Goldberg thinks only Bron Breakker should be allowed to use spear in WWE
Hall of Famers Goldberg and The Undertaker are both on the same page — Bron Breakker is the only WWE wrestler who should be using the spear as a move after Goldberg retires from the ring.
On a recent episode of his Six Feet Under podcast, Undertaker said he thinks WWE should take the spear away from everyone else because Breakker’s version of the move is so impressive. Goldberg agrees with that and has expressed the sentiment to Breakker.
“1000 percent,” Goldberg told CBS Sports when asked if he agrees with Undertaker. “I had the conversation last night with Bron. And I told him my feelings on it, that I think, 1000 percent, he’s the only human being in the WWE that should be doing that. I know I’m going to catch a lot of hell from that, but I don’t care. Because that’s the truth. I mean, it is what it is.”
Goldberg, who played football in college and the NFL, popularized the spear as a pro wrestling signature move during his WCW career. In addition to Breakker, Roman Reigns, Jey Uso, and Charlotte Flair are among the current WWE wrestlers who regularly do the move.
The son of Rick Steiner, Breakker has now been a pro wrestler for four years, joining WWE after playing college football at Kennesaw State University and spending time in NFL training camp with the Baltimore Ravens. He’s aligned with Seth Rollins and Bronson Reed on WWE Raw as the members of a new faction led by Paul Heyman.
Goldberg will likely deliver the final spear of his in-ring career this weekend when he has his retirement match against Gunther at Saturday Night’s Main Event in Atlanta. Gunther’s World Heavyweight Championship will be on the line in the bout.
