Former Atlanta Falcon, so the dude has serious athletic chops and instincts.

He is a FAN of MMA, and has followed it for years. He owned gyms before the business blew up, therefore he would have had passion for pursuing it.

He has stated if the money was in MMA in the late 90's, he likely would have done that instead of pro wresting where he made millions.

How do you think he would have done? Who do you think he would be comparable to?
 
He got tooled by Jericho in a shoot fight. So if that is an indicator he would not do well.

Fellow FSU fan, so I'll take it easy. Jericho admitted the fight was a skirmish that lasted 15 seconds before it got broken up, he basically was in Goldbergs guard and flailing punches, he said he's happy it got broken up and he's lucky. From the horses mouth himself, he didn't whoop Goldbergs ass, that's a myth.
 
It was a different world then. Things happen all the time. When everybody is holding on to their position like I got to do this, I got to do that, Goldberg and I saw wrestling from both sides of a different coin. But both of us were very successful. There wasn’t a lot of interest on his end to work with me in WCW. There was a little animosity between us that transferred to the WWE. We had a scuffle — it wasn’t what everyone says — where Jericho took him down and tied him in a knot. I stood up for myself and held my ground. It was what it was. It was unfortunate for Bill, it was on his first day, so he kind of got labeled right off the bat.”

“If you want to score it, Jericho – 1, Goldberg – 0. There will never be a rematch, ever. If it ever happens, I’ll run away screaming because I’m not going to say I got lucky, but I’m glad the outcome was the way it was because I thought he was going to tear my head off. Bill [Goldberg] is a good guy, man, I have nothing but love for him, nothing but respect.”

Found the quote.
 
Since Regal an Jericho schooled his ass, i think not as well as some would assume.
 
I thought he did fight a couple low level MMA bouts. I must be thinking of someone else...
 
He should have entered the 2000 PRIDE GP.

Fight Saku in the opening round.

Full gimmick and entrance.

PPV dollars.
 
He is a freak Athlete, maybe no good as Brock but he could have been done good in strikeforce/pride/other Japanese orgs
 
easily UFC HW champ

until he gasses ofc
 
9-8 record

Would be known for his body slams and leg locks.
