Get over it, Goldberg — your gripes about WWE, Asuka are a terrible look

Bill Goldberg’s ongoing frustration with losing his kayfabe wrestling winning streak record has once again made headlines, prompting a response from the WWE that perfectly shut down his complaints.

The WWE Hall of Famer and WCW legend has been vocal about his displeasure at no longer holding the record for the longest winning streak in wrestling history. Despite the fact that his streak was heavily inflated for dramatic effect and he didn’t actually win all those matches, Goldberg seems unable to let go of the fact that Asuka now holds the record.

Asuka, a Japanese wrestler who won over 230 matches in 914 days without being pinned or submitted, broke Goldberg’s streak of 173-0 over 461 days. However, Goldberg has either refused to call her by name or has simply failed to remember it, referring to her as “some Japanese girl” or “some girl” in interviews where he discusses losing his streak.

During a recent appearance on “Real Talk with Mike Burke”, Goldberg suggested that WWE intentionally had someone break his streak as a way to get back at him and WCW for beating them in the ratings during the “Monday Night Wars”. Despite claiming to hold no grudge against Asuka personally, Goldberg’s comments have drawn criticism for their dismissive tone towards the talented wrestler.

The WWE’s response to Goldberg’s remarks has not been subtle. By highlighting the impressive accomplishments of Asuka and acknowledging her rightful place in wrestling history, the organization has effectively put an end to Goldberg’s complaints.

It’s clear that Goldberg’s bitterness over losing his streak has clouded his judgement, leading him to make disrespectful comments about Asuka. As wrestling fans continue to celebrate Asuka’s achievements, Goldberg’s outdated views on the matter serve as a reminder of the importance of recognizing and respecting the talents of all wrestlers, regardless of their gender or nationality.
