When WCW was on fire and Goldberg was the hot, new star, he was set to face William Regal in a match. A match that went really, abysmally, terribly wrong because of Bill Goldberg!
Goldberg claims that during his match with William Regal, the latter resented him for his success, and stiffed him with a few legitimate shots to make him look weak (the rest of the locker room resented him too, for getting a monster push without legitimate wrestling skills).

Regal, on the other hand, claims that he had to do what he did because Goldberg had never wrestled a match longer than 90 seconds. This was during Goldberg’s 173-0 streak, where his lack of wrestling skills was hidden by short squash matches.
Regal was told to give Goldberg a competitive match, and so he did. Unfortunately, Goldberg still holds a grudge against Regal to this day!
