WCW Monday Nitro, 1998

Tony:
The fans stand, showing their signs, and we are walking with Goldberg, and security from Goldberg's own locker room area following with him all the way to the ring, as you look live back in the locker room area. Surrounding Goldberg, some of Atlanta's finest, Doug Dillinger as well with WCW security, and here they come.

Bobby:
What's going through his mind right now? I've never been in that situation, going for a world championship, let alone with that list of victories this man has, in his backyard, hometown in front of everybody he played for, played with. What an evening, what drama right now.

Tony:
Long walk for Goldberg, but it's been a long wait since he arrived in the Georgia Dome earlier in the day. So what's another long walk for Goldberg? They're almost down here now.

[Goldberg now walks alone]

Bobby:
Well, Hogan may be taking a long walk too. A real long walk back to the dressing room empty-handed.

Tony:
But could the unblemished mark, the incredible series of wins by Goldberg come to a crashing end here tonight?

Bobby:
And you know, Tony, if Hogan is to defeat this man, you know what the nWo's gonna be like then with Hogan and Eric Bischoff in charge.

Tony:
[as Goldberg reaches the entrance] And there he is.

Mike Tenay:
And here comes the eruption.

Bobby:
Bigger than before.

Tony:
This is his moment.

[Goldberg stands on the ramp as the pyrotechnics envelope him for twenty seconds. When they subside, he walks to the ring surrounded by the security from before]

Bobby:
It's a long way down.

Tony:
There you look at Goldberg, and think about what Goldberg represents. A virtual unknown in this sport who walked into WCW, and he represents every wrestler who wanted just to walk in here and become the World Champ. That's what he represents as he makes his way to the ring.

Bobby:
He looks ready! Do it for me! Do it for the fans! Get rid of Hogan! And what's Hogan's mentality gonna be at Bash at the Beach if he's not heavyweight champion of the world along with Rodman?
