There’s been a lot of back and forth over the past month regarding Goldberg having one more match. The WWE Hall of Famer was on ESPN’s College GameDay on Saturday. He announced that Nick Khan, Triple H, and Chris Legentil told him that he’d have his WWE retirement match in 2025.
Goldberg even referred to Gunther as his victim. Dave Meltzer, via F4WOnline Daily Update, proclaimed that the speculated Goldberg vs. Gunther showdown isn’t planned for next year’s Royal Rumble.
That leaves WrestleMania 41 as an obvious destination for Goldberg’s swansong. However, there’s no evidence for that. Moreover, Gunther’s penciled in for a match against John Cena that could pretty much happen at The Showcase of the Immortals in Las Vegas.
If that ends up happening at Mania, Bill Goldberg may just have to find solace in hanging up his boots at one of the two Saudi Arabia-hosted PLEs WWE does each year.

Goldberg last competed in Saudi Arabia two years ago at the Elimination Chamber. Back then, he lost to Roman Reigns. But now, given that he’s gunning for getting his pound of flesh on Gunther, it’s going to take a lot more.
