Regal has forgotten more than Goldberg knows! Regal has been wrestling since he was around 13 years old and started at the bottom and worked his way to the top paying his dues along the way.

Regal looked him in the eye and said: " well, the only two hits you had were both Slade songs. SLADE wrote them, so I have to think it was THEM that they made YOU money!" Dubrow got all pissed off "you don't have to be like that" to which Regal replied: with a Stranglehold and started choking out the singer for Quiet Riot right there in the radio Studio.

He would have been up there with Flair had he been featured in the previous generation.

Too bad he was featured in an era where you have to look like Goldberg or talk like The Rock to be top game

Yep. Goldberg was just not a technical wrestler. Isolated power moves in a quick squash match - not a problem unless you can be safe and effective while selling moves - which he didn’t do at all. He literally ended Bretts career with a hard kick to the face. BUT of all the wrestlers who faced him Regal at least got an OK match out of Goldberg.

[@Randall-dg6wn]

Well, to keep it factual, Regal was mistaken when he said that Quiet Riot's only two hits were Slade songs. They did have two hits, but their second biggest hit, "Bang Your Head (Metal Health)", a top-40 hit that barely missed the top-30 when it reached #31, was an original song by the band. I'm sure Regal is talking about Quiet Riot's 2nd Slade cover, "Mama Weer All Crazee Now". But that was not much of a hit, as it only reached #50.

[@RobwLPOC]

@@Randall-dg6wn true, Bang Your Head was not a Slade song. His point was still a good one, Slade made Quiet Riot a lot more money than Quiet Riot made Slade

His favorite wrestling story to tell people how he got to meet Harlem Heat as a kid at a WCW show in the early 90's. He said Booker T and Stevie Ray were amazingly nice to him. Took the time to talk to him and took a picture with him. My mom still has that picture in a frame in her office.

I watched that match when it happened on TV and I watched over and over again on KZbin. What I saw was Regal teaching a young buck the facts of the business. He in no way "exposed" Goldberg. He eventually put Goldberg over in that match. If anything William Regal taught Goldberg how to wrestle a little bit better. I watched a podcast with Goldberg as he thanked William Regal for the lesson. In my opinion it made Goldberg's win even more legit.

[@marty704]

Apparently backstage wanted Regal to give Goldberg his first "legitimate" test in the ring and both men were on board. Then right before the match began, unbeknownst to Regal, some higher-up told Goldberg "you better squash this guy or you'll lose your credibility". Classic WCW miscommunication led to an awkward match that ultimately did expose Goldberg and whether or not Regal was fired for that or for his drug issues is up for debate.

[@revans100591]

He was fired for embarrassing Goldberg on TV him being on drugs was the excuse they used to justify it. Regal admitted that in a shoot interview that and the fact that hours before the match happened they did a run thru of what was going to happen and when it came time to do it Goldberg went completely off script no selling his moves so Regal said to hell with it and embarrassed him in the ring. To answer who told Goldberg to squash him it was either the head booker (can't remember who was the booker at the time) or Bischoff my guess Bischoff since he was high on Goldberg squashing everybody during that point of his streak.

[@KeqingMain8]

Regal says he was told by someone in WCW management to do it; though he won't say who that person is.

[@Daisy-yq1gi]

Regal comes from a serious wrestling background, far tougher than Americans are used to. He was trained by people with more moves than are typical in US wrestling. That was British wrestling in the 70s and 80s; genuinely technical. Think Dynamite Kid and Rollerball Mark Rocco. Plus Regal is tough anyway....

Nonsense. Goldberg was becoming the typical squash-monster. I get that monsters generate hype, but there's only so much of "Big monster smashes puny mortal" before it gets stale, then when matches like Berg v Brock came along, it was an utter disaster. The Regal/Berg match in question may have played up on Bergs weaknesses, but it still made him look good. He actually squashed someone who put up a fight for a change, and Regal got to maintain a little dignity despite knowing it was typical 'jobbing'. From Regal's PoV, he was TOLD to 'wrestle' him - and then told off by the exact same people afterwards.

Regal is a tough SOB

[@tammyforbes2101]

Regal says himself that he didn’t get fired for months. He said he was a mess and on drugs and although the Goldberg thing was probably a part of it but not the sole reason.

[@GetLostGames1]

Harlem Heat in my opinion is the greatest tag team of all time. They were Big, Scary, awesome entrance music, full of passion and excitement, and most of all; they had the skills to pay the bills and knew how to tear the house down. The total package!

Regal didn’t embarrass Goldberg, Goldberg embarrassed Goldberg

[@KombatRealm]

I think the story is bigger then the match actually was. As I seen it live, and I've rewatched it a few times since then. The match wasn't bad and it didn't make Goldberg look bad either. He was a hot rookie who hadn't lost and regal was legit. Goldberg heald his own against him and in the end he obviously learned from it. And both came off looking good.

