Ranking Every Goldberg Match In WWE Since His 2016 Return
8. Vs. Braun Strowman: WrestleMania 36
Following Roman Reigns’ decision to leave WWE at the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic, Universal Champion Goldberg was left without a dance partner for WrestleMania. The Monster Among Men stepped in on the final SmackDown before WrestleMania, allowing for literally zero build between the two goliaths of wrestling.
At The Showcase of the Immortals, fans got what they would expect between the two behemoths with Spears and running Powerslams galore. In the end, Braun Strowman was finally able to put Goldberg away with his fourth Powerslam and won his first Universal Championship. Even if it was a move done out of sheer desperation, it was still a welcome sight to see the former Wyatt Family member toppling Goldberg.
The absence of fans inside the WWE Performance Center obviously took away from the match, as did the last minute booking, but it was far from an awful showing from Goldberg and Braun Strowman.
