Gage Goldberg On His Father’s Future

In an interview with Bill Apter for Sportskeeda, Gage was asked what would happen if his father won the title. He said that regardless of the outcome, the match itself could inspire his father to continue competing.

“Win or lose, he’s going to be, he’s going to get the feel, he’s going to get the itch again that he wants to stay in the ring,” Gage stated.

Gage, a 19-year-old football player, also shared the advice he gave his father. He told him to prepare as hard as he can and get ready to “kick some ass.”

Gage To Play A Role In The Match

During the interview, Gage confirmed he will be present for his father’s match. He is also expected to have a significant role in the event.

As previously reported, Goldberg has revealed that Gage will be leading him to the ring for the bout. This will add another layer to what is being billed as Goldberg’s final match.

Goldberg’s career is defined by explosive intensity and one of the most dominant runs in wrestling history. He rocketed to superstardom in WCW with his legendary 173-0 undefeated streak, a feat that captivated mainstream audiences. During this period, he became a double champion, holding both the WCW United States Heavyweight Championship and the WCW World Heavyweight Championship, establishing himself as the face of the promotion.

After WCW closed, Goldberg had his first run in WWE from 2003 to 2004, where he continued his main event status and captured the World Heavyweight Championship from Triple H.

He made a shocking return in 2016, proving his drawing power once again. In this second phase of his career, he became a two-time WWE Universal Champion, defeating both Kevin Owens and “The Fiend” Bray Wyatt for the title.

These reigns cemented his legacy as a special attraction capable of winning a world title at any time. In recognition of his monumental impact on the industry, Goldberg was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame as the headliner of the Class of 2018, solidifying his status as an icon of wrestling’s modern era.
