I actually want Goldberg to win the WWE Title. Just to see people’s heads explode. Has anyone won a World Title in four different decades?
Taker didn’t do it. Hogan didn’t do it. Rock didn’t do it. Triple H hasn’t done it. Flair didn’t do it. Verne didn’t do it. Thesz didn’t do it.
Goldberg being the first guy to do that sort of thing would be pretty lol. And not entirely in a bad way. It’s got this weirdly epic story to it — the “flash in the pan” and WCW man of the 90’s comes back and kicks ass enough time to make the ultimate stamp of longevity.
If you’re going to lean on older stars, it makes sense to have them hit some major achievements too. And given that they’re in such a period of overexposure for their full-time guys, it’s far from the silliest move for the immediate future.
Give me Goldberg beating Drew and then getting his win back at Mania against Braun Strowman. If you want to go big gimmick with it, because fuck it, do a four-way with Orton and Trips. Orton wants to kill the ultimate legend, Triple H wants the same achievement, Braun beat Goldberg last year. Goldberg Spears them all into oblivion. Or just make them singles matches throughout the year. There’s a story in each. Goldberg then drops the belt to someone actually special that comes along.
