"There was already some speculation that Goldberg could make a WWE return when the company made him a bonus character in their latest video game, and the latest news will only add fuel to that fire. The former WWE wrestler will reportedly be in New York City this upcoming weekend, with SummerSlam 2016 set for Barclays Center in Brooklyn on Sunday night.
Goldberg is expected to be a part of a media event on Friday to promote WWE 2K17, and his time in New York City probably won’t include an appearance on WWE TV. But he hasn’t ruled out a return to the squared circle, and a few current WWE superstars would make sense as potential opponents if he does make a comeback in the near future.
Over the last few years, no match would have made more sense than Goldberg vs. Ryback. Fans constantly chanted “Goldberg” when Ryback was in the ring because of the similarities between the two wrestlers. But Ryback recently left the company, leaving other WWE superstars as potential options.
Pitting Goldberg against an established veteran would not make much sense. The former champion has expressed interest in facing off with Brock Lesnar, whom he defeated at WrestleMania 20. But after both superstars were booed out of Madison Square Garden 12 years ago, it’s probably best that their rivalry remains finished."
