Goldberg kicked his ass

I was never a massive Bill Goldberg fan - he definetly had something as the fans loved him but the guy just did'nt know how to work a match. if he went anything longer than a 2 minute squash he was buggered. I thinks thats why his match suffered at Wrestlemania 20 against Brock Lesnar despite the fact both wrestlers had already handed in their notice and both knew they were going to be leaving the company after the match anyway
