Goldberg Might Ditch His Iconic Trunks for Final WWE Retirement Match

Goldberg is going all-in for his final WWE match—but the process has left him physically wrecked and rethinking even his signature look.

On his CarCast podcast, the Hall of Famer revealed that he bulked up so aggressively for his upcoming retirement match, he nearly hit 270 pounds—only to back off after feeling physically awful.

“I freakin’ eat eight times a day, and I walk around and I feel like I’m about to throw up at any given moment because I’m just completely full of frickin’ food… I was almost up to 270 and I had to back off because I could not function.”

Goldberg said his body felt so sluggish from the weight gain that he had to adjust his diet and cardio routine to find balance.

“I felt horrible, I wasn’t able to move around… I changed the diet back a little bit.”

The physical toll isn’t limited to food. Goldberg revealed that he’s dealing with a left knee injury that limits his ability to run, forcing him to do cardio on a sprint bike and adapt around the pain.

“I can’t run. I mean, I can run but, it hurts… The kickboxing doesn’t hurt that much because I’m not running.”

He also opened up about rehabbing his right shoulder after five years of barely using the arm due to intense pain. The turnaround only came recently.

“I haven’t been able to use my arm for five years… I had to retrain myself to do the normal, daily things and use my arm.”

And perhaps most surprising of all—Goldberg admitted he might not wear his iconic trunks for his final match.

“I’m terrified to put those underwear, those trunks on again. I may even go with different kind of trunks, for the only time in my life.”

Whether or not he keeps the classic look, Goldberg says he plans to deliver something unforgettable in the ring. He just hopes his performance matches the physical shape he’s fought so hard to get into.
