Brad Armstrong makes his way out first, Goldberg is introduced as “Bill Goldberg” and I need to check when he dropped the first name.
Bobby “The Brain” Heenan, Tony Schiavone and Mike Tenay are on commentary for this match.

Brad Armstrong connects with right hands but Goldberg connects with knees and punches to the midsection before rolling through into the leg lock. Brad Armstrong shoves Goldberg but there’s no movement. Goldberg kicks Armstrong in the midsection and hits a military press powerslam. Heenan says Goldberg is the only person who would bring him back into managing. Goldberg shoves Armstrong into the corner for a knee to the ribs and sends the second-generation journeyman across the ring. Brad Armstrong staggers into a belly-to-belly suplex before begging off into the corner. Goldberg follows and is kicked in the midsection, Brad Armstrong’s punches are just being absorbed, he pokes Goldberg in the eye before hitting the side Russian leg sweep, which Tenay says is his signature move. Goldberg gets right to his feet and throws Brad Armstrong overhead with a pumphandle suplex.
Goldberg
runs through Brad Armstrong with a Spear and hits the Jackhammer for the win.
WINNER: BILL GOLDBERG
This was a Goldberg Streak match. I’m always
surprised when someone gets more than one hope spot in 2 minutes but that’s
personal preference. [*] 2.25/10
