How did WWE push him wrong? He was still booked to be dominant, they just didn't have him squash jobbers and asked him to actually regularly fucking work a match for once.

I didn't say push him wrong, I said booked wrong. There's a difference there. I just feel if he was booked as the same dominant badass as he was in WCW, the character would have worked better. Yet, he was seemingly made to look only as good as, if not slightly lower than the WWE talent, especially HHH. That's not a knock on HHH, I'm a big fan and have no issues with him at any stage in his career, I just feel they could have made him look the same as he was in Atlanta.

Example, in WCW, either Ric Flair, Scott Steiner, or Kevin Nash could be in the ring, and if Goldberg came out, you knew they were getting their asses handed to them.

In WWE, HHH, The Rock, or Brock Lesnar in the ring, Goldberg comes out, and you think that he can hold his own if he's lucky.

Maybe that was just view on things, I dunno. But that's how I viewed it

So because WWE didn't book him to make everybody his bitch, he was pushed wrong. If the only way you can get over is to squash everybody, you aren't that good.

You're being quite hostile, I wasn't saying that. Obviously I'm not getting my view across properly, and it's one I'm certainly not in anyway trying to say you have to agree with. It's just how I looked at the situation. Let's just leave it that, if you're getting this angry at my opinion, I'd rather not discuss it with you further
