Goldberg Rules Out Slapping Meat With WWE Star
Do you like big meaty men slapping meat? Goldberg doesn’t.
Former WWE Champion Big E has made no secret that his ultimate dream match would be against Goldberg. The New Day star has famously stated he’s no fan of work-rate, five-star classics and instead prefers his wrestling as “big meaty men slapping meat.”
Speaking to Chris Van Vliet, Goldberg was asked about having a match with Big E and said he’d have it tomorrow if he could but the “slapping meat” would have to be left to one side:
I’d give it to him tomorrow. We can leave that part out [big meaty men slapping meat] of it. Right when he says it to me Goldberg’s gonna have to drop him.
But yeah, I don’t do comedy, I never really meshed well with that. It’s like, you know, the Indiana Jones and the guy coming in and flashing his sword and you just pull a gun out and shoot him. It’s just that’s me. Less is more.
Big E vs. Goldberg Looks Unlikely To Ever Happen
Big E has not returned to the ring since breaking his neck on an episode of SmackDown in 2022. He was part of a tag team match pitting The New Day against Sheamus & Ridge Holland. Holland attempted an overhead belly-to-belly suplex on the floor to Big E but the New Day star did not fully rotate and he landed hard on the top of his head, causing the severe injury.
Big E recently revealed the one thing that’s stopping him from returning to a WWE ring as he looks to ensure he maintains a good quality of life moving forward.
