1. To Get Ready For More Matches
One of the reasons why Goldberg vs. The Undertaker didn’t live up to the hype was ring rust.
With Goldberg now set to return to in-ring action two months after his WWE Super ShowDown match, Goldberg will most probably be prepared to have a smooth match with Dolph Ziggler (who is a great worker).
This match with Ziggler will help get Goldberg ready for future matches in WWE.
According to The Dirty Sheets, WWE was said to be “all in” on Goldberg’s return and that Goldberg agreed to work three consecutive WWE PPVs in Saudi Arabia for a total amount of $6 million.
Goldberg’s next match in Saudi Arabia would’ve taken place at the October PPV, where he would have teamed up with “The Big Dog” Roman Reigns to take on the team of the “Best In The World” Shane McMahon and a partner of his choosing.
After this, the plan was to book a WWE Championship match between Goldberg & Roman Reigns at the May/June 2020 Saudi Arabia PPV (no word on who was planned to be the WWE Champion heading into this match).
These aren’t the only matches that Goldberg agreed to work. WWE officials planned on doing 3 matches between Goldberg & The Undertaker in 2019 (tap here to know more).
If WWE decides to move back to this plan of Goldberg having more matches, then a match against Ziggler would be a good way to take off the ring rust.
