I like how they had jericho talking bout goldberg. Jericho said something about people taking themselves to serious.

i thought nash actually made a good point in the doc. he basically said that if you exist in wrestling solely because you cannot be beat, and you have absolutely no other leg to stand on, and you owe your success mostly to the way you were booked... then basically you need to retire the moment you lose because there really is no way to ever recapture that mystique. if you can't evolve as a character or as a performer then how was goldberg ever really gonna make it back to the top once the streak was done?

but you know what else? if that's the case, then the streak shouldn't have ended that soon. they might have been able to squeeze another YEAR out of goldberg, maybe 2. who knows. when you're that hot why fukk it up. just keep feeding him until it's time for him to lose, and perhaps december of 1998 was not that time.

Kevin's right streaks are made to be broken really , you have to have somthing to stand on and if you can't handle a loss then your useless . Im not sayin job out but you need some kind of character

right he was very one dimensional, and once he lost... once that allure and that mystique was gone... he had no other leg to stand on.

but still, even though he could only really do one thing... he did that one thing almost better than anybody.

Well I don't know I was young so I didn't think like that I liked him still but I mean he was never stone cold /the rock /foley / hhh etc so yes he couldn't rely on personality but it seems like due to his attitude they didn't go out their way to really keep him at the top . It's like ryback kind of once he lost to punk he just kept losing , that one loss shouldn't if finished him cause for a time after he was still positioned as a real credible threat until he got pushed back for the rock . The guy then redeemed himself with the heel stuff only to get cena buried . Ryback can still easily come back beat the hell out of heel miz and be over or beat up heel cesaro or whoever and be over .

They still could've made all kinds of money with Goldberg. Since he was beat off shenanigans they could've still made all kinds of money on having him chase the title again while getting obstacles thrown in his way. The truth is Nash was protecting his spot by cutting Goldberg off at the knees.

And this doc was ridiculous. These whole Monday Night Wars seriously has just fallen off. Anything positive WCW did is looked at as copying WWF, stealing ideas or talent from WWF/ECW, or how WCW completely fukked up whatever good they were doing. This Goldberg one was far too negative and focused way too much on stuff he wasn't able to do. How laughable is it that Nash is talking about how Goldberg shouldn't main event during that time period due to not being able to go 20 minutes when by that time Nash was just completely horrible.

or what about when hogan said he was the one to approach bischoff about losing the title to goldberg.

okay hulk

I bet that Sting episode is gonna be filled with praise and justifications for certain bad decisions

 

[Willy Waffle]

i just got into the monday night war series the last few days. i'm on the stone cold episode and aside from the nwo episode this whole series has been pro wwe .

i take it from the comments in here, this shyt isn't worth watching with all the biasness in the series. we all know it's wwe produced but this shyt is just toooooo one sided.

goldberg weirdly enough, the only time i liked him most was in the late 90s to the 2000's when he was going up against legit tough guys like Sid and Scott Steiner

kanyon vs. Mike Awesome at slamboree is a crazy good match awesome powerbombs kanyon on his neck

 

[AKM-95]

Kevin Sullivan insisted on booking the streak further since he was the one booking the streak and knew how to protect Goldberg but "Creative Control" came in with Nash etc.

Yup Sullivan said in that KC shoot that he wanted Goldberg to be the mike Tyson of wrestling, working limited dates and only wrestling on PPV. I don't know if that would of worked during that time but think in hindsight it would of been better than the combined NWO nonsense.

 

[prophecypro]

Yeah the Goldberg doc obviously had some revisionism and bias to it, but I was honestly surprised they didnt focus too much of the negative. They acknowledged that while the Georgia Dome Nitro episode could have been a PPV, it was in the midst of a ratings war and it drew and they mostly blamed WCW booking (Nash, Hogan, 2 people who are very much in with WWE) for how they handled Golberg's career.
The only contention might have been the Regal comments and match about carrying him, they could showed how he developed moves later on and had longer matches but other than that it was probably less bias than it could have been.
