Goldberg also added that he sees his younger self in the WWE Champion Bobby Lashley. He said,

“That’s been, hands down, Brock Lesnar, a hundred percent. He is a breed of his own. I like to say that he’s, you know, he’s is an extremely similar character to mine. Mainly because that’s who we are. That’s truly how we are. Not much of a departure, once a good guy, once a bad guy. Not much difference. He’s, he’s kind of like going up against myself. And I, you know, kinda see that in Bobby Lashley too. But a younger version of myself.”

Goldberg has won it all in WWE. So for Bobby Lashley to get such a compliment from him is certainly a big deal; even though he is Goldberg’s opponent.
