As seen during WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event on July 12th 2025, world heavyweight champion Gunther defeated Bill Goldberg in what was Goldberg’s final match. After the show ended, Cody Rhodes came to the ring and gave the following promo…

“Ladies and gentlemen, let’s hear it for Bill Goldberg! He’s been world champion, hall of famer, wrestling royalty. I was down the street in the [Georgia Dome] when he hoisted up Hulk Hogan. I saw it myself. It was magic. Tonight, each and every one of us got to see it again. It was magic once again. Thank you, very very much. I want to thank you on behalf of the entire WWE locker room for everything that you’ve ever done. You made the table so that we can eat on this day. Thank you so, so much. You’re not just wrestling royalty, though. You’re Georgia royalty. You’re Atlanta royalty. If this is it, the chant that thousands of people, arenas all over the world, millions watching at home, that has filled every single arena. I’d love to hear it one more time.” (quote courtesy of Jeremy Lambert)
