#5 Roman Reigns wants a match against Goldberg in WWE
Speaking to Alfonso Castillo of Newsday, WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns said that he has been lobbying for a match against Goldberg. On being asked if he wants to face The Rock, he said that while he would not mind that match, it is the former WCW World Champion that he truly wants to face.
“I would love that. If the opportunity comes along, of course I’m snatching it up. I don’t know if I’d lobby for it. The one that I've been lobbying for is the Goldberg match, because he was my idol as a kid. But, you don't get any better than the Rock.'' said Reigns
Reigns and Goldberg set to clash at WrestleMania 36. However, The Tribal Chief backed out of the match due to concerns surrounding the pandemic and was replaced by Braun Strowman. Since then, Goldberg has faced Drew McIntyre and Bobby Lashley but is yet to go one-on-one with Reigns.
