At the peak of the Attitude Era, Goldberg was one of the biggest Superstars in the industry. After WCW folded, Goldberg was one of the top stars who decided against making his way to WWE. It all changed two years later when Goldberg was signed to a WWE contract. He faced Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 20, following which both wrestlers left the company.

Upon Goldberg's 2016 return, he faced Lesnar again at WrestleMania 33 in a losing effort. During Goldberg's first stint in WWE, he won the World title and had a dominant run on the RAW roster. In his second run with the company, he dominated Brock Lesnar as no one had in years, including a squash at Survivor Series 2016.
Yet, Goldberg never got a chance to headline The Show of Shows. A major reason why we never got to see him in this position was the fact that he spent the prime of his career in WCW, and has only competed in 2 WrestleMania events.

He completed his MBA from the Symbiosis Institute of Telecom Management in 2016 and worked with multiple banking institutions, including Tech Mahindra. While he started writing WWE articles for Sportskeeda in 2019 as a hobby, it eventually became a significant part of his professional journey.
Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.
He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
