See those shorts in the above picture (and apologies if you've suddenly been confronted with that whilst idling away at work - though really, it serves your indolence right)?

That's what Goldberg planned to wrestle in during his second comeback.

The slightly bigger man got doubts on the scarily skimpy number when, despite the obvious approval of his wife, his son Gage burst out laughing when he saw his father looking like an underwear model. WWE's resident costume designer Terry Anderson waved her wand, and Saudi Arabia was spared the moral panic of Goldberg's bulge. Heck, such indecency could have got him arrested.

Benjamin was born in 1987, and is still not dead. He variously enjoys classical music, old-school adventure games (they're not dead), and walks on the beach (albeit short - asthma, you know). He's currently trying to compile a comprehensive history of video game music, yet denies accusations that he purposefully targets niche audiences. He's often wrong about these things.
