Goldberg open to another WWE run

It’s fair to say that Goldberg’s last run in WWE was rather dramatic. Defeating Brock Lesnar in less than two minutes, becoming Universal Champion and then dropping the belt to Brock at WrestleMania 33…all in the space of six months.

Since then however, very little has been heard or seen of the man, and it seemed like this cameo run would be his last foray into in-ring competition.

Now though, it appears that Goldberg could be persuaded to don the trunks once again. Speaking to Justin Barrasso of Sports Illustrated, he said:

“I don’t really foresee that happening, but if Vince [McMahon] picked up the phone and asked me to do something of that magnitude, I’d have to listen. It’s always a possibility. If it’s just a money grab or it’s just a thing to throw me out there, I’m not interested.

“The biggest issue there is storyline. I don’t do things just to do them. If they can come up with a story or a reason for me to go back comparable to what they did last time, I’m in.”

He also discussed his most recent run in the company, describing it as “everything it could have been”.

“The last run was so special. It was everything it could have been, I believe, storyline-wise. As a whole, I couldn’t have asked for much more. All things considered, nothing that they put out there is ever guaranteed to succeed, but I think the stars aligned. It was the right time and the right circumstances. I don’t know if the stars will align like that again.”
