Goldberg may be known by many fans for being an absolute beast in the ring, but the former WWE Universal Champion has revealed some personal facts about his life over the years.

One tidbit Goldberg revealed is that he is, in fact, Jewish, though admitted in an interview that he's not the most devout person, telling fans "I'm so far from religious it’s not even funny."

Though he may not consider himself overly religious, the Hall of Famer did get married in a traditional Jewish ceremony and has followed several Jewish holidays throughout his incredible life.

During his time in WCW, the former NFL star requested time off from touring for Yom Kippur and has said he considered incorporating the Star of David into his ring attire before scrapping the idea.
