"More on the Jim Ross OTR interview from yesterday. He said the new presentation of Goldberg would be a guy as an "animal" who fights a lot and talks little. "
Wow, it took them this long to actually think to book him in the same way that he originally got over in WCW?
January 4th 1999 - The day WCW injected itself with 10 gallons of Liquid Anthrax...AKA...The day Hogan "Defeated" Nash to win the WCW title in front of 40,000.
No kidding. Hasn't everyone and their mothers been saying that THIS is how Goldberg SHOULD be booked?
The problem is, though, is it too late?

This will certainly be closer to what we all want, but I suspect they'll miss the boat anyway (unlike Brock).
Goldberg should be someone who kicks ass and says nothing, perhaps with a dark, mysterious side to him. I'm sure Vince will turn him into a Kamala/Warlord/George Steele animal who's about as interesting as dirt.

You're reading it wrong. JR is talking about having Goldberg wrestle like an ANIMAL. They're obviously sponsoring the sequel to the mega-blockbuster hit starring Rob Schneider, and Goldberg's the co-star.
Look for Goldberg's new finisher, the "strangling throat bite", this coming RAW, as he kills and eats Christopher Nowinski.

If only he'd eat Triple H....

Stewie: Ahahaha. Oh God, that's funny. That's really funny. You write your own material? Do you? Because that is so fresh. 'You are the weakest link. Goodbye!' You know I've never heard anyone make that joke before. You're the first. I've never heard anyone reference that outside program before. Because that's what she says on the show, right? Hmmm? 'You are the weakest link. Goodbye!' And ye...ye..yet you've taken it and....and used it out of context to insult me in this everyday situation. What a clever, smart girl you must be. To come up with a joke like that all by yourself. Mmmmm...that's so fresh too. Any Titanic jokes you want to throw at me as long as we're hitting these phenomena at the height of their popularity. Mmmm? Cuz i'm here God you're so funny!

Have you seen his new gimmick the last few months? The more things change...

Originally posted by Hogan's My DadSteve Austin was once the ringmaster, asking fans to touch their tv screens while the camera gets a close-up of his hand so they can touch greatness.
I actually loved that little touch. The "Ringmaster" name was pathetic, but the rest of the character itself wasn't really too bad. He was Ted DiBiase's hand-picked Million Dollar Champion, and a classic arrogant heel. If he'd just been "Steve Austin" with that same gimmick, he may've gone far and wrestling today might be completely different...

That would get me watching for a week.

I guess I'm in the minority of the IWC. That I totally hated Goldberg's booking in WCW. Sure it helped him but at the same time help destroy everyone else in the company... If somebody needs 90% of the roster fed to him to get over, he's not worth it.
cause there's limits to our liberties. 'Least I hope and pray that there are, cause those liberal freaks go too far.
I'll crush all opposition to me And I'll make Ted Kennedy pay If he fights back, I'll say that he's gay
Anyone notice him saying "I'm back" during his post-coital...I mean post-match celebration? I have a sneaking suspicion that he was the one lobbying for this character shift. I still would have gone with the gay cowboy though. Think of the merchandising potential.
If WWE's willing to completely and utterly sacrifice Rodney Mack (who they've tried to get over through hell or high water) for the greater cause of getting Goldberg over, then there may just be some hope yet.

I'm totally with you. I stopped watching WCW when he beat Raven for the US title after Raven had it for a day.
