Goldberg Supports Son Gage’s Potential Wrestling Career

WWE Hall of Famer Goldberg has opened up about the possibility of his son, Gage Goldberg, stepping into the wrestling ring. During a recent interview on “The Ariel Helwani Show,” Goldberg expressed his unwavering support for Gage’s potential career in professional wrestling, provided his son approaches it with full commitment and determination.

Gage, currently a linebacker for the University of Colorado Buffaloes football team, has already made appearances on WWE programming. Notably, he was involved in Goldberg’s feud with Bobby Lashley, where he was memorably put in the Hurt Lock. Despite his focus on football, Gage has hinted at wrestling as a backup plan, revealing that WWE Chief Content Officer Triple H has extended an open invitation for him to join the company if he decides to pursue it.

Goldberg emphasized the importance of hard work and dedication, stating, “If he looked me in the eye and had the conviction in his soul that this is what he was going to put 120% of his attitude and life towards, to be the best, I know he can do it. He can do anything he wants.” He also highlighted the challenges of earning respect in the industry, adding, “You gotta work for it. I’d support him in anything he does, short of being a crack dealer or something. If the kid loves it, then he can do it. I’m completely behind it.”

The wrestling legend’s comments have sparked discussions among fans about the potential for Gage to follow in his father’s footsteps. While some are excited about the prospect of a second-generation Goldberg in WWE, others question whether Gage’s passion for wrestling matches his father’s legendary career.
