Feelings on a Possible Hall of Fame Induction:
"To get any type of accolade like that when you're in a given sport or profession is the ultimate honor. But again, like I said about me stepping back in the ring, it's not something that I long for every morning. Would I deem my wrestling career a failure if I didn't join it? No. It would be a hell of an honor for sure. There are people there that deserve it and there are people there that don't deserve it and I'm not anyone to say that I deserve it by any stretch of the imagination. It would be an honor for sure because there are a lot of legends there and it is a sport that put my name at the forefront and I owe it a lot of credit for me being able to talk to you right now and have my own podcast and be a television actor. Yes it would be an honor but I wouldn't feel incomplete if it didn't happen at the end of the day."
One more match:
"First and foremost, let me back you up for a second here. It's funny anytime that I mention anything about wrestling, even my words can be taken out of context. There have been a number of different publications that have run the story that 'Goldberg's back and begging to have a match again' and he wants to get back in the ring, at the end of the day, I would definitely listen to that type of conversation but it's not something I wake up every morning and I pray to God to and hope that I can lace up my boots one more time because I have to end on a nostalgic note. If the opportunity arose and it was a favorable condition for everybody involved, and I mean working condition, not necessarily the money, and opponent, I would definitely cater the thought.
"As to specific people that I would like to face, man I've been forthright and upfront that I'm not on top of the wrestling business like the normal fan would be since my departure, it hasn't been the number one thing in my life, so to just throw a couple of names off the top of my head would be the only way that I could do it. I couldn't give an educated guess as to what the good storyline would be in this day and age as far as television storylines are concerned. Like I said, I'd consider it, for sure, but it's not something I'm longing for.
"J.R is a very good friend of mine and I can talk straight with him and that's what these podcasts do. They catch intimate conversations and now that I have my own I can point the mic at someone else and let them spew so they can get themselves in trouble more than I can. I enjoyed the wrestling business, there were a lot of things that I didn't like about it, but there were things that I did like about it so I would consider something like that.
"As far as schedule is concerned, who knows. I'm in pretty decent shape, I don't know what to compare it to, but for a 47 year old guy walking around and he goes to a Muy-Thai Gym a number of days a week, I'd say I'm pretty much ahead of the game. For the schedule, I don't know. I don't talk to Brock enough to compare what I would think would be acceptable for myself. It's a topic that interests me but it's not a topic I think about daily."
