... let's take a look at how head boy Roman Reigns fared against Bill.

WWE seemed determined to put Goldberg inside a ring vs. Roman eventually. COVID robbed them of that in 2020, but Reigns had morphed into a different animal by 2022. The 'Tribal Chief' matched up well against anybody (and continues to do so), and his confidence was unrivalled.

The way Roman carried himself during the build towards Elimination Chamber should be used as a guide for any top heel. He was arrogant when he had to be, slightly cowardly when Goldberg's aura needed a boost, and generally smashed his own presentation throughout.

Then, come bell time, Reigns choked Bill out with a guillotine in Saudi Arabia. This was almost payback for those who had lived through the agony of Goldberg vs. Bray Wyatt and The Undertaker in the country. Good on Bill for redeeming himself by doing the honours for pro wrestling's best all-rounder.
