WWE Hall of Famer Bill Goldberg has warned GUNTHER not to talk bad about him again following their confrontation at WWE Bad Blood 2024.
At the event, GUNTHER admitted that his previous comments supporting Goldberg were fake and called the WCW legend a “one-trick pony.”
This resulted in Goldberg wanting to fight the WWE World Heavyweight Champion, who would instead be ambushed by Sami Zayn.
On a recent edition of his “Car Cast” podcast, Goldberg addressed his confrontation with the World Heavyweight Champion. He said,
“I took Wanda and Gage to an event in Atlanta. I was in Atlanta for some business, filming a TV show. WWE extended an invitation and we came and experienced it. I don’t know how many live events I’ve actually experienced in that situation. It was cool. It was a great invite. Gage had a weekend off.
“I should have known. I should have known somebody was going to try and mess with me. In Atlanta, no less. We were having a great time. Gunther, I don’t want to make anything more of it than it was, but [groans]. You know me, I’m not going to sit there and let some dude talk s***. Period. End of story.
“What started out to be an innocent attendance of a pay-per-view turned out to being insulted by one of their current champions. I don’t care where we were, I would have done the same thing anywhere.
“It being Atlanta, my adopted hometown, I ain’t dead yet. As long as I’m breathing, don’t ever talk s*** about me, especially my family. When he brought Gage into it and me being a dad, that was it. It was nothing more than that. Next question.”
It has been rumored that WWE plans to have Goldberg vs. GUNTHER at a future pay-per-view event, though this match has yet to be confirmed.
Goldberg hasn’t wrestled for WWE in over two years and has spoken in recent years about wanting a retirement match before leaving the ring for good.
