Goldberg’s match with Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 20 is one of the most infamous matches from the event, as the fans showed no love for either Superstar.
Fans knew that both Goldberg and Lesnar were leaving the company after the match and they made sure to make both men aware of their disdain.
Goldberg spoke to Inside The Ropes about the decision making behind the match, and he admitted that Vince McMahon wanted to kill him and Brock.
“Here’s the thing though. If you are presented with that scenario and you are Vince McMahon, what the hell do you do? Who do you let win, who do you hate less?”
“I just wonder how he came to that decision. I really do because he wanted to kill me. I know he wanted to kill Brock. So, I guess he wanted to kill Brock more and that is why I won.”
In the end everything worked out for Goldberg and Lesnar, as they have both since returned to the company. Goldberg is the current Universal Champion and Brock Lesnar is the current WWE Champion, so clearly Vince got over it.
