Bill Goldberg, who had a brief but ultimately underwhelming run in WWE after WCW was acquired by Vince McMahon, has been away from the company since 2004. Because it’s wrestling, There have been ever-persistent rumors that he would come back, but none of them have ever materialized.
Just now on Raw, WWE ran a commercial announcing that Goldberg will be in the 2017 edition of their video game.
By the way, this is the ‘hatch‘ angle WWE has been plugging on social media all weekend.
This was similar to how Sting made his WWE debut on Raw in 2014. Even though Goldberg will be 50 by the end of the year, his presence on WWE programming would put fannies in the seats. Wonder if it’s going to happen.
