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. During an appearance on Busted Open Radio, AEW star MJF commented on potentially having a match against Goldberg despite Goldberg being “retired” from wrestling…

“If Goldberg wants some, I’m right here. But I will embarrass him. I will demolish him. I will snap, crack, and pop every single tendon, ligament, and bone in his stupid, old, musty body. You know who’s next? Nobody. He’d be last. Capiche? If he wants a proper send-off, he should be facing a generational talent. I’m right here if he’s interested. But, A, I’m going to need to be paid a lot of money if you want to see that match. And B, I would imagine he doesn’t come cheap either. So a lot of stars have to align for that to happen.”

“As far as MJF versus Goldberg specifically, I mean, that’s a huge marquee match in any era. I think there are a lot of wrestling fans that feel that I would have fit in in that era a great deal, especially when you think of the people and mic workers of the time. Goldberg, a bumbling idiot, not a great talker, but an incredible, intense mega-star that I cannot take away from him. And yeah, I mean, I think that that’s a huge box office match.” (quotes courtesy of WrestlingNews.co)
