Stone Cold Steve Austin was the latest guest on Insight with Chris Van Vliet. They discussed a number of topics and one of those topics included why he never faced Goldberg.
Below is what Stone Cold Steve Austin had to say about why we never got a Goldberg vs Stone Cold Steve Austin match:
“I don’t know. I think we pitched it when he first came in, but he wasn’t at the level that he needed to be. He had just come into WWF, and he needed to get going or get over first. He was certainly over from his WCW days. I think a little bit of time had elapsed, but I watched him down there in Atlanta, but we were all on the road at the time, and that was during the Monday Night Wars. If you set your DVR to record back in the day, you kind of knew what was going on. I watched Dallas Page kind of go down a parallel path as me too as far as this timeline of getting over. But yeah, you know, Goldberg just needed to put some time in WWF before we could go, and then it just never happened. Bill is a good friend of mine.”
