Well least Goldberg takes it as a compliment lol
During a recent interview with Graham GSM Matthews of the Bleacher Report, WWE Hall of Famer Goldberg commented on AEW star Wardlow being compared to him.
According to Goldberg, he’s heard about the comparisons and doesn’t mind them. He said,
“I understand the comparisons. I’ve heard of him for sure. I’ve seen pictures of him. I haven’t seen him work that much. But, hey, man, more power to him. There needs to be more characters like that.
There needs to be serious intensity out there.
There’s people that slice meat and there’s people that eat meat and he needs to be eating meat — now Big E is going to come into it. But yeah, man , I don’t know. I’ve never read anything about a comparison from him and how he passes judgment on it. But at the end of the day, anybody that’s close to the top in their prospective business to be compared with myself. That’s an honor and a privilege.”
did he just insinuate that Big E is intense? Hahahahahahahahahaha
You say that like it's a bad thing. No one wants lame consecutive squash matches in 2022.These comparisons won't last long if they keep booking wardlow to have 15 minute matches, against mid carders at that.
He's got a huge amount of intensity.Goldberg's right that wrestling needs more characters with intensity. Wardlow does not have much intensity. He's just a pretty boy for the most part and brings out intensity for the end of his matches. I think he shows more comedy than intensity on average. When I think of his character now, he sounds kinda awful.
This trash right here is exactly why Wardlow needs to get the fuck away from the cult.You say that like it's a bad thing. No one wants lame consecutive squash matches in 2022.
Jericho was a comedic cruiserweight, but he was over A...aw shit, you're right.Wardlow's match with Cassidy would be if Goldberg had a match with Jericho in WCW lol
Dude squashed 20 randoms and people bitched. Now he has a 10+ minute match with Orange Cassidy (who has kayfabe credibility mind you) and people bitch.This trash right here is exactly why Wardlow needs to get the fuck away from the cult.
That's better than anything I've seen in the last decade.Wardlow would kill to have a moment as awesome as this
Why do you keep saying this? You realise WWE loyalists are exactly the same as the AEW fans you refer to, right?This trash right here is exactly why Wardlow needs to get the fuck away from the cult.
He does not need to squash everybody. He just shouldn’t have 15 minutes matches with a guy who looks like a toothpick compared to him.Dude squashed 20 randoms and people bitched. Now he has a 10+ minute match with Orange Cassidy (who has kayfabe credibility mind you) and people bitch.
I have no issue with him squashing 20 no name guys, but why should he squash everyone? What would that accomplish instead of burying the whole roster and having the E drones refer to him as "Goldberg on Wish.com"?
It amazes me how people on this forum consistently have the worst takes. And that's saying something considering Twitter is a thing.
Wow what an original clever argument! Not like Orange Cassidy hasn't backed it up in the ring or anything.He does not need to squash everybody. He just shouldn’t have 15 minutes matches with a guy who looks like a toothpick compared to him.
None of the wrestlers you named were considered to be AEW’s upcoming megastars which Wardlow is. His size, his talent in the ring is next to none. Even the best of the best fight differently in the ring with guys like Wardlow. We have seen that in history guys like him can be booked better. Why should logic be any different here? OC is a comedy act where as Wardlow is ment to make you feel the intensity with in the ring. Him having 15 minutes with a guy like Miro is more realistic than a guy who hardly looks the size.Wow what an original clever argument! Not like Orange Cassidy hasn't backed it up in the ring or anything.
Dude had the best match at Forbidden Door. And high profile wins against the likes of Jericho and Adam Cole. He's been built up well and great in the ring. God forbid they give him a 10+ minute match on live tv to showcase that talent. You know how stupid some of you wrestling 'fans' look crying about wrestlers under 210lbs constantly? It's cringe.
Not batista, guy could actually talk on the mic unlike wardlowWardlow is Jeff Hardy, Goldberg, Brock Lesnar, Batista and Rey Mysterio all in one. The guy can’t decide what he wants to be. I can see why his name starts with War. He has war within himself.
True. I was trying to add the power bomb connection.Not batista, guy could actually talk on the mic unlike wardlow
Ah man Mike Sanders. I wonder what happened to this guy.Wardlow would kill to have a moment as awesome as this
