Welcome to The Patron Saints of Sick Sons of Bitches. In our first episode, we dig into the early, most famous, and arguably best stretch of Goldberg’s career: The Streak. What was WCW like before his arrival? What did the debut of AoL 4.0 have to do with his rise? How much of Goldberg’s perceived greatness is a matter of his being booked to dominate, and how much of it was actual ability? These questions and more are on the table in part one of a two part exploration of one of the more unique, controversial careers of the past 30 years.
Matches Discussed:
- Goldberg vs. Steve “Mongo” McMichael (WCW 12/27/97)
- Goldberg vs. Lord Steven Regal (WCW 2/8/98)
- Goldberg vs. Raven (WCW 4/20/98)
- Goldberg vs. Scott Hall (WCW 7/6/98)
- Goldberg vs. Hollywood Hulk Hogan (7/6/98)
