Triple H and Goldberg have a long history, with tension well documented between the two over the years, including regarding Goldberg's final match with the company against Gunther. Goldberg noted that he could not have done the bout without Triple H.

Goldberg said the dynamic was different when he signed because he and Triple H could not stand each other. Both were represented by the same agent, and they had a confrontation before Goldberg went to WWE. Triple H was also married to Vince McMahon's daughter at the time.

It was different at the time, because he and I couldn't stand each other. We were both represented by the same agent, and we had a confrontation prior to me going to the WWE, and then, oh, by the way, he was married to Vince McMahon's daughter, so I mean it was kind of like me walking into an unwinnable situation, but I think business prevailed, and truthfully, at the end of the day, he's a good guy.

Goldberg had previously said he wanted to rip Triple H's face off when he signed with WWE.
