Whether in WCW or in WWE, Bill Goldberg has been a force to be reckoned with in the ring, resulting in World Championship reigns over four decades. In recent years, Goldberg has been outspoken about wanting one final match before ending his in-ring career, and that match will come in 2025.
Appearing for SEC Nation, Goldberg was shown footage of his confrontation with GUNTHER from WWE Bad Blood 2024 in Atlanta, Georgia. The WWE Hall of Famer confirmed that he will have his retirement match next year and said the Austrian is the current front-runner to be his next “victim.” GUNTHER has been open to the match and has vowed to teach Goldberg a lesson should they get in the ring.
Given what transpired at Bad Blood, GUNTHER certainly makes sense as the opponent-of-choice for Goldberg. If not the reigning World Heavyweight Champion, WWE could build a compelling feu of spear vs. spear between Goldberg and Bron Breakker. The reigning Intercontinental Champion is part of the Steiner family, who are no strangers to Goldberg from his days back in WCW.
2025 is shaping up to be a huge year for WWE, as John Cena will also end his in-ring career over the next 12 months. Stay tuned to SEScoops for the latest from WWE on the farewells of Goldberg and Cena that will take place next year.
