WWE Hall Of Famer Goldberg made his return to WWE in 2016 after a hiatus of more than a decade from the company. He would go on to defeat Brock Lesnar in a squash match at Survivor 2016 and then win the Universal Championship against Kevin Owens in 2017. He defended his title against Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 33 in one of the main events of the show. As stated by his contract, Vince McMahon can only have him compete in one more match this year, so it has to mean something. It’s rumored to be the last match of his contract, so it may be his retirement match. Goldberg also admitted to mocking Ric Flair for being too old to be in the ring in the past. Goldberg also sent a bold message to a female WWE Superstar a few months ago.
Goldberg squared off against Bobby Lashley for the WWE Championship at WWE SummerSlam but was unable to continue on with the match due to getting injured as part of the storyline. Bobby Lashley won the match via referee’s stoppage.
He then had another match against Bobby Lashley at WWE Crown Jewel on October 21st in Saudi Arabia, where Goldberg finally managed to defeat him. Since then, the WWE Hall Of Famer has been absent from WWE television.
“I think Bill was like, Bill [Goldberg] got frustrated a lot going back to you know, the fact that he was new in the business and didn’t have, you know, a solid foundation experience that he could rely upon. So, there’s a lot of things that frustrated Bill.Was Bill frustrated at this point? Sure. But, not because he wasn’t being featured and wasn’t the star of the show. That’s not true. Not true at all. Bill was a team player. He was just not sure how to be a team player sometimes, you know, or whose team or side to join. He was pulled in a lot of different directions, but he was never the kind of guy that you know, where it all had to be about him. That was not him.”
