Gage Goldberg Comments On Bret Hart’s Long Grudge Against His Father

Gage Goldberg believes Bret Hart needs to let things go.

We recently passed the 25th anniversary of Hart’s infamous Starrcade 1999 match with Bill Goldberg on December 19. Even after all these years, The Hitman continues to resent the heavyweight star for the ‘career-ending’ kick he received in the bout.

The son of the former Universal Champion was asked about Bret’s continued animosity towards his dad in a new interview with Wrestle Binge. Gage said that things happen in life but you have to learn to let them go:

“I mean, we don’t really like to talk about that a lot. You gotta let things go, 100%. You can’t just keep harping on this one thing when someone is successful. Stuff happens,”

Best One I’ve Seen: Gage Goldberg

Gage Goldberg was also asked about his favorite match of his father. The 18-year-old picked his Survivor Series 2016 encounter with Brock Lesnar where the WCW veteran defeated the Beast Incarnate in 1 minute 25 seconds:

“I’d say in person, his best match was against Brock Lesnar at Survivor Series. That one was the most exhilarating. It was the best one I’ve seen. It was just [amazing].

He was killing him with that spear. Just to see him kill Brock Lesnar in that soon of a time. Cause Brock Lesnar is a badass. He’s [one] of the coolest guys in WWE of all time for sure.”

Elsewhere in the interview, the college Football star also discussed the possibility of entering the wrestling business himself. He noted how wrestling would be a cool career but he’s currently focused on Football.

Gage Goldberg Says Triple H Has Offered Him A WWE Tryout

Gage Goldberg, son of wrestling legend Bill Goldberg, could follow in his father’s footsteps thanks to a tryout offered by Paul ‘Triple H’ Levesque. Speaking to Sportskeeda, the younger Goldberg shared nothing but love for WWE’s Chief Content Officer.

“I honestly love Triple H. He’s super nice to my dad, great person, very nice to my mom. I like him, honestly. He’s awesome.”

When asked if Levesque has reached out to him about trying out for WWE, Gage confirmed this is the case. Gage is currently playing for the University of Colorado under coach Deion Sanders.

Gage has yet to compete in WWE, but he’s no stranger to the squared circle. After celebrating his father’s return at Survivor Series 2016, Gage would be attacked by Bobby Lashley at SummerSlam 2021. More recently, Gage was by his father’s side when Bill Goldberg confronted GUNTHER at WWE Bad Blood 2024 in Atlanta.

With Bill Goldberg set to have his final match in 2025, fans could soon be seeing more of Gage ahead of his father’s retirement. Stay tuned to SEScoops for the latest on both Gage and Bill as the Goldberg name remains strong in the world of WWE.

Gage Goldberg On Potential Wrestling Career, Encounter With Gunther

Gage Goldberg wants to see his dad take on Gunther after their bad Blood encounter.

The son of the former WCW Champion recently had an interview with WrestleBinge. He discussed things such as the origin of his name, whether he watches current-day wrestling, and more.

When asked if he has any plans of joining the business himself, the Colorado Buffaloes football star said that it’s more of a backup plan for him:

“I mean yes and no. For sure cuz wrestling would be cool having all the…. being amped up and everything. Having all the adrenaline, but then also like I know my place right now is with football.

So I’m going to live this out and see where that takes me. If it doesn’t work out, could be wrestling. Don’t know. It’s a backup plan.”

Gage was also asked about attending the Bad Blood PPV in Atlanta with his dad and the encounter with Gunther. The 18-year-old said that he kind of wants to see his dad fighting the Ring General now:

“I mean when he first came out, I wasn’t expecting anything. Then he started saying all that. Then I’m like ‘okay.’ I started whispering to my dad, I’m like ‘You might want to get in there and kick his ass’ or something like that.

But he got out there. He showed his presence for sure too. It was just like; I was like why are you calling him out? I don’t really know. I kind of want to see my dad kick his ass now.”

Bill Goldberg has announced that he’ll be having his retirement match in 2025. While an opponent and a date has not been revealed for his final match, it seems very likely that we’ll see him fighting Gunther during the WrestleMania season or at the next Saudi show in May.
