So most of you may probably know this  guy GOLDBERG .BILL GOLDBERG is a top ranked pro athlete and a wrestler  who is currently a fighting his way to get back in WWE.

But do you know that Goldberg has some top  rated facts about him.GOLDBERG is the true force of nature.The hulking behemoth showcased his immense strength and sheer athleticism when he wrestled for both WCW and WWE. In fact he  has gone down as a fan favorite despite relatively poor booking in the WWE, and for good reason.GOLDBERG was incredibly entertaining to watch and now that he and the WWE are on better terms the WWE has allowed him to show his ass kicking once more.

So now let’s talk about the top 10 facts about BILL GOLDBERG.

NO 10.

A ton of wrestlers past and present have had some sort of stint with AMERICAN FOOTBALL,but GOLDBERG took it to the next level.GOLDBERG first played for the UNIVERSITY OF GEORGIA before going pro and playing for the LA RAMS in the NFL.He was drafted back in the 1990 and played as  defensive back for a full year in LA,before moving to the ATLANTA FALCONS and plying fourteen games.Unfortunately however GOLDBERG suffered an injury,an abdominal tear,during a preseason game and was unable to make a return to the NFL.Bill Goldberg looks on

 

NO 9.

When people say GOLDBERG was a dominant force in wrestling,they aren’t exaggeration.GOLDBERG debuted in WCW in 1997 and for well over a year ,he was undefeated.GOLDBERG went on to achieve an insane 173-0 recorded before ultimately being defeated by KEVIN NASH after SCOTT HALL interfered and hit him with a TASER.Yes he may have faced some less than stellar opponents along the way,but this crazy undefeated streak is impressive nonetheless.

NO 8.

When GOLDBERG left the WWE,he is moved on to other things in the entertainment world.He starred in movies,TV shows and even has his own podcast.At one time Goldberg served as an analyst with SHOWTIME and was covering MMA,which allowed him to work with the recently deceased KIMBO SLICE.He spend the day working out with KIMBO before his fight with TANK ABBOT and the two seemed to get along great with KIMBO even saying :

                                            “I am the BLACK GOLDBERG.”

 As a fan of MMA it was awesome to see these two come together.Rest in Peace KIMBO.

NO 7.

Looking at GOLDBERG you might not expect him to be an animal person,let alone the owner of multiple cats.His trio of cats are named Moe,Larry and Curly after the three stooges.In fact a,GOLDBERG loves animals so much that he is a vocal member anti animal cruelty foundations and has lobbied in congress to protect animals from illegal fighting and even more surprising GOLDBERG has a pet goat who is hilariously named GOATBERG!

NO 6.

While employed by WWE,GOLDBERG got into a real altercation with fellow superstar CHRIS JERICHO backstage.Apparently GOLDBERG was talking smack about JERICHO to  a group of people at the back.One of those people turned out be a friend of JERICHO’S who reported what was said.JERICHO then proceeded to confront BILL where the two exchanged words and then got physical.Though the details a scarce,we do know that JERICHO put GOLDBERG in  a headlock,with unconfirmed rumors saying Goldy was taken down twice.To make matters worse,this all went down on Goldberg’s first day in WWE!

NO 5.

Even though Goldberg likes his little cats,he also loves big animal muscle.Goldberg absolutely loves his vintage cars,owing more than 25 himself.He has taking a liking to Old American classics,owing a PLYMOUTH BARRACUDA, a SuperBoss 429 MUSTANG,and a shellby cobra 427 just to name a few.GOLDBERG definately has one of the best car collections of any wrestler,with only JOHN CENA beating him out in my opinion.

NO 4.

In a funny turn of events,Goldberg got into pro wrestling because of his career ending football injury.While trying to rehab his tear at an Atlanta gym,he got the attention of both LEX LUGER and STING who were working out at the same place.GOLDBERG was detemined to stay in shape and get his body as close to 100%as he could.Sting and Lex saw this monster in the GYM and approached him,suggesting that he should try getting into wrestling.In the end,his injury turned out to be one of the best things that ever happened to him.

NO 3.

By looking at him,I don’t think many would guess that Goldberg is a vegetarian.His diet choice stems from his love of animals as he refuses to be a part of any sort of cruelty towards them.This is extremely surprising given his insane physique,as many people in the fitness world claim attaining such muscle mass is nearly impossible on a vegetarian diet.Well clearly those people are wrong.Goldberg has even appeared is one of the PETA,S celebrity cookbooks where he showcased his recipe for one of his favorite dishes.

NO 2.

Though he is known for being a bit rough in the ring,there was one particular instance where Goldberg botched a move and seriously hurt another competitor.At a WCW pay-per-view event Goldberg was facing of with BRET “THE HITMAN” HARD for the world title.Near the end of the match,Goldberg delivered a kick to the head which unfortunately landed perfectly.This gave Bret a serious concussion one that was so severe it led to his retirement soon.To simplify it,Goldberg ended Bret Hard’s career.To be fair it was obviously an accident and GOLDBERG has expressed extreme remorse for what happened,but this just goes to show how dangerous wrestling can be.

NO 1.

As you now know,Goldberg went on an insane win streak that lasted a long time.However even after the streak ended Goldberg was even defeated a handful of times in his career.Throughout his time in both WCW and WWE on the main roster,Goldberg was only pinned 5 times with none of these losses been clean.GOLDBERG has truly one of the best records in wrestling history.
