Goldberg made a name for himself in WCW with his impressive win streak. The streak got a lot of fans excited for Goldberg and all he had to do was come to the ring, hit the spear and the jackhammer, and then he would head back to the locker room while the crowd continued to chant his name.
In 1998, right in the middle of the streak, WCW released a Goldberg video tape that included his most extensive interview up until that point. The video was part of the WCW / nWo Superstar Series. This video looks at that very tape.
#WCW #Wrestling
The 5 things I learned about Goldberg through this video are
1. Goldberg dealing with people that make fun of him is sure sweet
2. He thought Konnan was a bump in the road
3. His first nationally televised match was, um, his match with Hugh Morrus, Nitro, the 22nd of September, his coming out match, was, very taxing.
4. He looks at people now as he looks at everyone else as he looks at everyone else through the process
5. He thought the flock was a bump in the road
My grandma loves driving on bumpy roads..
On the konan podcast, they brought up that there was a rumor that konan was supposed to be the first one to break the streak
Suuuure he was
@954isme and on my podcast I brought up that I was going to break the streak, so Konnan must be lying
Also he doesn't like when victims get victimized, which can also be very taxing.
"I do my talking in the ring. Not on a mic, not at a dinner table, not out for drinks."
"... not during an interrogation, not in the church confessional, not during the recital of my wedding vows..."
Lol
Except when money talks
Not in a house, not with a mouse, not in a box and not with a fox.
So he never talks otherwise?
Goldberg was a man of few words and this interview was just a bump in the road.
😂
XD
it was an experience
🤣
I will say that he did well with almost 0 words and he did great work in the ring even though he wasn't that great in long matches that why a lot of them were 3 or 4 minutes long at most
“You make fun of me, you gotta pay”
Pretty sure this was everyone’s motto in elementary school.
WB mentions Gillberg as the obvious one, but I genuinely think Bill lumps Chris Jericho into that "making fun of him" category. Between the Greenberg stuff and Bill's comments on Disco Inferno, it's no wonder dude had legit beef with Chris.
Jericho "paid" by embarrassing him in the locker room in front of all the athletes that were head and shoulders above Goldberg in terms of skill.
Thinking same thing
Haha it definitely was in the 80’s
@@Rob_Thorsman
From what I heard Jericho grabbed him from behind and put a headlock or something on him.
If a person thinks coming up behind them is a tough manly thing to do, that's funny.
One thing I didn't know about Goldberg was how many bumps in the road he had. You'd think WCW would have paved that thing by now.
They can't afford pavement with Jarret smashing all those guitars.
What I learned:
1. Goldberg took care of business
2. He doesn't care about what happens outside of the ring
3. He'll fight anybody, anywhere *Even outside the ring(?)*, anytime
4. Bill almost got himself left off "Reliving the War" series for that cheap shot at Disco Fever
5. Billy is a wordsmith
So wait, if he doesn't care what happens outside of the ring how can he have a match anywhere but the ring?
@@CurlyFromTheSwirly Shhh! Don't worry about that.
This shows me why he didn’t do a lot of promos. That’s all I learned from this.
If he would had someone like Paul E. or Heenan I think he would have been more of an phenomenon.
I actually enjoyed the video. Did he say much? No, but what the hell is he supposed to say? They sit him down to do an hour long kayfabe interview about scripted wrestling matches that usually went less than 5mins each, so there wasnt much TO say. How many different ways was he supposed to say "....and l squashed the poor bastard..."? lol l mean what were ppl expecting? 😂
@@KoolKeithProductionswhat he supposed to say?
Anything.
There’s countless videos like this where the performers do have something to say.
Some even have new things to say that fans never knew before.
His interview was more boring than the one I got when applying for a fast food restaurant in high school.
@@Tyrone-v2r This interview was completely in character, though. That was his appeal, what got him over. Nobody wanted a talkative Goldberg!
@@KoolKeithProductions You're absolutely right here. It's not Scorsese, but I don't know what more anyone could expect from Goldberg doing a Kayfabe interview in his prime. He wasn't going to destroy his mystique for a VHS tape.
