In the last two weeks or so I have been watching Youtube videos of wrestlers and in particular Bill Goldberg, and the thing that I found the most interesting to read is the Wikipedia entries for these wrestlers. If you read Bill Goldberg’s wiki article you will note that he was an American football star, and its fascinating to note that a lot of these wrestlers come from an American football background. Duane Johnson (the Rock) played American football and so did John Layfield. Other wrestlers that got my interest were Brock Lesnar and Kurt Angle. Brock Lesnar was an NCAA champion, tried out for American football and now fights in something called the Ultimate Fighting Championship. I also watched a video of Kurt Angle on Youtube where he spoke about his match against Brock Lesnar and it was great hearing how they seemed to agree on how a match would go, and how some of these wrestlers really get hurt.
The video of Bill Goldberg I like the most is where he wrestles against The Giant, or as he is now known in the WWE, The Big Show. The best part is where he jackhammer’s The Giant, who weighs 220 Kg. Check this out:
