Since Bill Goldberg’s WWE contract expires in 2022, speculation has been rife about his next move. Recently, on “Busted Open Radio,” Goldberg floated the idea of a world-class skating tour of his own, a topic that has divided the wrestling community. Former WCW President Eric Bischoff criticized the idea and reiterated his position on the “83 Weeks” podcast. Bischoff believes that Goldberg should focus his farewell match on a special place, preferably England.
Bischoff’s opinion: England’s last step against The Goldbergs
Eric Bischoff, known for his influence in WCW and his deep knowledge of wrestling, praised the strength of the British wrestling scene as a good place for Goldberg’s style. In his words, “The wrestling scene in the UK is very strong. If I were promoted I would be my first choice, if not I would be Bill Goldberg, then the UK.”
Goldberg’s Travels in England
Reflecting on Goldberg’s impact, Bischoff showed how much influence the wrestler had in the UK during his illustrious career in WCW and WWE. “Bill Goldberg has a huge footprint in the UK based on his time in WCW and everything he’s done on Nitro and of course his recent run in WWE,” Bischoff said. “You know he has a big presence in England and you know there’s a market there.”
Uncertainty in needs
While Goldberg hopes for a final match, uncertainty remains. The fighter was initially undergoing treatment for a hamstring injury to correct an injury he suffered in 2016, adding complications to his plans.
The Road Ahead for Goldberg
As Goldberg contemplates his wrestling future, the advice from Eric Bischoff presents a compelling case for a UK farewell match. The strong wrestling community, combined with Goldberg’s established presence, makes it a fitting venue for his final bow. Nevertheless, the path to reach that final game is filled with obstacles, such as vital medical procedures and the organization required to coordinate such an important occasion. Fans across the globe will closely watch to see if Goldberg listens to Bischoff’s guidance and finishes his successful career on a positive note in front of his loyal UK supporters. The wrestling community is eagerly anticipating the last chapter of Goldberg’s illustrious career, wishing for a finale that pays tribute to his legacy and entertains fans for one more time.
