Much of the hate already flooding social media has been caused by Bill Goldberg's win over Bray Wyatt's 'Fiend' in the main event. Whilst this guy would agree that Goldberg shouldn't be World Champion in 2020, he also thinks there's no getting away from another, less talked about fact.

Goldberg vs. Roman Reigns screams WrestleMania more than Reigns vs. Wyatt did.

To the hardcores, Goldberg is a relic of the WCW years who shows up looking older by the appearance and nonsensically squashes full-time talent. To some older fans though, he's a nostalgic guilty pleasure who scratches that primal itch to watch big guys throw others around or run through them with Spears.

In Vince McMahon's playground, Goldberg vs. re-emerging poster boy Reigns is a bigger deal than Goldberg vs. a supernatural gimmick. It also shouldn't be lost in all of this that mystical, cartoonish characters like Wyatt's 'Fiend' don't really need championships at all. They're attractions all on their own.
