WWE set to bring back 55-year-old Goldberg for Elimination Chamber clash with Roman Reigns in Saudi Arabia
GOLDBERG looks set to return to WWE for a dream match against Universal Champion Roman Reigns at Elimination Chamber.
According to Fightful, the WWE Hall of Famer will challenge Reigns for the title on February 19 at the Jeddah Super Dome in Saudi Arabia.
The four-time world champion has a specific deal penned down with Vince McMahon's promotion regarding pay-per-view shows in the Middle East.
The 55-year-old claimed last summer that he only has two more matches on his current WWE contract, and that was before his victory over Bobby Lashley at Crown Jewel in the Arab state.
That means the American bruiser's reported fight with Reigns could be his last one for the time being.
Goldberg and The Head of the Table were initially scheduled to face off two years ago at WrestleMania 36.
However, Reigns had to pull out after the coronavirus pandemic broke out as he had recently come back from a second bout with leukaemia.
Therefore, the five-time world champion was replaced by Braun Strowman who won the title.
LATEST IN SUN BINGO AND VEGAS
Goldberg has been a regular in WWE's shows in Saudi Arabia as the wrestling giants tend to go big due to their multi-million-dollar deal with the kingdom.
The former World Heavyweight Champion lost to The Undertaker during a disastrous bout at Super ShowDown 2019.
The heavyweight athlete then beat 'The Fiend' Bray Wyatt for the Universal Championship on the same show a year later.
That sparked a furious reaction from the WWE Universe who felt that the veteran was taking the spotlight away from younger stars, especially The Fiend who was the most dominant wrestler on the roster at the time.
Goldberg returned last year and defeated Lashley following his loss to the current WWE Champion at SummerSlam.
