According to the big galoot himself, Bill Goldberg is in negotiations to return to the WWE, a company he said that he'd never work for again after leaving, proving that no bridge in wrestling ever stays burnt if the money's right. This isn't necessarily a deal for him to come back and wrestle (thank Christ... although to be fair, I'd rather see him spear guys like crazy than Edge). Read this blurb from the Observer's pay site that friend of the blog and past guest contributor Todd Yates posted over at A1:WWE contacted Goldberg some time back with an offer for an affiliation, not as a wrestler but for merchandising and a legends type of contract, perhaps using his likeness as a character in the video games, but at a completely different level than the normal legends deal.So... yeah, still vague.
My disdain for everything Goldberg does in the ring outside of the SPEAR/JACKHAMMER combo aside, it could be a good deal if Goldberg comes in limited. For example, there's history between Goldberg and Bret Hart, who's sticking around after WM. Goldie's also got history with Steve Austin and Triple H. Hell, there's even dream match potential between the Hebrew Hammer and John Cena, and if anyone in the WWE can drag a good match out of Goldberg, it's Cena.
So don't be surprised if you see Goldberg's shiny bald head on WWE TV in the near future. Keep your groaning to a minimum too, or else they'll hear you in Stamford and probably team him with Hornswoggle just to spite you.
