WWE Australian tour filled with unpleasantness due to Goldberg

• The recent trip down to Australia for the Raw-Brand superstars was not as fun as they had hoped. There was much unpleasantness on the tour due to the rumor that got started that Goldberg was asked to replace Triple H on the tour due to HHH's injury and he refused.
  
  Two of the most vocal were fellow Clique members Kevin Nash & "The Heartbreak Kid" Shawn Michaels, who kept saying that Goldberg's refusal showed that he wasn't a team player and that they were going to have to do something about it once the tour returned to the States.
  
  Of course, later it was found out that Goldberg never refused to go on the tour. The reason he couldn't go was because he couldn't get his visa secured before the tour started. Once that information was released, the superstars who openly bashed Goldberg on the tour quickly returned to being friends with him backstage at Raw. Just another example of WWE politics at work and how a rumor can put a damper on everything and cause tempers to flare before the actual truth of the matter comes out.
