurt your little feelings, moron. See you're the one who started this by calling someone you don't know an idiot so don't dish it out if you can't take it, but I can see how you wouldn't understand how rude it is for Goldberg to say for no reason that he could've killed Bret since you don't seem to understand what a dickhead you are.
If he doesn't want to apologize anymore he could've moved on from the question, but instead he just added fuel to the fire completely unnecessarily. Your opinion on Goldberg being a decent wrestler is likely nostalgia. He was well known for being extremely limited in moveset which is why most of his matches were very short and why he got really pissed when Regal forced a long match on him. Regal is now a coach for NXT and known as one of the greats when it comes to technical wrestling. If you don't believe anything I'm saying then just Google it. I think it's obvious on its own, but go check the general consensus if you want to be stubborn.
"I'm a competitor, not an entertainer..." Ah, so you're not a pro wrestler.
And who are you? A hater?
@@jjj2619 but their job was to entertain and not to compete. If he wanted to compete he should have gone to MMA.
@@jjj2619 and im coming from a wwe fan who cheered for goldberg when i was young before i realize how unsafe he was when i got older. Dude should have gone to indie mma circuits. Dude not only injured bret and taker, but he also injured himself on his pre match ritual. Some competitor that is.
@@rovicjanrafaelroa8296 MMA wasn't that popular back in the day, and now everyone knows wrestling is scripted that's why they don't enjoy it anymore. He made the fans happy by making it look real, in today's wrestling everyone knows it's scripted that's why they miss the old matches where it used to look real, Goldberg wanted his matches to look real so that the fans enjoy it.
For real. It's like at that point go fight then you moron. Goldberg is a goof.
“If I really wanted to hurt the guy he wouldn’t have got up” Umm Mr. Goldberg I think the point is you’re injuring people without knowing you’re being reckless
I went and found the full match on the dailymotion website, and watched it. I will say that, Goldberg never really appeared to try to hurt Hart, and in fact, Goldberg flung Hart into the ropes earlier in the match and gave him that very same side kick, which in both instances Hart had to "come into it" off of the ropes with 2 small , quick steps, but the first time Hart protected his head with his forearms, the second time he did not get his arms up for some reason. NOW, the MAIN THING, was DEFINITELY when Hart drug Goldberg's to the ringpost from outside of the ring, wrapped one of Goldberg's legs on either side of that ringpost, and then, tried to apply a sharpshooter with Goldberg's legs hanging down onto the ring apron, he totally disregarded the fact that his head would hit the concrete, and the padding on the concrete was minimal at best, and his head struck the concrete HARD when he fell backwards and down to the floor, which had to be the cause of the most severe injury in that match, you can clearly see him dazed beyond normal for minutes, and was totally Hart's fault. I think when Goldberg did the second rope fling - side kick incident happened, Hart was still stunned from his head trauma and that's why he didn't get his arms up to protect his head. The rest of the match, Hart was thrown onto the announcers table, and metal partition, and was easily given a chance to protect himself from injury, which he did well, but putting himself into the position of striking his head that hard on the concrete is 100% on Hart.
Goldberg says if I wanted to hurt him for real he ( Bret Hart ) would have never gotten up! Goldberg looks tough but remember Lord Steven Regal completely schooled him & made Bill his bitch, so what would happen if Bret had wanted to be as unprofessional as Goldberg was & still is? Bret Hart would have wrapped Bill up like a pretzel
You do realize that what Regal did, was still fake.
@@alexh8613 It was a half-shoot. There is a difference. He was letting him know that he wasn't gonna let him get away with being stiff.
@@alexh8613 regal was grappling goldberg and confusing the fuck outta him. It looked like a half shoot where he showed golberg couldnt really grapple. It was not scripted and regal got fired for it.
@@Curt-iy7ck Regal got fired over it because it was supposed to be a typical Goldberg squash match and Regal went completely against that, making it appear to be a very even match. WCW wanted Goldberg to look monsterous. Goldberg was confused because the match was scripted to go one way and the person that was most likely calling out the match did something completely different.
Goldberg literally got chocked by Chris Jericho
"he would never have never gotten up" - Jericho says otherwise
Jericho locked him up before he could do anything.
