Get ready for a snowball in hell … ’cause sources tell TMZ Sports pro wrestling legend Bill Goldberg is in talks with WWE honchos about a possible return to the squared circle.
It’s huge news considering Goldberg HATED Vince McMahon when he left WWE back in 2004 — and repeatedly vowed to never work for the company ever again.
But Goldberg recently struck a deal to appear in the WWE 2K17 video game — and sources tell us the two sides are now talking about expanding their working relationship.
In fact, when we shot Goldberg out last week … we noticed that his anti-WWE stance has softened in a big way … and said he would even entertain an offer if company officials wanted to make a deal.
“Life’s too short to dwell upon past differences,” Goldberg told us … who also pointed out that he’s 49 years old and the “clock’s ticking.”
One plugged in source tells us Goldberg’s people have been in touch with the WWE about a return and “the wheels are in motion.”
We reached out to Goldberg’s rep, Uncle Louie, but he had no comment.
Stay tuned …
