#2 Lust: Going after the WWE Championship
Trending
If you thought Goldberg only returned for a fat paycheck and one appearance, think again.
Not content with pinning Brock Lesnar and taking away an opportunity from someone else to do so, Goldberg is going after the title this time at the Royal Rumble. As he's made it abundantly clear, he’s only doing so to be a superhero for his wife and son. Of course, it’s also for the millions of kids who are cheering him on.
Lust works in different ways, and in this case, Goldberg is lustful for fame. Having never taken the business seriously in his lifetime, he wants another moment in the limelight. At a time when WWE needs new stars, Goldberg is a hindrance instead of an asset.
Brock Lesnar had been built as a monster who was squashing full-time performers left right and centre. Goldberg, a 49-year-old part-timer, beat Lesnar in all of 1 minute and 26 seconds. In doing so, Goldberg buried the entire full-time roster in a way.
Believe it or not, we are actually Goldberg fans. Despite the fact that he's only egged on by lust these days. Perhaps we lust for the days of the Monday Night Wars one more time.
