Arenas echoed with the sound of Goldberg’s name as he dominated and annihilated his competition in WCW. Goldberg held an impressive 173-0 undefeated streak, and that is the focal point of his upcoming WWE Untold documentary.

Goldberg comments on Sting

Goldberg shared his thoughts on several topics in a recent interview with Bleacher Report. He also spoke about WCW’s influence on the wrestling business even today and how ‘The Franchise of WCW’ played a vital role in it.

He said, “Sting is WCW. Period, end of story. People want to say it was me for a period of time, but he just handed the reins to me for a little bit. Sting is that promotion. That promotion is Sting.” 

Not just that, but ‘The Iconic’ one also credited Sting for being a crucial aspect of him being a pro wrestler.

“Everything I learned, I learned from him. He was an integral part of my process of becoming a professional wrestler. I wouldn’t have done it without him.”

Goldberg and Sting were without a doubt two of WCW’s strongest assets. Although Goldberg came in the final years of the company, ‘The Icon’ was a mainstay and top guy for a long time.

Stinger’s surfer character and crow character, both got over pretty easily with the crowd. He battled and feuded against the likes of The Four Horsemen and the New World Order (nWo).

Both Goldberg and Sting initially did not sign with the WWE when the company bought WCW. Goldberg made his WWE debut in 2003, losing at the hands of Triple H. Sting made his debut in 2015 losing at the hands of none other than Triple H!
