Goldberg On Match With Brock Lesnar Being A 'Blood Fest', Not Wanting To Take Bumps During Training

On the premier episode of E&C's Pod Of Awesomeness, WWE Universal Champion Goldberg talked about his gruelling preparation for his current WWE run and his match with Brock Lesnar this Sunday at WrestleMania. Goldberg professed that WWE sent him a ring and Curtis Axel to help him get in in-ring shape; however, the three-time world champion is not interested in practicing bumps.

"They sent a ring out here for me to prepare. Hennig's kid came out and I did some stuff. The reality is, I didn't take a lot of bumps. And a bump is just a bump, so if I'm going to take a bump, I'm going to take it in realtime. I'm not going to die. I'm not going to break anything. I'm not brittle."
Goldberg acknowledged that his current WWE run is vindication for his lackluster exit from the company following WrestleMania 20. With that said, Goldberg stressed that coming back at 50 years old makes things more difficult.

"It just makes it a lot more difficult to perform that vindication coming back at WrestleMania after 13 years. The first WrestleMania match wasn't well-received. I know why. And then, now, everybody's like, 'okay, well, Goldberg can only go two moves. He can't go 13 seconds or whatever without sweating. How are they going to put a show on for this one to be better or much better or great compared to what they did before?'"

Goldberg shared that he hopes to bring out some stuff the fans have not yet seen from him at WrestleMania 33 and he indicated that the Universal Championship match will be a "blood fest".

"I was born into this position and I'm going to do what I'm told to do. And I'm going to do, at the end of the day, what I think people want to see. Well, hopefully, at 33, I'm about to bring out some stuff that I haven't shown, that I haven't been about to do because of television restraints." Goldberg reflected, "I think this is going to be a blood fest. This is going to be a knock down, drag out war."

WWE Unveils A Statue Of Ric Flair At WrestleMania AXXESS

During Thursday’s WrestleMania 33 AXXESS festivities, WWE unveiled a statue of Ric Flair. WWE posted several videos to their Instagram account, which you can see below. Charlotte Flair also tweeted about the statue.

WWE also released a statement announcing the statue, which read, “At WrestleMania Axxess on Thursday night, a life-sized statue of the stylin’, profilin’, limousine riding, jet flying, kiss-stealing, wheelin’ n’ dealin’ son of a gun was revealed in front of hundreds of members of the WWE Universe and the two-time WWE Hall of Famer himself.

The presentation puts the 16-time World Champion in an exclusive club of legendary competitors who have been immortalized in bronze by New York City-based sculptor Karen Atta, who has also constructed statues of Andre The Giant, Dusty Rhodes, Bruno Sammartino and The Ultimate Warrior.”

WWE Smackdown Women’s Title Match Possibly Moved Back to Main Card After Negative Fan Reaction

While this is definitely not a confirmation of things to come, the Smackdown Women’s Championship match scheduled for this Sunday’s WrestleMania pay-per-view may have been moved back to the main card after a fair amount of online outrage.

It was announced Tuesday during Smackdown Live that the bout, which will see champion Alexa Bliss defend her title against “all eligible Superstars” on the roster, had been moved to the WrestleMania Kickoff Show. This didn’t sit well with a large group of people, and fans took to social media immediately frustrated that their favorite Smackdown female stars had been relegated off the main card. The match is no longer specifically listed as a Kickoff match on WWE.com or the WWE App. Again, this doesn’t confirm any plans for Sunday’s big event, only that its listing has been changed after backlash from fans, and that they may be considering moving parts of the show around.

Update On Shelton Benjamin’s Shoulder Injury

Shelton Benjamin was supposed to return to WWE as part of the SmackDown Live brand last year but those plans were put on hold after he discovered that had a torn rotator cuff, which led to his return to the company to be delayed.

Benjamin recently noted on Twitter that he has been cleared to compete. Keep in mind that he still needs to pass WWE’s standard medical tests before he can return to the company.

"After 9 of the hardest months of my life, I'm happy to announce I have been OFFICIALLY CLEARED to return to action. Effective Immediately!" - were his words

Triple H Reveals Enzo Amore Was Almost Fired

Triple H appeared on ESPN yesterday to promote WrestleMania, and found himself speaking on WWE’s current recruitment process. As the conversation moved to what WWE looks for in new talent, Triple H told a story of how whenever Enzo Amore’s review came up in developmental, HHH and Dusty Rhodes were the only ones who didn’t want to cut him.

“THERE’S BEEN GUYS THAT HAVE MADE IT THAT OVER THE COURSE OF A COUPLE OF YEARS THAT WERE CONSTANTLY ON THE CUT LIST,” LEVESQUE TOLD ESPN. “ENZO AMORE, WHEN I BROUGHT HIM IN, EVERYONE AT THE TRYOUT WAS SAYING, ‘GET RID OF THIS KID!’ I WAS LIKE, ‘HE’S GOT A HUGE PERSONALITY. IF HE CAN ANNOY US ALL THIS BAD HERE, IMAGINE WHAT HE CAN DO ON TV.’ … EVERY TIME HE’D GET HIS REVIEW, THEY’D BE LIKE, ‘I’D CUT HIM.’ DUSTY [RHODES] AND I WOULD BE LIKE, ‘KEEP HIM.’ LOOK AT HIM NOW. … IS HE EVER GOING TO MAKE YOU MONEY FROM AN IN-RING PERFORMER STANDPOINT? PROBABLY NOT. BUT HE’S MONEY ON THE MIC.”


