5 Times WWE Superstars lost their cool backstage

#2 Chris Jericho and Goldberg on WWE RAW

Goldberg and Chris Jericho

Former WWE Superstar Chris Jericho and WWE Hall of Famer Goldberg didn't get along during their time in WCW. Chris Jericho went on to sign with WWE and Goldberg followed soon, ending up on the same brand, RAW, as Jericho.

On an episode of WWE RAW, Goldberg trash-talked about Chris Jericho backstage while Y2J was out working a match. Once Jericho came back, he got to know about that and he marched straight into the dressing room. In his autobiography, Jericho revealed what went down backstage.

"It was Goldfinch’s first Raw, and I worked with HHH vs. Shawn and Booker T. After the match I was pulled aside and informed that Goldsmith had spent the entire match barking to Nash about how I didn't know how to sell properly and how I hadn't wanted to do business with him in WCW."

Jericho further revealed how he took down Goldberg with a front face lock, hoping that he would pass out.

"Once Goldster made his move, I reacted the only way I knew how. I swatted his hand off my throat and gave him a two-handed push to the chest. He rushed forward with his head down and tried to tackle me, like the ex– NFL lineman that he was. I stepped to the side like the world's worst matador and grabbed him in a front facelock. It was the only shoot hold I knew. I think I surprised the shit out of him with my lethal hold and was able to power him down to the ground, applying pressure because I knew if I pushed his throat into his chest long enough, he might pass out. I really hoped that he would go to sleep because I was sure that he was going to fire up and kick the shit out of me. I mean, come on, have you ever seen this guy? He is massive!"

This matter went to the WWE Wrestler's Court where Triple H, the judge at that time, made Goldberg apologize to Chris Jericho and admit in front of the WWE locker room that Jericho was a better wrestler than him.
