Goldberg didn’t always find a door when performing his customary pre-match headbutt, and he recently recalled his reaction to headbutting a wall. The WWE Hall of Famer appeared on Ernest “The Cat” Miller and Ray Keziah’s *The Cat’s Corner Podcast*, where Miller asked about the time Goldberg inadvertently headbutted a wall and what went through his mind afterward. Goldberg said (per Fightful):
“Nothing, except for, ‘Why didn’t I touch it first?,’”
“You would have thought my martial arts days would have taught me better. You know as well as I do, when you walk in a gym, you always touch a bag before you kick it. Because it could be one of those 400-pound bags that are made of concrete that are just there to toughen up your shins, whatever we’re doing it for. It’s not the bag that you throw head kicks at full force, or low kicks.”
Goldberg is expected to have his retirement match for WWE in 2025, though the exact timing remains unconfirmed.