Triple H would also comment on what it is like to be both the COO of the company and a part-time talent as well.

“IT’S PROBABLY THE HARDEST THING I THINK I’VE DONE IN MY CAREER — DO THE DEAL WHERE YOU’RE NOT IN THE RING FOR A YEAR,” HE SAID. “YOU CAN DO ALL THE CARDIO YOU WANT, YOU CAN LOOK AS GREAT AS YOU WANT, YOU CAN DIET, YOU CAN DO ALL THOSE THINGS, BUT THEN GETTING IN THERE — WHEN YOU DO IT EVERY DAY, IT’S AUTOMATIC. THERE’S NO THINKING. YOU JUST DO. WHEN YOU HAVEN’T DONE IT IN A YEAR, YOU JUST THINK, AND THAT’S WHAT MAKES IT TOUGH.”

Iconic Tag Team Expected To Make Their WWE Return Soon (Potential Spoilers)

According to Dave Meltzer of F4WOnline.com, The Hardy Boys are expected to make their WWE return soon. In fact, he said that they can contractually debut as soon as Wrestlemania

It is not known at this time what brand they will be on, though the RAW tag team titles match being a ladder match at Wrestlemania has created speculation about the tag team making their return in some capacity during that match. Both Jeff and Matt Hardy will be at a WWN tailgate party in Orlando the morning of Wrestlemania, which means they will be in the area hours before the PPV, though it is worth noting that they have planned to have a viewing party the night of WrestleMania.

Anderson/Gallows Expected To Retain Raw Tag Titles At WrestleMania

Come this Sunday, Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson will be your W-W-E Raw Tag Team Champions for more than 60 days. They are expected to retain the titles with outside interference from a familiar face… or should I say heel?

Many may expect Enzo and Big Cass to finally win the titles at WrestleMania 33, but as always, they’ll get a great pop and sing-along in their entrances, then lose yet again; with Big Cass maybe turning heel on the night after Raw.

Backstage rumors dictate that Finn Balor will interfere in the Triple Threat Ladder Match on Sunday to consequently reunite the Bullet Club with Finn as leader. If he doesn’t interfere, expect Finn to have a cameo during the Seth Rollins-HHH match. Balor is all healthy and ready to go but will not have a match at WrestleMania due to inadequate time for a build towards ‘Mania. Expect Balor to be in a type of cameo, the same way Cena did it last year.

Update On Summer Rae’s Return To WWE

Summer Rae hasn’t wrestled since August of 2016, and while she has shared that she’s dealing with an injury, details have been minimal concerning the nature and prognosis for recovery.

A new report details that she’s rather close to a comeback, and the timing looks great as there are several opportunities opening up where the former football player could be used.

On Raw, the brand she’s technically a part of, Sasha Banks looks set to turn heel soon and this may leave Bayley as the only babyface on the roster (depending on what goes on with Dana Brooke post-WrestleMania). Summer’s best work’s been as a heel, but she could excel at either role if given the chance.

Or, a perhaps more intriguing option, is she could jump to SmackDown, where a multi-woman championship match is looming for WrestleMania 33.

In fact, in reporting that Summer is down in Orlando at the WWE Performance Center working on getting cleared for a return, Squared Circle Sirens says Vince McMahon has talked about using both her and Emma in the blue brand’s title tilt on April 2.

Emma’s return to Raw has been promoted for a long time now, and it would seem strange for her to jump ship now, but it could be a better choice for Summer Rae.

Another Title Match Being Added At Wrestlemania 33 Card?

This is how the poster might look like :

Major Update On Undertaker’s Opponent For WrestleMania 34

A year from now, WrestleMania 34 will emanate from the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans, Louisiana. This is where the ‘streak’ was broken by the Beast Incarnate, Barrrack Lessnar. This is a chance for the dead man to seek redemption.

But back to this year’s ‘Mania which is just about 9 days away. Undertaker’s match on April 2nd is expected to be a very short one because of his lingering hip injury. This injury was obvious during the Royal Rumble and it was obvious when ‘Taker took the spear from Roman Reigns. The reason why of all people: Roman Reigns, is The Undertaker’s opponent for next week’s WrestleMania is because management believes that this will be a draw for the casual fan. Management also believes that this will be a (*gulp*), passing of the torch if you will.

But it wasn’t supposed to be Roman Reigns. It was supposed to be John Cena. The change was brought about, because an injured ‘Taker versus John Cena won’t do justice to the technical aspect of wrestling. The Undertaker won’t be able to showcase his full repertoire against John Cena.  Its a good thing that it is just Roman Reigns since Roman has a limited move set. The match should be pretty short to lessen the agony and pain for the dead man.

Next year at Mania 34, when the Undertaker all heals up from his upcoming hip surgery, he will be already to go and fight of what will be… an awesome ‘Slobberknocker’ with John Cena.
