Dating back to the days of WCW, Bill Goldberg and Chris Jericho did not see eye to eye. This didn’t change when the two wound up in the same WWE locker room in 2003!

Chris Jericho is an outspoken, no-nonsense guy with a history of confronting wrestlers such as Brock Lesnar and Sin Cara when the situation called for it.

On the other hand, Goldberg is a more soft-spoken individual, and he hasn’t gone on record to talk about this fight – to no real surprise.

[{"selector":"#anim-4020d3b9-87ef-45f8-bff2-cac5c62f152a","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-137.87234%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

In Chris Jericho’s recommended second autobiography, Undisputed: How to Become World Champ in 1,372 Easy Steps, Y2J detailed what happened between the two backstage in WWE in 2003:

Chris Jericho: "I marched straight into the dressing room. Throwing caution to the wind, I stood in front of Goldberg and stared directly into his eyes. 'I heard you were saying some stuff about me during my match. This isn’t WCW. If you have something to say to me, say it to my face!'"
