Goldberg: WWE return has made me 'absolutely miserable'

Bill Goldberg's return to the WWE ring hasn't been all fun and games.

The 50-year-old opened up about his comeback and the toll his intense training regime has taken on his body on the debut episode of E&C's Pod Of Awesomeness.

"I am nothing but a machine now," Goldberg said, as transcribed by Wrestling Inc. "I get up in the morning. I eat. I train. I eat. I go to the bathroom about 20 times intermittently throughout the day because I'm shoving 15 to 20,000 calories in my body and it doesn't know what's going on. At 50 years old, it has no idea."

Goldberg also admitted he's been "miserable" during his current WWE run.

"I'll be honest, I'm miserable. I'm absolutely miserable. But my family's having fun, man. And so, every single thing, every training session, every ART massage that makes me cry, every muay thai session, it's all worth it, man. It's just worth it," he said. "And, hey, at the end of the day, if I want to smile, I'll buy a car. That's how I'm happy. I did, I bought one on the way back from (Survivor Series in) Toronto because I worked my ass off."

Goldberg will defend his WWE Universal title against Brock Lesnar on Sunday at WrestleMania 33.
