Even though Goldberg is one of the most successful professional wrestlers in history, he’s not exactly the greatest in-ring technician. In fact, his matches are often better when he doesn’t really do all that much, which has gotten him criticized throughout the years.
When Goldberg returned to WWE back in October of last year, the fans treated him like a hero coming home. But, their reaction towards him changed when it became clear that he was going to defeat Kevin Owens, and become the champion of the Raw brand. Then, when he became champion after a match that lasted less than 30 seconds, his lack of in-ring skill, once again, became a hot topic, but all the criticism doesn’t bother the current Universal Champion.
WWE recently put out a video where Goldberg responded to all of the people who say that he only has two moves. He also talked about his upcoming match with Brock Lesnar, which will presumably be the main event of this year’s WrestleMania.
On only having two moves: “The criticism, I use it all to fuel me. ‘Goldberg’s only got two moves.’ Well, I’ve only needed two moves. What am I going to do? Go out there and hit 50 moves and make it look like I’m everybody else?”
On his match with Lesnar: “Brock, I know exactly what he’s going to bring to the table: he’s going to bring everything to the table. But if they think that I’m not bringing something special back to combat Brock and what he can do, they’re nuts. I got a lot of tricks up my sleeve.”
