In the latest episode of his notable podcast “83 Weeks”, Eric Bischoff opened up about the implication of WrestleMania 41 being the last match of Goldberg. The professional wrestler has dropped hints about his aspirations to take on the WWE World Heavyweight Champion known as GUNTHER.
Let’s delve into some notable chunks from the podcast:
Bischoff, on the likelihood of Goldberg’s retirement match taking place on WrestleMania 41, enthusiastically stated, “I hope we do. I hope Bill gets that opportunity.” He credited Triple H and the operational team for the potential of the match turning out pleasantly appealing. “It sounds exciting,” Bischoff said, further speculating on Goldberg’s previous overstated statements in interviews. “Maybe he’s kind of forcing the issue and planting seeds, like with a jackhammer planting seeds,” he continued. Bischoff hinted at Goldberg and Gunther’s much-publicized feud, saying, “That was a little too well executed to not be something that at least had been in discussion. So I expect to see it.”
Bischoff also commented on the anticipated return of WWE to Toronto for Elimination Chamber 2025, predicting that “The event’s going to be off the charts.” He commended the fervor of the crowds in Toronto and Montreal, stating that their excitement would invariably enhance the ring performances. “When it comes to the people who are watching at home, who can’t be there, it adds a factor of about 50% or 80% to your enjoyment,” he pointed out. He seemed particularly excited about the event, stating, “So it’ll be fun.”
