Goldberg Credits WWE Hall Of Famer For His Streak

Everyone remembers Goldberg for his legendary WCW undefeated streak. WCW didn’t get many things right in their later years but Goldberg’s streak was one of them.

During his appearance on WWE’s The Bump, Goldberg credited two men for his streak. They were WCW commentators Mike Tenay and Bobby “The Brain” Heenan. Here is the full quote, courtesy of Wrestling Inc.:

“Well, I think Tenay and Heenan were the ones that really pounded it in there. Obviously, with the doing commentary, Tenay has that direction where we want to go. He grabs the crowd and pushes them toward that direction. He had about everything to do with the excitement that surrounded it. I mean, I took care of the physical part, but you have to set it up properly, and they did an absolutely stupendous job at doing their job each and every night. I think they both had an integral part in the streak.

We all know Bobby ‘The Brain’ Heenan’s place in this business; he’s royalty. For him to personally and professionally take time out of his career to help me along, I could never thank him enough or appreciate enough as to what that man did for me, the business, and WCW. Personally, I’d be remiss in saying that he wasn’t an integral part of what happened. You know, you could group a list of characters as far as the importance of the streak and he’d definitely be in the top-three people mentioned.”

Goldberg also recently revealed his intentions to return to WWE once again. He has a number of opponents in mind but the main at the top of his list is Universal Champion Roman Reigns.
