10 Wrestling Facts We Didn't Know Last Week (Nov 19)
8. Goldberg Has Always Thought He's 'Horrible' At Promos
Those watching Bill Goldberg's return to WWE screens may notice something different about the man's promo style. Notably, he doesn't seem to be acting during his appearances. Everything Goldberg has talked about on Raw since coming back has seemed natural and realistic; the former WCW World Champion doesn't come across like he's reciting from a script.
It may surprise some to learn then that Goldberg isn't a fan of his own skills on the microphone. During an interview with NBC Sports, Brock Lesnar's Survivor Series opponent said outright that he feels his promos are 'horrible'. As it turns out, he always has.
Back in his WCW days, Goldberg wasn't called upon to do an awful lot of talking. Instead, he was a character of action - fans simply wanted to see Bill tear through opponents with ease and hit his Jackhammer finishing move for the win.
In Goldberg's mind, the art of delivering a spectacular interview has never been a strength of his. Today, he's just as down on his mic skills as he was in the 1990's.
