WWE Hall of Famer Goldberg’s backstage altercations with Riddle is no secret. Recently, the former talked about the popular RAW Superstar and praised him for putting in a lot of hard work. Although he sometimes feels that Riddle can be a “pr*ick,” he appreciates The Original Bro’s passion for business and his work ethic.

"The guy has put in a lot of fr*ckin hard work and a lot of hard work, and he's dedicated his life to this business," said Goldberg. "Whether I like him as a human being or not, I have to understand and appreciate his passion for the business and his work ethic. Because he works hard and that I appreciate as an athlete and as a human. Is he a pr*ck sometimes? Absolutely. But that's him. That's his character, and so am I."
