It seems inevitable that Bill Goldberg will return to WWE for a match with Roman Reigns, but the former WCW icon has others in mind too.

During an interview with Bleacher Report, Goldberg revealed that he'd also like to work with Randy Orton, Drew McIntyre and Keith Lee in 2021. All three of those names were the first ones that came to Bill's mind after discussing a possible showdown with Reigns.

Obviously, due to recent reports that Lee will be sent back to WWE's Performance Center for more training, at least one of those could be difficult. The McIntyre and Orton bouts seem more likely.

Goldberg is mindful that it's getting harder and harder to live up to the reputation his name carries. He's 53 years old (he'll be 54 on 27 December), and is discussing the possibility of retiring once his current WWE deal expires in 2023.

Before then though, Bill has his sights set on a few more major matches. The first stop would be Roman; Goldberg vs. Reigns was supposed to happen at WrestleMania 36, but Roman's self-imposed sabbatical due to COVID concerns put the brakes on WWE's plans.