"C'mon, mister mixed martial arts! C'mon tough guy."
*Gets up, get rolled over again.*
"That's two times! I got you down twice brother!"
It is said Jericho being the technical wrestler that he is he was he got Bil in a crossbow stranglehold and Goldberg choked. I do not quite remember what happened next but it seems Goldberg may have fainted
@@abhishekbal399 Just as he locked him up, the securities ran in and seperated the two.
@@bladey_0_10 Maybe. Because that move as described by Stu Hart is almost guaranteed to choke the windpipe of any man in less than 90 seconds.
"If i wanted to hurt the guy, he wouldve never gotten up." - yeah thats really smacks of remorse.
so meaning he would have been dead?
Why should Goldberg be remorseful for something he didn't cause? Bret gave himself the concussion when he put Bill in a figure four around the posts and smashed the back of his head on the ground in the process. Go and watch the match, it's as clear as day.
@@namikstudiosso, its ok then to kick a man in the head who may or may not already have a concussion?
@namikstudios sociopaths stick together
I admire Goldbergs honesty regarding the matter to be honest... he's stated numerous times he was never a wrestling person like the majority are... I agree if he wanted to he could have done more than give Bret a concussion
Anybody can hurt anyone in the wrestling business if they wanted to. That's not the point. The point is, as a professional wrestler in the entertainment business, you're supposed to "perform". Anyone can throw a real punch and knock out someones teeth, but your skill should be able to throw what LOOKS like a real punch but NOT hurt your partner. Goldberg is KNOWN to harm his in ring partners. It wasn't just Bret. He almost permanently injured Undertaker, he almost broke Haku and Jimmy Hart's necks in the same match by dropping them both straight on their heads, broke Scott Steiner's orbital bone with a botched punch, and others. This is just shows a level of professional wrestling incompetence.
I love when these guys say "I'm a competitor!" as if this is a professional sport with an undetermined outcome. Say "I'm a great performer!" instead. Makes way more sense.
You obviously don’t get it.
They're still competing to put on the best match / best show.
Well boxing is fixed too, soooo
And if he does say he's a great performer, he'd obviously be wrong, because he didn't perform good enough.
Obviously their competing! Vince keeps a close eye on whose performing the best, so in that game you have to be rutheless against the others to show that your worthy of being there, because if your not vince would have your ass out the door in two seconds. Your entire career boils down to how you compete in each match and how the crowd is drawn to you. Take the rock as a great example, that man put his heart and soul into every match, to ensure he'd put on the best match/show possible. If he didn't then he would never be where he is today.
Goldberg acts like he’s the toughest guy in the history of wrestling, but, like Shawn, every time he’s been involved in a fight, he’s never won
Young Bret would beat the crap out of Goldberg any day of the week.

In Bret Hart's book, he stated that Goldberg said "Watch out for the kick," before he threw him into the ropes. Well, Bret Should've watched out for the kick. Also, Bret was already considering retiring in 1997 anyway. It was just a freak accident, Goldberg apologized to him multiple times, and professional wrestling is not ballet. Atleast Goldberg never wore a shirt that said "Goldberg Excellence of Execution, I Just Ended Bret's Career!"
Similar to Owen Hart's Owen 3:16 shirt.
A couple things
1. Brett stated in an interview that it took Goldberg 8 months to apologize for it.
2. Brett was planning on retiring, but he still wanted to continue wrestling for a couple more years. If he really wanted to just stop wrestling, then he would have just taken the WWF deal as that was essentially setting him up for retirement, and not as a wrestler.
The rest are good points.
Bret did watch for the kick. Which is why he has his hand up blocking it.
@@adams6473 your mom should have swallowed
Injuries happen in Wrestling. It's just that simple. Don't get it? Allow me to paint a picture:
- Owen Hart nearly crippled Steve Autsin with a inverted piledriver.
- Sting ended Rick Rude's career, by destroying his back with a splash.
- D-Lo ended Droz's career with a powerbomb.
- Vader broke a wrestler's back with a powerbomb.
- Vader nearly lost an eye in a match.
- Goldberg ended Bret Hart's career with a kick.