Were it not for this video, I wouldn't've known about...
1: Goldberg's childhood trauma involving a gerbil
2: Goldberg's hidden talent for Japanese floral arrangement
3: Goldberg's deep respect and admiration for Richard Simmons
4: Goldberg's staggering genius in the field of abstract algebra
5: Goldberg's unparalleled passion for Taco Tuesday
Thanks, WCW!
3: If it's Gene Simmons instead of Richard. We'll see Goldberg as "The Demon" instead of Dale Torborg 😆
5 things I learned about Bill:
1. How much of dunce Bill is.
2. How much business Bill dealt with.
3. Mungo was a better American Football player than Bill.
4. Bill quotes Newton, but thinks he is Einstein.
5. Bill has indeed came across many bumps in the road.
I remember my dad buying me this VHS it was on clearance at a movie store lol only reason he did. I was around 5-6 years old watched it religiously one summer with my cousin . Practicing spears
I remember my childhood friend having the rare DVD.. He was a big fan of Bill Goldberg that he was willing to use the allowance his parents gave him to buy this man's video and especially back in those days DVDs were $20.00 to $25.00 a pop in the states.. So after we watched it I know deep down inside he was pissed about it cause he watched it once and never mentioned it again.. I guess he was so disappointed in it that he literally stop talking about Goldberg and start talking about Steve Austin more.. 😂😂😂
@@kenrickeason this made me laugh, same happened to me a few times. I used to really like pearl jam and then one day I heard an interview with the singer. dude was such an idiot, I quit listening to them.
@@mustaffa1611 Bruh! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Damn..
@TheTitofan1 I don't know?? He never mentioned why.. As I remember about a week or 2 later (It been so long ago) after we watched this video I started to see him wear 3:16 shirts and mimicking Steve Austin's lines in school.. I think this video shifted his mindset from Bill Goldberg to Stone Cold.. I don't know.. I just know the changes happened after this video.. 😂😂
@@kenrickeason Maybe he just has a thing for bald guys? 😂
Five things I learned about Goldberg from this video.
1: Man of few words when having to discuss his past matches.
2: Hates Disco or Disco Inferno or theatrics. Something like that.
3: Bumps in the road make him edgy.
4: Hasn't experienced his future yet. Because yeah...
5: Still looking for "Whose Next".
A promo for Bill is just another bump in the road.
Bill's dome looks like another bump in the road...😂
This is why Kevin Sullivan wouldn't let Goldberg talk on the mic when he started. This man has all the promo power of a young Roman Reigns.
Even less . Jericho laughed as well
8:18 is just pure gold. Disco Inferno was considered such an inside joke by everyone in WCW that even the VHS production staff poked fun at him by messing up his own name! Bios needs to make sure to occasionally call Disco Inferno "Disco Fever" every once in a while during Reliving the War for the fun of the gag.
The WCW**
Best part of the video. I like how he pauses and just makes a choked laugh. Nothing needed to be said.
That wasn’t a gag, it was typical WCW incompetence. They misspelt Tony Schiavone as well.
@@Ian-Omega I figured someone would point out "Shiovani". Yes, it was all incompetence, I was making a joke, but Schiavone's name being messed up was simply a case of the VHS production staff likely not being given the names of everyone featured, so they went with a phonetic spelling.
Disco, though, had his name completely messed up! The staff likely heard "DIS-CO FEEEE-VER!" from his theme song & just thought that was his name. They could have called him "Disco Blaze" & it would have at least been more accurate. As Konnan once said in a jokingly dry way, "It's Disco"; don't take it so seriously.
I like how Goldberg comes up with these weird mathematical equations. Unfortunately, Scott Steiner never taught him math.
For shame; Steiner's math actually added up.
I had the Kevin Nash one. If I remember correctly it covered the Outsider debut til the Finger Poke of Doom. We're going back like 23 years here.
Nash's was so awesome! "And I was hypnotized by this song!"
Man, that Goldberg interview is like pulling teeth. Thank god for the entertaining reactions Mr. Bios.
5 things I've learned?
He didn't even care enough to fully shave his head for this.
