It's been quite a ride for WCW legend Goldberg since his return to WWE a few months ago. He feuded with Brock Lesnar, won the Raw Universal Title, and defended it against Lesnar in one of the biggest WrestleMania 33 matches on the card.
After losing the title to Lesnar at WrestleMania 33, many fans and analysts have been wondering if that was it for Goldberg, and his post-Raw promo may have just seriously hinted at this being it.
Via Cageside Seats:
"Ladies and gentlemen, this ain't part of the show. Here are the facts: the facts are in October I was approached to make a return after 13 years. There was a hell of a lot I had to think about. Physical limitations, age, desire; by the way, this ain't no damn script. I'm speaking straight from my heart so I would appreciate it if you would listen. Sure, you may have wanted that invincible sum bitch you saw 13 years ago but the fact is things change just a little bit. I am still that guy but I'm a guy whose focus has moved directly to his family. As human beings, for the right reason, we can accomplish great things. I like to think that doing it for my family, and the WWE Universe, is the right reason. You guys gave me the opportunity after 13 years to share a part of my life that you never saw. The past number of months have been an unbelievable ride. I'm the luckiest guy in the world to be given an opportunity to come back and to show you a little piece of what I used to do. You can boo me, or you can cheer me, but the fact is that little boy right there is the reason why my heart still beats, is the reason why I wake up every damn morning and go to the weight room and drive my ass into the ground to try to become something that he can be proud of. I think over the past number of months we've accomplished what we set out to do. And I hope you appreciate the opportunity from these fans and all the people in the back that we've been given because it's once in a lifetime. I love you both more than can be quantified. And I think we've proven that by me living in the gym, living in the bathroom for god's sake, and living at the dinner table for the past six months so that I can come out here and be a little glimpse of what I used to be."
Goldberg's promo revealed a lot, and it was nice to see WWE give the legend an opportunity to speak from the heart and open up about the process and give his family one last wrestling moment for now and possibly ever.
Goldberg did, however, end the segment, in classic wrestling fashion, "never say never" to a potential return down the road.