- Goldberg, following the instruction of Scott Steiner, accidently broke his orbital socket.
- Meng nearly ended his own career by sandbagging one of Goldberg's powerslams.
- Jimmy Hart nearly got himself killed by not flipping for a overhead slam off of the top rope.
- Samoa Joe ended a Tyson Kid's career with a muscle buster.
- Bob Holly got his neck broke when he sandbagged Brock Lesner's powerbomb.
Oh and there's plenty more examples.
I mean come on those of you complaining about Goldberg. Do you really think that Goldberg was the only wrestler to ever injure another wrestler? You do what you can to stay safe, but at the end of the day, things happen.
Imagine if you were in Bret's situation. Upon having his stroke, Bret underwent intense rehabilitation when he was hospitalized. He had no choice but to retire from wrestling. If I'm not mistaken, Bret has to take some type of medication to decrease the risk of his having another stroke or anything related; thankfully he's been stroke-free for 17 years. Though I'm sure that Goldberg feels remorse for the botched kick, unfortunately he's not suffering the consequences of it. It's easy to say, "Let it go" when it hasn't happened to YOU.
Damien Jones whining ? Lol . Goldberg was a fake a Money pull . Never had his own identity. A stone cold knock off . Couldn’t wrestle if his life depended on it .
Damien Jones I’m 38 Goldbergs kick and spear isn’t impressing anyone . Goldberg was copycat no skill no talent nothing .
Damien Jones so you found a 2 move dimensional guy like Goldberg who I can’t even call a wrestler more entertaining to watch then Bret hart ?
Damien Jones Lol See you getting defensive I asked you a question an you buckled up . Your boy Goldberg was hot trash buddy . Bret was actually a wrestler . Goldberg was a juiced up bum that had no moves your worried about brets glasses worry about all that junk Goldberg was shooting up his ass. No one to this day considers Goldberg a wrestler . Except clowns 💯
Damien Jones lmfao only Goldberg fans are idiots . What truth people love Bret they hate Goldberg I can even have this convo buddy you don’t have any sense 💯👑
Goldberg is still a mark for himself lol. You would think the defeat at the hands of Jericho would have humbled him. The whole point is that he was dangerous in the ring, when he was supposed to protect his opponent.
Every wrestler is a mark bro! There isn't one wrestler that desires to have a career just to job others.
Wrestling in itself is dangerous. Goldberg wasn't the first stiff guy in the business. The Steiners, Rude, Dr. D, Brody, and so on were all stiff workers and potentially dangerous.
Bret was probably the most technical wrestlers in the business and deserves praise and respect. However, if you think Goldberg is a mark, Bret is ten times the mark compared to him.
Defeat? It was a backstage confrontation which led to Jericho trying to put him on a head lock and then the securities ran in to seperate the two.
@@bladey_0_10 exactly is lasted 5 seconds if that lol. I’m pretty sure Jericho even said if they actually squared up and fought Goldberg would probably win

golberg delivered that kick many times before and it was fine. bret was injured in the ring. it happens. owen hart broke steve austin neck.
they both called that spot. if bret did not trust goldberg with the kick, he should have called for something else.
goldberg looks more jacked since the last time he wrestled brock lesnar, is he planning another comeback?
headjaded12 probably
When was this interview recorded?
Is this old he looks jacked
He looks way bigger here than he did during his interview with Austin that just went up on the network the other day. This must be fairly old. He didn't tease shit during that interview, matter of fact I came away from it thinking that it seemed fairly obvious he wasn't planning a return.
This time more moves
I saw an interview with Hart after the various problems, in which he said: "You couldn't meet a nicer guy than Bill Goldberg". I'd take some of this with a few grains of salt. Accidents do happen, and nobody knows it better than wrestlers.
Hart has gone back and forth one week Goldberg is a great guy it was an accident, the next week Goldberg was a jackass who did it on purpose. Bret has never had a consistant story on this which is why I dont value what he says.
@@Jhoncena22 I have a feeling that's business, not necessarily fact.
Paul Wallis: Bret's Canadian, he's just being polite.
Injuring people is NOT the act of a nice guy.
