5 reasons why Goldberg doesn't deserve the hate he receives

#3 Goldberg continues to put his body on the line for our entertainment

At the age of 54, Goldberg continues to put his body on the line to entertain the WWE Universe, bringing his unique aura with him. That in itself has to be hugely respected, as he could easily call it a day and walk off into the sunset.

Goldberg has always been a tough cookie, and even after a below-par showing against The Undertaker in Saudi Arabia, he built himself up and still wanted to give back. It takes time to get prepared and into shape to compete in a WWE ring, and he dedicates himself to that. Those are sometimes the things that we don't see.

On this day, 7th June 2019, Super Showdown. A match that everyone wanted to see... 30 years ago. The Undertaker takes on Goldberg in a match with series of very dangerous botches. #undertaker #goldberg #wwe #botch #OnThisDay #OnThisDayInWWE pic.twitter.com/oXWN8Iw8ii

He is smart, limiting his time wrestling, to keep his body fresh and not overdoing it by beating his body down at his age. As we've seen in the past, some wrestlers try and wrestle as often as they can no matter what age they are.

Goldberg told The Bump in 2020, in regards to a possible retirement:

"'Hey when are you gonna hang it up?’ The fact is that if I get a phone call and I can still do what I did back in the day and bring it to at least an acceptable level then I’m not gonna say no." said Goldberg (h/t WWE's The Bump)

"I'd love to get in the ring with @WWECesaro. He's one of the most talented guys to ever put on a pair of boots. There's no question about it. He's very underappreciated, but now he's getting some attention that's well-deserved." - @Goldberg#WWETheBump pic.twitter.com/bouSw7E3fQ
