Vince McMahon changes opinion on Goldberg

Goldberg is the WWE Universal Champion right now, a fact that is still not digestible for a lot of WWE fans. The fact that he defeated The Fiend Bray Wyatt for the title made things worse.

However, despite what fans think of the current champion, Vince McMahon seems to be high on Goldberg right now. Tom Colohue confirmed this on the latest episode of Sportskeeda's Dropkick DiSKussions podcast and claimed that the WWE Chairman never really wanted him back at first.

Firstly I think it's interesting what you say about Goldberg being the big star in Vince's eyes. Vince McMahon originally never wanted to sign Goldberg for anything. He had to be convinced to bring him in from the days after WCW. He had to be convinced to bring him back. Goldberg is not one that Vince ever really felt an affinity to.

Goldberg is now set to face Roman Reigns at WrestleMania and he will be putting the title on the line against the Big Dog.
