Goldberg went right to the point mentioning that he had his sights set towards Brock Lesnar for the WWE Championship. But since he would be busy with Ricochet at Super ShowDown, he had to focus on the different titles present on the SmackDown brand. He admitted to having the wills of having another run with the WWE Universal Title. So The Myth issued the challenge to The Fiend.

Although Bray Wyatt was loaded up with confidence for the suture showdown, Goldberg sent him a warning before going off the air. The veteran won’t go down without a fight, for sure especially considering this is a title match.
This is the first time that Goldberg is stepping inside the ring since SummerSlam 2019. Meanwhile, this is the first time he would compete in a title match after a gap of almost three years.
WWE’s return to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia takes place on Thursday, February 27 in the form of Super ShowDown on WWE Network. Goldberg vs. The Fiend could serve as the main event on a show that emanates from King Fahd International Stadium in Riyadh.
