Goldberg! Goldberg! Goldberg! Legions of believers echo the war chant summoning pro wrestling's greatest gladiator. Owner of wrestling's longest winning streak, 170-0, he has captured wrestling and movie stardom. The big question is – Who's Next?

Obake, Japanese for "spirit of the monster" is Goldberg incarnate. Disposing of opponents with viper-like swiftness, he strikes with awesome devastation utilizing the "spear and the jackhammer." Sporting a closely cropped scalp, trade-mark tattoo and psyched-up entrance, this muscle mass of intensity has exploded on WCW with incredible force sending shock waves of acclaim around the world.

Before his wrestling success, Goldberg's relentless, attacking style attracted two-time All-SEC honors at nose guard for the University of Georgia Bulldogs and pro football stints with the Atlanta Falcons and Los Angeles Rams.

As a long time Oakland Raiders fan who idolized the late, crazed John Mutuszak, Goldberg enjoys "living on the edge." He grew up flying gliders and acrobatic planes with his two brothers in Tulsa. Even though he is the son of a doctor and a concert violinist, he spends most of his time supplying patients rather than being one. Goldberg champions the cause for animals as spokesman for the Humane Society of the United States. He has twice spoken to Congress on Capitol Hill concerning animal-fighting laws.

Goldberg has gained the spotlight with cover profiles in "Entertainment Weekly," "TV Guide" and "POV," along with articles in "People," "Spin," "Rolling Stone," "Gear," "Jerusalem Report," "React Magazine," "The New York Daily News" and "USA Today." He has appeared on the "Tonight Show with Jay Leno," "Live with Regis & Kathie Lee" and "The Dennis Miller Show." Goldberg made his TV acting debut on "The Love Boat." His first big screen project was Universal Soldier II with Jean Claude Van Damme.

Bursting with activity, maybe the real question for Goldberg is – What's Next?
