Goldberg Comments on Possible Roman Reigns Match

[Chris]

During an appearance on WWE's The Bump this morning, Goldberg teased that a match against Universal Champion Roman Reigns will be what's next for him in WWE.

On The Bump, it was brought up that Goldberg made a brief appearance in the WWE ThunderDome's video wall for Reigns' title defense against Braun Strowman at SmackDown's season premiere episode this October. Goldberg was asked if he has unfinished business with Reigns.

"Oh, I would say that is one of the most mild understatements that I have ever heard," Goldberg responded. "He backed out on me at WrestleMania. He stole my move -- god knows how long ago -- and he continues to perform it at subpar level. Let's be perfectly honest, I'm the dude who delivers the spear. And I don't think that he understands what it's like until I deliver one to him. So Roman, it's coming and I'm coming for you. I may be old, I may be gray, but I'm still Goldberg."

"Who's next? Roman's next," Goldberg said to conclude his appearance.

WWE.com posted an article about Goldberg's comments and WWE shared video of them on social media.

Goldberg and Reigns played college football for rival schools, with Goldberg going to the University of Georgia and Reigns going to Georgia Tech. Goldberg was supposed to defend the Universal Championship against Reigns at WrestleMania 36 this April, but Strowman replaced Reigns in the match after Reigns pulled out of the show as a precaution.

Strowman won the Universal Championship from Goldberg at WrestleMania and then dropped the title to "The Fiend" Bray Wyatt at SummerSlam this August. Reigns returned to WWE television at SummerSlam, attacking both The Fiend and Strowman following their match. Reigns then won the Universal Championship by defeating Strowman and The Fiend in a triple threat match at Payback.

Reigns is defending the Universal Championship against Kevin Owens in a tables, ladders, and chairs match at TLC on Sunday, December 20.

Goldberg is signed to a multi-year deal with WWE for two matches per year.

Goldberg's appearance on The Bump was to promote the WWE Untold episode on his WCW streak that's premiering on the WWE Network this Sunday.

We got our 'Mania match boys "this year for real this time" - WWE

 

[Dale]

Even with the new interesting character arc for Roman over the past few months, I don't see that being enough to make this watchable.

 

[Kiffy Lube]

Well it should happen at some point. I'd rather this would happen at the Royal Rumble though. Reigns has to win and someone else can have the feel good story at Wrestlemania like Daniel Bryan or if The Rock stops bein' pussy and takes down the Big Dog for the Family.

 

[Chris]

Rumble would def be preferable for this, get it out of the way instead of build towards 'Mania which I assume will be longer than last year's with no Saudi shows and what not

 

[Deezy]

Move Spammer match.

No thank you.

Big E is the guy. ....and give him his last name back.

 

[Buffy]

Not interested any match with Goldberg going forward. He should stay retired and live a peaceful life.

It they do this at wrestlemania then I really give up. They better not waste Roman’s WM match with Goldberg. Im sure they’re gonna have this match at some point. It’s almost guaranteed they will lol so yeah get it out of the way at the Rumble.

And it’s hilarious how he says that Roman performs at a subpar level when he fucking hit his head on the ring post trying to hit a spear and got concussed

 

[Hoss]

He only said Roman's spear was subpar. And I think 9/10 would agree that Goldberg's spear does look a lot more devastating. Probably because he couldn't give less of a fuck about whether he hurts his opponent or not.

Not exactly a good excuse

 

[Chris]

Both spears seemed to be the Fiend's kryptonite so maybe that's all anyone should try doing against him

 

[Deezy]

Anyone who does a spear shouldn't give a fuck about the other guy....murk them motherfuckers.

Be easier if it was more of a running double leg take down. Then you wouldn't hurt your opponent with your shoulder hitting the sternum.

You really don't want wrestlers to last more than 5 years do you? The goal of wrestling is to not hurt your opponent

 

[Deezy]

The wrestlers are already making sure they don't last 5 years.