Lots of people just seem like bumps in the road.
He knows how a battle royal works.
He likes to roll his eyes.
I'm stuggling to come up with the 5th thing as much as Billy struggling to come up with anything in this 25 minute video, so please gimme a break.
The 5th thing is that he is a very serious man for some reason. He rarely, if ever, likes to engage in comedy. Jokes? Doesn’t like them.
I think he is trying to keep kayfabe. His shoot interviews are more colorful.
@@savagecatgt I’m sure he is. I’m just making fun at him here.
"... felt the wrath of my tackle; felt my spear; and if he was here today - id do it again ..."
excuse me, Mr Goldberg, but i thought this was a family show lol
Goldberg's energy is off the charts! What charisma, what poetry. Hits the bricks Ric Flair, we won't require your services anymore!
Has more charisma then a coked up wrestler in the 80s
😂😂 Goldberg did the bare minimum for this VHS release. Bless his heart
Every idea you come up with is awesome!! This is a good series too!!
Konnan was such a great talker. Glad we still get to hear him today on k100.
Hell Yeah! Dude was and still is a great promo.. I have always liked Konnan as a wrestler.. Dude is cool..
Can you keep doing these? There's at least like 8 more "Superstar Series" videos, and I love an unfiltered Wrestling Bios.
Kudos for staying awake and reviewing this for us 😂
"You can actually see him reaching into the darkest corner of his mind to think about something, anything to say-" 😂😂
Hell yea. Loved the hogan one. Keep these coming.
I agree 100%!!!
Before I even watch this I know our boy done had a field day with this one😂💯
The five things I learned about Goldberg are.
He actually knew he wrestled someone on thunder.
He likes Perry Saturn
Didn't know he was such a talkative individual.
He can tell you all about bumps on the road.
Goldberg thinks wrestling is basically just football with different moves.
I was in high school when Goldberg came out and he was a phenomenon in wrestling and the media at the time. He was huge!!
My older brother, who had gotten a car, had stopped caring about wrestling. When Goldberg came on, he sat down and watched.
@@gongboy83 my brother and dad caught me watching a Goldberg match and wondered who this beast is and from then on I had to call them to say when his match was on so they could see him and the best one was when we were watching his match against the Giant we all wondered could he Jack hammer him
Easily my fav wrestling channel on TH-cam keep up the good work
I’ve had this tape since I was at least 7-8 and I loved it for some reason😂 As a kid this tape made Goldberg look so cool and he quickly became one of my favorites that I never got to see wrestle growing up as I was born in 2001.
Love your videos man, keep up the hard work and thank you sincerely for even going out of your way to create this channel and make great content. Also thank you for giving me something to look forward to on Thursdays😂 hope nothing but the best for you, and PLEASE, TAKE CARE❤️
This VHS was awesome I will not accept any slander on this
@@Aquilrose44 it was, but like wrestlingbios said, Goldberg could have put a little more out there and made it a bit more interesting😂
@@Nut_Bag He couldn't have done that without destroying his mystique, though. This is how guys who would actually do what he does in the ring would behave. Isn't it? It's kayfabe.
It's so funny that this "Goldberg" video has more captivating interviews from Goldberg's opponents than by Goldberg himself. And oh my god... I loved Gilberg! He was one of my favorites! I always thought that the WWE should have had a whole stable full of parody WCW wrestlers.
These are so much fun to watch! I can’t wait for Sting’s video
I did own this Superstar Series tape and the nWo 4-Life (maybe u could review that in an future date after u recently did the Hogan video), the way he talked during the interview kept it in character & real. I appreciated all the great stuff you posted it and keep going!
Wrestling Bios...I love these dodgy interviews! They are a source of hilarity for me! God bless! Much love from across the pond.
I like how this video used the music from WCW/NWO Revenge, brings back a lot of memories.
I had this VHS tape when I was a kid. I watched it so many times and it's what got me into Goldberg. Great nostalgia.
"In the bed room I'm not romantic, I don't do foreplay, there's no dirty talk or passion. I just get In then get out"
I'm so happy you have decided to do these videos, I had no idea these existed.
