Goldberg Touts Braun Strowman's Potential, Talks Future Stars

Braun Strowman has long garnered comparisons to dominant juggernaut Bill Goldberg. Now you can add praise from the man himself, too. 

During a recent interview on Eric Bischoff's Bischoff of Wrestling Podcast last week, Goldberg was asked who he thinks the next breakout star in the WWE could be.

”I can’t do that! I really can’t give you that answer because not only can’t I predict the future, I’m not good in Vegas, whatever the landscape is now it can drastically change in the next six to twelve months. As far if I had to go just based on a package and what could be done with it? I’d say Braun has a lot of potential. Lots of potential. If in every scenario everything was done properly and who is to say what is proper? If it’s properly massaged and cultivated with what he has to present against others. His package is pretty good. He’s got a high ceiling. He’s like the big guys from the past," said Goldberg.

Goldberg last appeared at WrestleMania 32 in a losing effort to Brock Lesnar, while Strowman has remained a key character on Monday Night Raw.