I don't care how nice you are, if you aren't professional and make careless dangerous mistakes in the ring, you don't belong there. Congrats on being an Ultimate Warrior clone. "I didn't set out to be a sideshow..." but YOU ARE!
@@pcbluepunk Hart said that, not me. You know where you can shove the insults, and yourself.
I’m glad he said he regrets it, but could be a lot more remorseful about it. The point of wrestling is to make it look as real as possible without hurting your opponent. That being said, Bret did have some serious head shots against Terry Funk after this match so it’s hard to pinpoint for sure what ended his career. It was likely more of a cumulative effect.
Dont forget Goldberg almost ended Undertaker's career with that sloppy suplex. He was a danger to work with.
@@oldmedstudent1750Undertaker nearly killed Goldberg with a botched Tombstone First in that match. STFU and stop being biased
@mitchelljohnson8303 not true. Goldberg has a history of injuring or almost killing people.
Owen Hart prematurely ended Stone Cold Steve Austin's career, but you don't hear Austin whining, moaning, bitching, complaining and trying to tarnish the legacy of Owen Hart, he doesn't even talk about Owen.
Babe that never happened quit making shit up
Goldberg definitely had his own style, but it wasn't "something different" it was Ultimate Warrior all over again.
at least warrior was entertaining.

Boom!
Not even close. Warrior was a cartoon character. Goldberg was based on Mike Tyson-meets-football player.

@@bigpoppapump4060 it was actually twice during a match and in the licker room. One tine they had a real shoot fight during a match that continued later on after the match off camera in the LR. Apparently Jericho won both tines as reported by multiple witnesses.
@@bigpoppapump4060 oh this was during their time in WCW prior to Jericho coming to WWE after his contract expired with WCW
Jericho was not 180 pounds. He was 220.
It took 8 months before Goldberg even apologized to Bret Hart for ending his career. Alot of the WCW wrestlers he squashed to get "over" with the fans, he legitimately hurt and or injured many of them..
While Goldberg might be one of the greatest legitimate fighters of all time he's also one of the most unprofessional, and undisciplined wrestlers in history.
My biggest thing is maybe Goldberg wasn’t the easiest guy to talk to outside of the ring, but when it’s about safety and about a good show, I don’t understand why more people didn’t try and help him become a WRESTLER
this is the same dude who lost in a shoot fight to Chris Jericho, and now Goldberg is talking about possibly hurting someone who is the greatest wrestler to ever train in the freaking Hart Dungeon and we all know Bret could shoot for real if he had to
Andrew Mossighi very true. But also Jericho used to be a bouncer at a club so had a good number of scuffles we don’t know if Bret ever did
Please; Bret Hart is a whiny bitch
bry tmz that is also very true
Moral of the story is do not fuck with Canadian wrestlers lol
The Jericho thing was confirmed by everyone there to be nothing more than a glorified push and shove match. It's not like Jericho knocked him out or anything.

I feel really bad for Bret Hart regarding this.
But on the same token, I've seen and heard countless interviews over the years since that incident where Goldberg has shown remorse and regret for that incident.
At the end of the day, it's an unfortunate incident that happened. No point in crying about it now because it's already done. Just have to move on from it.
Bill saying "I don't acare" and I'm "not gonna sit and complain about anything" is pretty selfish, he caused Bret Hart to have a stroke and Bret lost his ability to taste food, plus he lost his in ring ability and ultimately his career. Bret said he wished Goldberg could've sent him some money from the 3 million he made in Saudi Arabia for a 10 minute match. Bret actually has a wrestling background. All Bill has is Football.
It is hard to imagine how hard these performers work to make the moves believable without hurting each other. The timing and choreography that prevents more serious injuries is impressive.
Thing is, Bret can count on one hand the amount of serious injuries he inflicted on opponents in his entire career.....Goldberg hurts opponents almost every match he has. He may be bigger and stronger than Bret....but when it comes to skill and pure talent, Goldberg couldn't wipe Bret's ass. :)
he says he could've hurt Brett.. but oh.. man.. Brett coud hurt if he wanted to.. the difference is.. he had enough years to konw how not to
Bret Hart is one of the most overrated wrestlers in history.
