Why Triple H brought back Goldberg to WWE
Goldberg made a surprise appearance at WWE Bad Blood 2024. The former Universal Champion did not intend to get involved; he was just out in the crowd in the front row with his wife and son, enjoying the show. However, things got heated after WWE World Heavyweight Champion Gunther mocked the WCW icon and took personal shots at him.
Following this, the Hall of Famer jumped the barricade, intending to go face-to-face with The Ring General before the security officials stopped him. The segment was seemingly held just to build a possible future feud between Goldberg and Gunther. The match can be booked for Royal Rumble 2025 and can lead to a WrestleMania 41 clash between these two.
After two years, it seems the Stamford-based promotion and Goldberg have finally agreed to a deal. Without further ado, let’s look at some potential reasons why Triple H brought back the Hall of Famer.
Goldberg could be back to put over Gunther
WWE World Heavyweight Champion Gunther is seen as the next big star of the promotion. He’s been in the title picture ever since he joined the main roster. The Ring General is a big-time Triple H guy and is being booked incredibly on the show week after week.
Every champion needs a remarkable and popular challenger, and the Stamford-based promotion might utilize Goldberg to further elevate The Ring General in an ultimate passing-of-the-torch moment.
Saudi Arabia might have asked to book WWE Hall of Famer at Crown Jewel 2024
WWE will host Crown Jewel 2024 this year on November 2, 2024, at the Mohammed Abdo Arena in Riyadh. Some feel that the people of Saudi Arabia are old-school professional wrestling fans, and rather than watching younger talents compete, they choose nostalgia and prefer to see legends face-off in a match.
Bill Goldberg was easily among the top names in professional wrestling at his peak. This year, Triple H has already revealed that they are planning to make Crown Jewel grander and even introduced a new championship. The Saudi management may have asked for Bill to be brought back for a bout at the premium live event.
Triple H could be keeping Vince McMahon's promise
In an interview, Goldberg revealed that Vince McMahon promised he would book a proper retirement match for him in the future if he competed in a bout against Roman Reigns and put him over.
There is a chance Triple H has finally agreed to book a proper retirement match for Bill Goldberg. Who knows, Gunther could be the guy who puts a full stop to the legendary career of the former WWE Universal Champion.
With Goldberg declaring to the WWE Universe “He’s Next,” it will be interesting to see how the Triple H-led creative books the feud between these two powerhouses.
