Goldberg made a name for himself during the Monday Night Wars and WWE found an answer for Goldberg’s massive success when they started featuring a parody character named Gillberg.
Duane Gill portrayed Goldberg a number of times on WWE programming, and during an appearance on the Cheap Heat Productions podcast the former WWE Light Heavyweight Champion talked about some of the ideas that he’s come up with in regard to him and Goldberg possibly working together.
“A Gillberg-Goldberg wrestling figure pack, how much money would that have made? He could have said, ‘Hey, I brought the toughest guy (…) as my tag team partner,’ and bring me out and just have me for a match or two as his tag team partner. ‘My little buddy, my little buddy.'”
According to Duane Gill, he spoke to Goldberg face to face about the idea of them going toe to toe inside the squared circle, but Goldberg is simply not interested.
“I’ve asked him right to his face. I said, ‘Bill, please, let’s have this match.’ I said, ‘I’ll make a hundred grand, you’ll make a million, and I’ll be able to retire.’ ‘No… no…'”
Gillberg also noted that he mentioned the potential Goldberg match to Stephanie McMahon and Triple H, but at this point in time it doesn’t look like it’s going to happen.