@@deltawhiskey1398 Does that mean Stone Cold Steve Austin is also an overrated wrestler?.....because their styles were very similar. They both weren't exactly known for their high flying abilities but were more than able to put on an entertaining show. :)

@@MrCarpediem6 true Bret knows mma style wrestling legit wrestling skills he will kill Goldberg even Chris Jericho beat up Goldberg
I’m not saying the kick didn’t hurt, but Bret’s a big baby.
Many people misunderstanding the comment about Bret not getting up.
Using Jericho and Regal as examples is faulty because they knew what was coming and could shoot on Bill.
Bret knew a kick was coming, but what Bill is saying is that if he'd wanted, he could have acted straight in the back but then when he got out there, went into business for himself and kicked full force, like Sexy Star stretching Rosemary. He's saying he didn't do that, he just wanted the kick to look real and unfortunately, it looked a bit too real.
BRET came from a wrestling family and learned the ropes (so to speak) from his Pops. Number 1 rule was - don't hurt your opponent. Goldberg came from a football background where you try to hurt people. He didn't LOVE the biz they way that Bret did. Was Goldberg careless in the ring? DAMN RIGHT, HE WAS.
Owen Hart must've missed that rule. Sorry Stone Cold
Very true.
Actually, I never thought of it that way. U have a point. Running the ropes at full speed w/ a big strong guy who was still green.....might have been risky on Bret’s part. Goldberg probably had a hard time pulling his punches and kicks in wrestling, b/c in football u hit as hard as u can all the time. Goldberg probably needed more ring training and maybe Bret expected too much. Hard to say.
"Accidents happen." Says the guy with WAY more accidents than a lot of other people. At some point you just have to accept that YOU'RE the problem, Bill.

You're not going to just un-teach that attacking behavior overnight. Also, his entire appeal was the brutality/realism. Yes, he could have learned to protect his fellow wrestlers over time, but this is regrettably the price some of them had to pay for Bischoff's decision to push Goldberg so fast. It was probably the most exciting span of wrestling I've ever seen, though.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 thank you he was himself and that’s it huge fan of his forever
Doesn't mean when you play fight with men that trust you with their bodies, you can punch and kick them as hard as you can because in your previous job that was how you were
@@inconvenientfacts6452Goldberg trained all of his life to be a nfl player not a wrestler, of course he is gonna be dangerous if he isn't trained enough for being a wrestler, it wasn't his fault that wcw pushed him while he didn't have the skills to be a real wrestler
You absolutely can un-teach that behaviour overnight. "Bill, this is the WWE, not NFL. In the WWE, we don't kick people in the face really hard, okay? This is pretend. We make it look like we kick them in the face, but we don't really. Got it?"
Bro hold up keep that same energy for Owen ending Steve career short. At least Goldberg apologized.
He has apologised SO much and Bret still hasn't forgiven him. Life is to short Bret. Goldberg (for me) did me a favour so thank you Goldberg.
"If I wanted to hurt the guy, he would never have gotten up."
Yeah right, the guy who got his ass kicked by Jericho was going to take down an amateur wrestler who grew up in The Dungeon.
I think he was just referring to the actual kick. Meaning if he went all out and connected with intent to injure...but never getting up?? Can’t say I’m surprised he’d say that since most super star wrestlers are a bunch of megalomaniacs.
I was just about to post the same thing, LOL.
Goldberg was a pro football player., not an MMA practitioner. Those guys think they r tough until they run into someone that know submissions. In a fistfight, I take Goldberg over Jericho. In a crowded locker room brawl at close quarters, i’m sure Jericho could protect himself and keep Berg from hitting him.
I'm a huge Bret hart fan but he needs to let the Goldberg kick go.
As for fighting Goldberg for real; as evidenced by the Chris Jericho encounter, someone with real legitimate wrestling skills could defeat Goldberg. Kurt Angle, Bret Hart, Chris Jericho, Brock Lesnar, Chris Benoit, etc.
