Like, does WWE know they can put Goldberg in matches that doesn't involve the title in any way?
Why was Dolph Ziggler the only non-championship match Goldberg's been in?

So doesn't Goldberg lose most of the time these days? Why, as a Goldberg fan, would I want to see him show up and get his ass kicked? It isn't like he was a workrate guy who put on great matches win or lose, his whole appeal is that he annihilates guys in seconds. Why am I supposed to want to see a guy I remember being a badass when I was a teenager looking like an old man who can't get the job done anymore? That's not nostalgia, that's a sad reminder of encroaching mortality.
They've got a roster filled with losers who they're determined to undermine and make sure don't get over already, why not throw another one of them to Goldberg to murder? That might actually be entertaining.

Forget this. Give Big E his match with his hero already.

The Lashley match was better than it had any right to be. But who wants this?

Hey everyone, remember when the Roman/Seth DQ at the Rumble was a brilliant finish because it was totally setting up a Seth and Roman feud?
Yeah, don't ever give this company an inch, they not only won't even have it be a Chamber feud, they're just gonna move on from it period. Of course they will, most interesting Roman and Seth have been in forever, throwing it to the side for more GOLDBERG AND BROCK, gotta give the people what they want right??

Although technically he's 2-0 when it specifically comes to challenging the reigning Universal champion.

I guess they want to give Roman the rub of being only the 4th dude to ever kick out of the Jackhammer. Of course, the problems with that are 1 - the law of diminishing returns and 2 - Goldberg being barely able to perform the move and the likelyhood of dropping Reigns on his head.

I would love for them to explain in kayfabe, how this old bloke in his mid 50s can keep coming back and getting title shots without ever earning them.
What gives Goldberg the power to go away for a year, come out and say "I'm challenging for the title"?
It makes absolutely no sense.

If this is what the Saudi's want, great. Saves it happening else when.

I don't mind that they're doing this, it's a spear vs spear attraction match with two big tough dudes who are genuinely big names, but I wish they'd do more with Goldberg and smaller talent. Goldberg/AJ could actually be good, and Goldy could throw AJ around a bit. Plus, the WCW connection could be brought up, which is cool.

Expected, pointless but expected. When the Saudi money says jump, the company says "how high".
I would like Goldberg to, well, I'd like Goldberg not to bother at all by this point but if he did then to work with some different talent that need the rub. But Bill's really not going to roll with that ever.

As a tried and true WCW fan back in the day, and a fan who LOVED Goldberg as a kid, I can’t believe this company has made me hate Goldberg.

At least with Goldberg you know going in this will be a really short match.

This is a way to give Roman another “accolade.”
This also makes the finish to Roman vs. Seth total crap.
