WWE Superstar Ryback was in India over the weekend in order to promote the upcoming WWE 2K14 video game. The game will be released in North America on October 29 and internationally on November 1. During his time in India, Ryback spoke to reporters on a number of topics such as the constant “Goldberg” chants he receives.
When asked about these Goldberg chants, Ryback said the following:
“When I first started with WWE, I did not get them right away. But then the WWE.com website actually posted an article because people that run the website aren’t necessarily the ones at TV, and they wrote that I channeled Bill Goldberg before my matches, which is completely false. So whatever creative genius did that… a bunch of people read that article on the .COM, and the chants started a week after because of that brilliant article that was posted.”
He then went on to say the following:
“It’s something that never bothers me, but I’m a man of my own identity and eventually the people that keep chanting it, they’re going to make me a ton of money because I’m going to have to beat him eventually. We’ll get him back and I’ll beat him.”