@rxp56 after that sad display, it's confirmed Goldberg doesn't know how to fight
Goldberg "If I wanted to hurt the guy, he would not have got up" Like dude, that is the point. Any pro wrestler could go out and hurt guys. The fact that your skill set can't live up to more than 90 seconds squash matches, proves you and Hart were never in the same league. Your legacy is built on squash matches, and Brets was built on quality wrestling story lines.
There are plenty of guys you can say that about though in all honesty. Warrior was the king of squash matches. He was a terrible wrestler. There are very very very few Bret Harts out there. That’s why we are still talking about him.
And yet who drew more between the two ?
@@AlexYBITW exactly. Wrestling is about drawing. That's even why Flair always says Hogan was better. He made the most money.
@@steveomac385 Yes ! Pro wrestling is a business, it's about money. It's crazy to me that so many people don't get that.
The simple truth is that pro wrestling is all about making your opponent look good. And Goldberg's problem is that he's NEVER been able to grasp that concept. He's never been about anything but wanting to make himself look good. Just by him admitting here that "he's a competitor, not an entertainer" shows how immature he is when it comes to accepting that pro wrestling is an entertainment industry. There's no competition in a pre-determined sport. And no, Goldberg would never be able to beat Bret in a shoot fight.
Someone should have told him he was in entertainment.
Brett Hart the most technical wrestlers of all time, from a family of wrestlers, experienced! if he says you aren't skilled enough, smart enough, have enough experience when it comes to wrestling then you don't. Period! He said Goldberg was reckless, he's right!
Bill was a power house slam and bam type of wrestler he was the face and Bret hated that talking about skills and charisma was there any of that when he wore a steel plated vest in a match with bill where was the safety there
Goldberg was a super hero who could anni annilate his opponents in seconds kinda like Mike Tyson in boxing the fight didn't last the first round but it wasn't like he didn't have other big man in there too. Accidents happen it's the business in Sports
Great technical wrestler or not, Bret smashed his own head on the floor while putting Bill in the figure four around the posts. The only people who could possibly think that Bill caused this concussion are people who haven't even bothered to watch the damn match for themselves. Bret is writhing around in agony on the ground holding his head after putting Bill in the figure four - there is no reason for him to be selling a head knock after putting someone else in a submission, so it's real pain. It was never Bill's fault at all. Go and watch the match and then come back here and apologize to Bill for wrongly accusing him of something he clearly didn't do.

You’re in wrestling like shit is gonna happen to you. I’m sorry but I’m not licking Bret behind. He has to stop the victim propaganda, it’s like everyone is all and except him. Idk if he has these things built up in his head or what then his fans are so brainwashed.
Like he always tells his stories like a victim way to much for my liking. As much as an amazing career he has, he’s to busy hating and shitting on Goldberg. I feel it’s jealousy because Goldberg is/was the better entertainer regardless of wrestling skills. He had a energy better than most guys. That’s why Vince made Brock Lesnar his own personal Goldberg. I’m sick of the BS with Bret and his delusional hateful fans has internalized his hatred.
One minute he loves wrestling then the next he’s complaining or saying disrespectful stuff about others or saying nasty comments then his fans laughs. No it’s unprofessional. Its business and entertainment not some real fight. He won’t let go of this stuff go and be a happy older man living life and proud of his accomplishments. Stop bashing these past wrestlers all the time for things that occurred ages ago. No one cares tbh.
A "competitor" in a ring when everyone is supposed to be entertaining. That's how Brett got hurt Bill didn't and still doesn't get it.
Crazy thing is if Bret wanted to be a “ competitor “ he would’ve snapped bills arms and legs within 5 minutes. Is sad cause bill still doesn’t understand how much Bret was carrying him during their time in the ring
Goldberg was never malicious. He just wasn’t very good at his job. Every match: punches, crappy leg lock, punches, power bomb, get other guy injured, spear, end.
To my knowledge the only guy he hurt was Bret, on an accident
Bret smashed his own head on the floor while putting Bill in the figure four around the posts.

qwerty ytrews: it's called "do it-yourself hormone-replacement therapy."
Aka STEROIDS.
