WWE Hall of Famer could make Royal Rumble return to set up retirement match
WWE may use Royal Rumble to set up Goldberg’s retirement match against Gunther at Saudi Arabia event in June 2025.
Triple H might bring Goldberg back at the 2025 Royal Rumble, potentially setting up the Hall of Famer’s final match. The event, scheduled for February 1 at Indianapolis’ Lucas Oil Stadium, could serve as the launching point for his retirement storyline.
The possibility gains credence from Goldberg’s previous interaction with Gunther at Bad Blood 2024. The WWE Hall of Famer has already confirmed plans for a retirement match in 2025.
Saudi Arabia event could host final match
A Royal Rumble appearance could reignite tensions with Gunther through a strategic elimination, leading to a post-WrestleMania 41 confrontation. With WWE scheduled for a Saudi Arabia premium live event in June 2025, the timing aligns for Goldberg’s farewell match.
The 58-year-old star has previously competed in four Saudi Arabia events, making the location a fitting stage for his final bout. However, his participation in the Royal Rumble remains unconfirmed.
