Back during the Attitude Era, Goldberg had become a force to be reckoned with. His undefeated streak of 173 matches is still widely regarded as one of the greatest feats in wrestling history. On the March 29th, 1999 episode of Monday Nitro, former WWE Champion Bret Hart confronted Goldberg.
Goldberg didn't waste much time and sprinted towards Hart to deliver a thunderous Spear on him. Strangely, Goldberg remained on the mat after the impact, in an unconscious state. Suddenly, Hart stood up and removed his T-shirt. Underneath the garb, Hart had equipped himself with a metal plate, that was bound to his body.
Goldberg had hit him with a lethal Spear, and the move backfired on the heavyweight with equal force. This move was replicated at WrestleMania 22, when Edge speared Mick Foley, who had hidden a bunch of barbed wires underneath the shirt.

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.