[@AntLox]

no, cause on the documentary, Regal and Benshoff said Regal/ himself was sent out there to see if Goldberg can carry a longer match, but said it was terrible because Goldberg didn't even know Tech basics. He got pushed too soon from development

[@erictoniaschwab1009]

I never understood the big deal about this match. Steve Regal was Goldberg’s toughest opponent at that point. It was a competitive wrestling match and that’s the way it should have been with a tough opponent like Steve Regal.

[@KillerManzarek]

You are absolutly right!! Even Regal himself said it kzbin.info/www/bejne/lWW3hWyofKaYa8k

[@maxdecphoenix]

that's the point man. that's what *should have happened* and that's what *did happen*, yet Eric went berserk that the match took that long and made Goldberg look weak. And magically, Regal was fired shortly there after. Regal's side of the story is he was told by the agent to have a 'competitve' match. Goldberg, who hadn't had a match longer than 45 seconds at that point, claims that Regal intentionally made him look weak and dragged out the match to 5minutes exactly.

[@RobwLPOC]

It was not William Regal's idea to go 6 minutes with Bill Goldberg who only knew enough moves to carry about a 90 second match.

[@JamesCard-u1s]

I have always put Regal in my top 3. Since I started watching in like 95 at the age of three. Everyone my age hated him when I got a little older too, but I always found his matches fascinating. He is the truest professional wrestler in every sense, and it translates into his work. When he break the rules, it’s amazing, but when he makes another turn and does something face-like, it’s even better.

[@Webbula]

Now if you'd put Goldberg and Stevie Ray together they would've been evenly matched.

[@GrassValleyGreg]

Regal had his "issues"- so I can see him being on his last strike with WCW. But he's a legit badass- and certainly could make someone look like a fool in the ring if he wanted to.

[@Ultradude604]

IMO regal still manage to make Goldberg look good. he took him to a level he never been before.

Yep. And more than 3 minutes match. haha

[@ashscott6068]

I dunno if you'd call it "embarrassing" Goldberg. Goldberg still sold all Regals moves, and it was one of the most interesting matches Goldberg was ever in. If you don't sell that "technical" stuff, then nothing happens. None of those locks or takedowns actually work without cooperation. He coulda pulled a no-sell any time he wanted, since that was part of his character anyways. He was maybe a bit naive to let Regal have as much heat in the match as he had, but part of Goldberg's whole storyline was that he didn't necessarily have a lot of technical ability when it came to holds and locks. The character woulda been boring as Hell if people had sold submissions and holds for him too.

[@Vulcan5911]

I watched that match many times and saw a competitive match. I didn't see Regal embarrass Goldberg. I saw a good match between a awesome legend in William Regal and a awesome newcomer Bill Goldberg. I thought it was a great match. No Goldberg didn't come out and destroy Regal in 30 seconds and I didn't expect that to happen. I thoroughly enjoyed the match. It taught Goldberg a lot in the wrestling ring and I loved it.

[@robertmoore-zm1qd]

Also tell them this every time regal threw punches at goldberg, goldberg shok it off.... every time regal had him in a tangle hold goldberg had a counter...REGAL PLAN WAS TO TANGLE UP GOLDBERG AND HAVE HIM OFF RHYTHM he's use to win when he squash a opponent ... question did you see regal pick up goldberg and throw him around ? NO did you see goldberg throw him around before he hit him with a spear ? YES. .... u see regal surprised goldberg by hitting him but not damaging him cause goldberg shook it off and he tangled his arms..... but goldberg said ok this is different... imma flow along with it ,EVERY MOVE REGAL DID GOLDBERG COUNTERED... THEN HIT EM WITH THE SPEAR...THE END 😂😂😂❤

[@alienlife7754]

Regal is a legit legend. If he’s not in the WWE Hall Of Fame he damn well should be. But he also broke the golden rule. He broke kayfab. He was the veteran in that ring. He damn well knew better. His pride got in the way of his commitment to putting on a good show. He was tasked with putting over Goldberg. It wasn't his place to decide to embarrass the golden boy just because he got pissy about it. I would have fired him too. As I said, the man is a legend but he fucked up bad. He deservd to be fired.

[@network735]

This guy is awesome for his honesty.

[@danlevan6138]

Coincidentally, Goldberg's face on the thumbnail is the same face he makes after eating two pounds of pastrami and visiting the bathroom.

[@EvaluateAssimilate]

Regal exposed a lot of wrestlers. He had great skill compared to others. The others were just for their physique and the odd occasion whereby they'd exhibit great strength. Promoters wanted action men, not a brit who could dance around the rest of them.
