WWE got Goldberg and sorry to say this, they pretty much treated him like damaged goods all through his tenure there. Management in this level of the show is, as we know, very cutthroat. Goldberg was a dominant force in WCW. We know first and foremost he wasn't that caliber in WWE.
They gave him a title run and had him beat Triple H cleanly. Ok, Triple H jobbed to him....finally. That's the fucking highlight of Goldberg's time with the company, imo.
There were some amusing moments.....
His brief feud with the Rock where he confronted Gilberg.......
There wasn't much else memorable. They didn't try to make Goldberg do comedy, they wanted him to have a personality....of sorts. With all due respect to him, Mr. Goldberg is a bit naieve to think that at the state of WWE and with people like Triple H having as much clout as he does that his expressionless, nonchalant demeanor would be profitable as long as he was kicking ass. WCW folded for a reason, and even though that's not one of them, he was going into a different ballgame. Too much competition for his character, they simply misused him. End of story.