Keep it up
"well this is a problem, William" 😂 the way you said that, in that tone, just awesome
Bill makes Patrick Star sound like a sophisticated philosopher.
I watched this home video a lot when I was younger due to being a Goldberg super mark, so this brings me a weird sense of nostalgia.
Goldberg looked like he was about to fall asleep as soon as the video started.
I’m gonna look forward to these for quite awhile. Your commentary on top is the icing on the cake.
My god, this tape is the undiscovered cure for insomnia. No wonder he didn’t cut promo’s.
I hope the person who kidnapped and forced Bill Goldberg to do this video was eventually brought to justice. Bill blink three times if you need help.
Another awesome upload from the wrestling channel with the most jam on the planet!
I was a huge Goldberg mark back in the day. Thanks for this video, much appreciated as always!
Thanks for watching that so we didn't have to. A true hero.
These are gold, Jerry! Gold! No pun... The nerve of this jabroni calling out Disco. I learned that Goldberg is a mark for his own self. Hopefully we get an in depth interview with The Bratwurst himself, Alex Wright. I feel we could learn a lot from him, and how much of a pain it was to carry Goldberg his entire match.
A pain in the bratwurst?
I'm ready to see you do the Sting one. That's the tape that got me into pro wrestling as a kid. I wore that tape out.
They conveniently left out the Steven Regal match.
If WCW make "Vincent" Home Video! I bet they would still active to this day 😆
Honorable mention : Juventud on "Juicy" mode, The Gambler Home Video.
We need the booty man dvd
@@Thedudeman8282 Haha, I agree (But as "The Disciple" w/shades he looks very cool)
These home videos gave me so much nostalgia! So happy you're covering these.
billy, you ignored my challenges during "the streak" 'cause you knew i'd end it, homeboy!! - JCVD
Lol man this was tough to watch. But your commentary is awesome as always!
Yo brother waiting on another episode of making the superstar those are hella dope the WHOLE CHANNEL IS HELLA DOPE!!!
N o comment at 19:30 is powerful WB lol you let it speak for itself
That Raw and Goldberg theme mashup at the end was NICE 🔥🔥🔥🔥
They're is a reason why jericho called him green berg
The theme remix at the end of the video is the best part of this video.
1) how Billy Boy is used as an insomnia cure
2) How Billy Boy is to send crying baby’s to sleep
3) How this VHS tape is now used as a torture technique in interrogations of terrorists
4)How much Gilberg had more charisma than Goldberg
5)Why he wasn’t allowed to do much mic work in the ring
This video was way more entertaining than it should be credit to wrestling bios for making it a fun watch
Loving these VHS recaps you’ve been doing. This one specifically was one I found at a goodwill in 06 when I was just getting into wrestling and it was the one that introduced me to Goldberg and WCW as a whole.
This was physically painful and I'm not exaggerating. My anxiety kicked in during that shoot.
I was always under the impression that Dean Malenko created the Jackhammer.
But then I also want it to be true when Terry Funk claimed to invent the Texas Cloverleaf.
11:19 Felt the wrath of his tackle? Just be glad you haven't felt the wrath of Alex Wright's tackle, buddy.
I love that the interview itself was so bland that they jam packed it with promos from other wrestlers lol. Goldberg really did have huge hype in WCW. I was a huge fan.
Your commentary over the video has me on the floor, and my sides are absolutely sore from laughing. Seriously my dude, awesome video, I loved it so much.😂
"Take it back or I'll end your streak." 🤣🤣🤣
During the wars, I was totally a WWF guy. But I watched a lot of WCW too, and anyone who says Goldberg wasn’t popular is either dreaming or intentionally lying. Goldberg was massively popular. They handled him and the streak very well. Of course, being WcW, they ruined it with the Nash/Taser incident that turned out being his first loss. I always thought that he should have kept the streak alive, and gradually have Bill get more arrogant and unappreciative of the fans. Then he does something egregious (like spearing a face) for personal gain. Then he is a heel, but not a normal heel. He doesn’t use heel tricks or have outside help or use chairs. He just becomes more brutal and dishes out unnecessary pain. Eventually, someone like Sting has to end it. Could have been great.
