10 Reasons Goldberg Deserves His WWE Hall Of Fame 2018 Induction
6. Worked His Tail Off To Get Back In Shape
If anyone reading this looks even 1/100th of the way Bill Goldberg does at 51, then they're doing something right. Again, that WWE 24 Network film showed the passion Goldberg has for maintaining his physique. He knew he had to look like the star people knew from his prime when he made that big WWE comeback, so he worked his butt off in the gym.
It was all worth it. When Goldberg returned and pulled on the trunks for a match with Brock Lesnar, he had turned back the clock. It didn't look like almost 13 years had passed since fans had watched him wrestle in MSG against the same man at 'Mania XX. That's a credit to Bill, his work ethic and determination not to let fans down.
How many legends would have had the energy to put in countless hours toning their body in just a few short months? Grafting to look like the powerhouse from his youth must have been draining for Goldberg, but he did it because it was what any in-ring return demanded.
Nobody wanted to see an out-of-shape veteran out there.
