    In two weeks I’ll be telling everybody about the whole story “

    Asked he if signed an NDA, Goldberg said, “Let’s just say that.”

    Two weeks you say; wonder if it’ll be a nothing burger and you’ll never hear about it again…

    So for anyone that doesn’t read the article, he wasn’t happy with some things but can’t speak on it yet… As to the NDA, I imagine with TKO now running the show that’s going to be worse than ever, you thought Vince was bad, TKO is going to be worse, maybe no sex pest bullshit, but corporate bullshit… take the countering AEW’s weekend with NXT & SNME to cover all the time slots, TKO people, evil.

    I would have loved for them to announce it in January and had a build up to it and do something like that, that I thought was maybe worthy of my career. Let’s just say they chose to do it with three weeks notice. It is what it is. It’s part of the package. It’s part of the meal you get dealt and I would be remiss in thinking I thought the meal would be different, but shame on me for thinking it would be different.”

    I agree, it was way too rushed, this should have had a build to it, this whole week of shows was clearly tossed together and given 2-3 weeks build just to screw with All-In, IMO.

    Also, Triple H and Undertaker and company still have their fuck WCW blinders on. Triple H loves '80s NWA, not '90s WCW. Look at how they did Sting, why would Goldberg be different?

    Let’s just say I’m pissed off at the way that I went out. I put so much into it and I don’t feel the effort was reciprocated to put a stamp on what I accomplished. I’m not going to say I’m not ecstatic about the opportunity that I got. I was a WCW guy. I think it could have been done a little bit differently, that’s all. I’m happy with my performance and the setting, but could it have been better? Absolutely, it can always been better.”

    He did put his all into it, I give him props for that, but I certainly hope he isn’t implying that GUNTHER held back, GUNTHER got a decent match out of a 60 year old man who has a minimal move set and cardio. I see he does agree with my belief being a WCW guy hurt him.

    “There are a bout 100 things. I did three interviews. Three in six months. They cut me off 30 seconds into my speech. You don’t do that.”

    NBC has airtime limits, although Peacock should have carried it, and it’s on WWE if they went long somewhere and your time got cut, hell in one part I didn’t quote he mentions being told something about it going online, maybe he just misread the situation. Besides, what’s the most WCW way you can go off the air… we’re out of time folks, tune in next week…

    I also find it humorous how he kept saying I don’t bitch/I’m not bitching about it and this whole thing was a bitchfest.

    I hope he says something after the NDA expires, for some reason there’s nothing I find more interesting than the old guys bitching about the company after they leave.