You should have been on the booking committee in those days.
These videos are brilliant. I have the tapes but have not watched them in years so this is a fun way to look back at them. Probably.... No definitely more fun than watching the actual tapes!
Can we get a TH-cam short of Goldberg saying he "wants to take down another member" because I'm a massive child and it made me giggle.
Man, i fuckin love your commentary bud, this show on this channel is the best wrestling content out there.
“Uhhhhhhh”
-Bill Goldberg
I learned that Goldberg loves him some Perry Saturn. Everyone else was just an obstacle
This is a guy who barely remembers the story lines he was in, while being in them just a few months prior 😂
I love this video. It was my first wrestling home video and what made me a huge Goldberg mark. I don't mind him not really talking and seeming annoyed cause it fits the gimmick and what fans wanted from Goldberg in 98.
Hogans interview was probably the best part of Goldbergs video.
I have this on VHS still.
It's excellent for putting yourself to sleep if you're suffering with insomnia.
I had those old WCW tapes
Left them with family & they lost them
🤦♂️🤬
RIP WCW
Are we sure thats not just AI Goldberg 🤔 cause damn he sounded like a robot 😂
Sneaking in another video mate! Its great.
"I'm a man of few words, few mic skills in general, few moves and few dues paid, but a lot of hospital bills for other workers"
14:53 "Tony Shiovani" hahahaha 😂😂😂😂😂😂 WOW!!!!
You would think that WCW or the tv producers in the production studio would have known how to spell his name right LOL
As an American, I want to extend a personal thank you to those of you across the pond for gifting us with the word "Dodgy"
Its so useful and fun to say!
Can't wait to see the Alex Wright video recap.
That raven promo was sick “ you will feel the even flow “ mad sick
I learned that Goldberg can’t conduct an interview (wait, knew that), that Goldberg was not sure who he was fighting next (no, knew that too), that Goldberg didn’t need a “The WCW” counter, that Bobby Heenan should have become Goldberg’s mouthpiece (and been a major non-nWo heel), and uh, he has the charisma of a bump in the road.
I remember renting this video as I was a huge Goldberg fan back then and I watch almost everyday. Looking back now I didn't really realize how shitty it was lol but I still have good memories renting this tape.
They were all kinda dodgy, tbh.
I like this style because I can't wait to see the choice for dodgy videos you might make for people like Mick Foley, the Miz or even... * WOOOOO!*
WCW home videos were Nowhere near on the level of WWF home videos back in the day
WCW should released home video about Disco Inferno and Alex Wright dance instruction / lesson to compete with WWF home videos😆
@kidwaryodproduction they should of hired you to give them interesting ideas lol
@@fredos4323 Hahaha, How about Vince Russo home videos 😄😄
With reaction by Jim Cornette.
@@kidwaryodproduction wish we could go back in time lol
@@fredos4323 Funny that when I reply you about Disco Inferno/ Alex Wright. Disco segment on Goldberg suddenly appears 😆
Wild Gifted Glenn Gilberti Appears 😆
I love your commentary and jokes. Keep it up xD
Whoever was the on set producer during this shoot knowingly was trying to bury him. How could they let him respond like this and think it was AOK. 😂
Bill Goldberg may have missed his calling as an ASMRtist
Man I absolutely love all your videos!
I actually liked this home video. He stayed on character the whole time.
Watching this TH-cam video was a new experience for me. I saw Bill Goldberg's face on the thumbnail and saw that Wrestling Bios was the creator, so I did what I always do: I took care of business. I liked and subscribed and then I watched another. I don't remember watching this video but I'm proud that I did. The intensity is what got me through this video. It's the same intensity that I carry with me into every video I watch.
it's the same process for every video you watch. you watch videos, you don't go out for drinks.
I still have this on vhs, it was a double feature with a sting episode
Please do all the series. I watched all of them during these times.
Seriously love these man keep up the great work! Your hard work and dedication shines through the product brother 💯🤘🔥
Cool video hope more videos like this come out soon