Lets try to separate the facts from the rumor and innuendo: To begin with I cannot recall an interview where Bret Hart stated that Goldberg sought out to maliciously hurt him or end his career. In fact I have an interview somewhere in my collection where Hart expresses regret that his career had to come to an end at the hands of someone as good-hearted as Bill Goldberg. Hart's criticism of Goldberg over the years has had more to do with the lack of experience that Goldberg had in the ring at the time he wrestled him and that he didn't understand the psychology of the business in that he approached his matches as if his opponents were tackling dummies rather than human beings who could get hurt. In fact Hart references in his book that he was trepidations about working Goldberg at the Starrcade PPV and made a point to tell him prior to the match to be careful not to hurt him. Hart also mentions a spot in the match that took place prior to the head kick where he had Goldberg positioned for the figure-four on the post and Goldberg injured him during that spot as well. The reason being that in order to execute the figure-four ringpost spot, Hart needed his opponent to hook his ankle as he was applying the hold thereby delaying the upper portion of Hart's body (in particular his head) from rapidly hitting the arena floor. Goldberg didn't do this and as a result Hart's head hit thwack against the arena floor at full momentum as soon as he applied the hold. So the bottom line is Goldberg wasn't looking out for Hart during that match either due to inexperience or oversight or both.
jldraw this is helpful. More people need to read and comment about this
Goldberg is just a reckless goof. He knocks himself out and botches like crazy.
I know the very interview. The shoot interviewer I think started it by insinuating Goldberg was pissed off about the blame being laid on him. Bret said he never knew Bill felt like that.
Bret never said malicious. He said careless. I remember because the careless kick was a meme for years.
He was a one of a kind in the ring. Thanks bill for that sacrifice.
Goldberg had to keep his apology under 5 minutes
I appreciate Goldberg for keeping his cool and remaining respectful. The man made a big enough mistake that he regrets to this day. What else can he do?
@Skippy the Alien goldberg is sloppy as hell
Retire
@@sunstyle52 yeah , he almost seriously injured The Undertaker also
@R H because he's a danger to the other performers. Always has been. He almost killed the Undertaker with a jackhammer and almost killed himself by not tucking his head for the tombstone piledriver. Goldberg has been KNOWN for stiff shots and such
@@Xenovation3334 yeah he's a dumbass who refuses to listen to people more experienced/better than him
When a real move accidently happend...
People who actually think this kick ended Bret’s career are very very gullible.
Why does Goldberg talk like hes EVER won a fist fight in a pro wrestling backstage setting? Lmfao
Golberg "Im not going to complain, im going to go and do my job
Golberg the day of the saudi arabia paperview: "I want my character to be a superhero, so I want to go over The Fiend"
He literally just performed the match as it was booked. If you want to shit on someone for wanting to be booked like a superhero and never put anyone over, Bret Hart is right over there.
Goldberg wouldn't be the legend he was if he wasn't brutal. And he was the few believable wrestlers. He put WCW on the map
It wasn't just the kick, Bret mentioned Bill was sloppy the whole match: knocked the wind out of him with a legit elbow in the corner, didn't take Bret's figure 4 around the post properly causing Bret to fall and get spiked on the floor, Then the kick.
But WCW deserves blame for it too, their doctors misdiagnosed Bret, weren't convinced Bret was legit concussed and made him work through it for a while until he went to an outside doctor who correctly diagnosed it.
Bret has said Goldberg's a good guy and all but he wasn't trained well and injured a lot of people as a result.
I think a huge part of this is Bill probably being upset that he made a huge mistake that really hurt someone and they had to suffer for it. It's gotta be hard for a green wrestler to go 100 mph and not screw up.
Than he should have call Bret took time to go see him offer help with finance
@@anitarikard7038 taking care of another wrestlers finances isnt his responsibility. Thats the companies. Alot of wrestlers get hurt by other wrestlers. Look what D'Lo Brown did to Droz. Look what Owen Heart did to Austin's neck TWICE. Look what Undertaker did to HBK in their casket back and how that was the final straw for HBK's back for 6 years. Getting hurt comes with the job and yes accidents do happen. Thats why the wrestlers have insurance.
i forgive him, and i loved goldberg for a time, but he really took this shit way to serious. "im a competitor" and i know its his angle, but he does believe it to a point and held onto it to much. if he really wanted to compete he should of gone into MMA because without a real fight, whos to say who would win, goldberg talks all this shit about being able to kill everyone and its annoying, we know you were a pro athlete but there are a number of guys in the locker room who could kick the shit out of goldberg if they tried, but they never let something like that effect their emotions
It’s an easy explanation accidents happen in the ring even with the greatest trained wrestlers, from Owen pile driving Austin, to Seth Rollins buckle bombing Sting, to Sasha hurting Paige
Brett back then, would have kicked Goldberg’s ass! Brett was and is a tough SOB! He was taught everything he knows by one of the greatest, Stu Hart!
