Goldberg's thoughts on Velasquez transitioning to pro wrestling
During the interview, Goldberg also gave his thoughts on Velasquez's wrestling and his potential inside the ring. Goldberg said that Velasquez could transition into wrestling pretty easily because of his background as a pro athlete:
"I saw a little bit of the coverage of his match. Put it this way, anyone in professional sports, who was in that sport for a lifelong dream, like myself - I played football, it's all I ever wanted to do - it's a great alternative, this wrestling business offers a lot. It really does for guys who are high-level professional athletes, to try to make the transition, especially with what Cain knows and what he's done in the past, it's an easy transition."
