Following an intense exchange between GUNTHER and Goldberg at WWE Bad Blood, the wrestling community was in a frenzy. GUNTHER, the current World Heavyweight Champion, took an opportunity to stir things up by speaking to Goldberg, who was seated ringside with his family, ahead of his impending championship unification battle against Cody Rhodes at Crown Jewel.

Goldberg was specifically singled out in GUNTHER's promo, which said that he regretted naming him his favorite wrestler in the past and added, "I hope you're a better father than a wrestler." Goldberg was offended by this slur and tried to approach GUNTHER by jumping the barricade right away, but security stopped him.

After the heated exchange, many wondered whether WWE was setting the stage for GUNTHER and Goldberg to face off in the future. A dream match at Survivor Series or possibly WrestleMania was envisioned by many as a result of this. However, according to Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, GUNTHER vs. Goldberg is not scheduled to be on Survivor Series or WrestleMania. Despite this, it seems like WWE still has Goldberg in mind.

"There are plans for Goldberg in the future," WrestleVotes said during a recent Backstage Pass Q&A, hinting at Goldberg's potential future participation in WWE. Speculation has now shifted to whether Goldberg would unexpectedly show up at Crown Jewel to meddle in GUNTHER's championship unification match against Rhodes, though nothing has been verified.

WWE has lots of chances to schedule the fantasy fight that fans are demanding for a number of upcoming events, including Saturday Night's Main Event, the Royal Rumble, and WWE's upcoming Saudi Arabia show in February. Later, it was revealed that neither WrestleMania 41 nor Survivor Series: WarGames 2024 will include a Goldberg vs. GUNTHER bout.