Goldberg has definitely matured a lot since his heyday, but he is showing some attitude here. I get it to a degree, but IMO, when he talks about hurting Bret, he should just apologize and admit his mistake. Over and over, whenever the issue is brought up. Had it not been for his misplaced kick due to him lacking proper training and experience (and professionalism), Bret probably would never have suffered a stroke, he could have a great run with WWE after WCW folded, etc. Goldberg with one kick derailed and damaged much of Bret Hart's life after 1999. So, you know, check your ego at the door motherfucker and just keep owning it, because Bret's paying a much bigger price.
You nailed it
No one is blaming Kofi Kingston for legit kicking The Miz in the head either. Austin never bitched & moaned & blamed Owen when he dropped Steve on his head.
Accidents happen. & Goldberg HAS apologized for it. Bret is the scorned asshole for continuously bringing it up. As great as he was & as Legendary as he is, he's almost always bitching & complaining about one thing or another.
I agree. Goldberg has said sorry many times.
Wrestling isnt ballet
And Owen hart would still be alive had there not been a malfunction with the cable. Stone Cold wouldn’t have broken his neck if Owen Hart performed the inverted pile driver correctly. Many wrestlers wouldn’t have been knocked unconscious had a move been performed correctly.
Shit happens. No one hurts anyone on purpose. You know all of this when you sign up for the business. Goldberg doesn’t have to apologize every time someone brings this up.
Izaan ur rehman fuck Goldberg
He says he was remorseful, not professional enough to pull the kick , wanted to make it believable, etc. I have heard many, many wrestlers say that they always watched out for the other guy , and by Bill’s own words , he did not do that !
Very disappointing!
Would you rather him say ‘yea I don’t care, I hurt him, sucks to suck’
@@collinsmith4492 I would rather Bill had been brought up slower so he would know better than to risk hurting the other guy in order to make it look good ! What he said meant less than what he did , and someone is responsible for his lack of training in the ring . Someone messed up and because of that a wrestler got hurt .
These guys are weapons , they need to be handled with care, loaded with blanks much like a prop gun . So the better question is who is responsible for putting Bill in that ring with full rounds ?
Goldberg is so dangerous that I pulled a muscle watching this.
the fact he said if i wanted to hurt him he wouldn't have got up..says alot about this guy
"If I wanted to hurt him he would've never gotten up" I'm sorry Goldberg but Brett Hart at that time would've stretched you worse then Jericho did.
Dream on
It's THAN, not then, Corey. Jesus Christ! Watch CM Punk's Grammar Slam vids FFS.
The thing about this is that both Goldberg and Brett Hart could probably kill a person pretty easily and it all comes down to who grabs who first.
Goldberg choked him, then Jericho put him into a headlock, and Goldberg picked him up while still being in a headlock, and he did a run with Jericho through a backstage door full of fans, and other wrestlers pulled them apart. That's it. Even Jericho said that "I was afraid to let Goldberg go because I knew he would kill me."
Goldberg 1998 vs 2014 Undertaker at WrestleMania XXX
Streak vs Streak
Vs me😊
1998 Goldberg is winning that
The undertaker will win but it won't be easy.
I'd rather see 98 Goldberg vs 98 Taker. Besides, WWE would just have Undertaker win if it has anything to do with the streak. Snore.
@@dagameplayer I agree, even back 1998, I always though undertaker could be the one to beat Goldberg but I would reather see 1994 undertaker vs 1998 Goldberg.
Both were just unstoppable back in these days so it interesting to see who would really win set for both got up from almost everything.
