During his appearance on Busted Open Radio, WWE Hall of Famer Bill Goldberg expressed his satisfaction with his son being able to see him perform in the ring.

โ€œIt was integral in the cap of my career. I could talk on it for hours, but I never wanted to get my family involved, ever. That just wasnโ€™t part of the Goldberg schtick. I was an invincible, uncaring monster in the ring. But I never wanted to have that crutch. I never wanted to have it as a storyline until I retired for 15 years, and I wasnโ€™t 300 pounds anymore, and I had to come back with some type of a crutch, some type of a bullseye that I hadnโ€™t had before they overcompensates for something else.

So as a father, it was awesome. It was unbelievable. Itโ€™s like having your kid out after you won the Super Bowl hoisting the trophy with you. To have your family be part of it in such a special time, itโ€™s something I will forever be grateful to Vince McMahon for.โ€
