Goldberg is known as one of the true legends of professional wrestling. He even says there’s one match left in the tank. The former WCW and WWE champion is known in the squared circle as a man of few words. When it comes to his alma mater’s football team, Goldberg is quite outspoken.

Bill Goldberg has always stayed loyal to his school. Goldberg is a massive Bulldogs fan. TMZ Sports caught up with the wrestling star in the wake of Georgia’s national championship victory over the Alabama Crimson Tide. Bill was psyched to see his team win their first title in over 40 years.

“I would say the entire Bulldog Nation is … I don’t wanna say stunned by any stretch of the imagination. But we’re pinching ourselves and finally coming to the realization that the curse is freaking broken and it feels really good.
