Bret Hart Is Not A Fan Of Goldberg’s Talent

Posted: Oct 19th 2020 By: Fazza's Thoughts - Bodyslam.net

On the most recent edition of the Confessions Of The Hitman webseries, Bret Hard discussed Bill Goldberg and his lack of ability when it came to the wrestling ring. This isn’t the first time that Bret Hart and Goldberg have crossed paths. During their WCW days, Bret received a head kick from Goldberg which effectively ended Bret’s career, due to a concussion.

Here is what Bret had to say on Goldberg,

“[Goldberg] was a gorilla,” Hart recalled. “[Goldberg] was a guy that nobody seemed to have taught how wrestling really works. He seemed to think he could just pick a guy up and just slam him through the mat as hard as you could and that was good wrestling. But I always liked Bill as a person. His wrestling, his workrate was 0/10. Like, everything he did hurt – everything! He could tie up with you and hurt you. He’d tie up with himself and hurt himself!

“Bill was one of those types of guys that I don’t think understood ever that it’s supposed to look like it hurt but it’s not supposed really hurt. And he had so many people praising him because he’d run you over like a car. Like, he’d football tackle you with no pads on. He’s all jacked up and roided up, and he’s about 280 lbs. You might as well have a real car just drive over top of you. He’d line up and just run you down, knock you down, and hurt guys. I asked, ‘how does he do that without hurting everybody?’ And everybody he worked with would come to the back holding their ribs. Guys would have tears in their eyes from how much pain they were in, and he was a really reckless and dangerous guy to wrestle.”
