Goldberg, the former WCW wrestler, is signed to the WWE as of February 2025 and is expected to retire at the end of the 2025 season. Goldberg came to WWE in 2003 after a highly successful 5-year stint in World Championship Wrestling (1997-2001) and one year in New Japan Pro Wrestling. While Goldberg was one of the biggest names in WCW in the late nineties, Brock Lesnar turned into a similar star for WWE during the early noughties. Both were at WWE in 2003-04, leading to some memorable clashes between the two.
