Former WCW mega-star Bill Goldberg recently spoke with Sportstown Chicago to promote his new film, “Checkpoint.” During the interview, Goldberg spoke about his match against Diamond Dallas Page at WCW’s Halloween Havoc 1998 pay-per-view and how DDP had a lot to do with the success he had in his pro wrestling career. Below are some of the highlights from the interview.
On if he agrees that his match with DDP at Halloween Havoc 1998 was one of the best of his career:
“Absolutely. And I agree to that because of who my dance partner was. And it was Dallas Page.”
On DDP having a lot to do with the success of his wrestling career:
“Dallas had a lot to do with the success of my career. When he approached me with a 14-page wrestling match, I was a bit indifferent. You just got to wrangle Dallas a little bit. He’s very enthusiastic, he’s got a very creative mind.”
On why the DDP match at Halloween Havoc 1998 was so special:
“I obviously never replicated a match like that because I never had a main event like that with Dallas again and that should show you and tell you who was responsible for that match. Obviously it takes two to tango but I was absolutely honored to take part in a monumental match with Dallas. It was awesome, it really was. There’s no doubt it was the best match of my career.”
