aew Goldberg is a free agent: Signing with AEW?

Goldberg is out of WWE, having departed the market-leading promotion following his contract's expiry late last year - and Stamford's closest competition has called the situation "interesting."

Speaking with Adrian Hernandez for The Bet Las Vegas, AEW founder and booker Tony Khan showed an interest in Goldberg's situation. Calling the WCW and WWE legend a "great professional athlete", as well as a "household name", Khan stated it was "interesting" to hear that the 56-year-old was now free and available (h/t Wrestling Observer):-

"I have a lot of respect for Bill. I think Bill Goldberg is a great professional athlete and has had a great career in pro wrestling and is a very nice person. He's a household name in pro wrestling, so it's interesting to hear that he is a free agent so that's something to follow. He's one of the biggest names in wrestling and certainly will be something else to keep an eye on for us."

"Bill is an exceptionally exciting name and one of the biggest names in the sport. It's certainly a big thing for us to pay attention to. I would take notice of that. It's interesting."

I couldn’t find the clip on YT, nor could I be bothered to upload it myself but this made me think of the time HHH gave a speech to the Tough Enough cast, basically ripping on Goldberg for not being someone an inspiring wrestler should look up to. I think one of them might have had a Goldberg poster on their wall or something. Can’t say I’m surprised HHH didn’t want to renew that contract for matches.
