Big E regrets that he never got the opportunity to face Goldberg during their respective careers, three years after Big E’s latest match.
Speaking to IGN to promote WWE 2K25, Big E was asked about who he wishes he’d had the chance to face in the ring. He said,
“I think Goldberg, we’ve had some interactions, but I think it would have been so beautifully and weirdly full circle to get a chance to wrestle my childhood idol. I got a chance to meet him at a signing in the late 90s when I was still a kid. So a chance to wrestle Goldberg would have been very, very cool.”
Goldberg will compete for the final time this year though an opponent has not been publicly confirmed for the WWE Hall of Famer.
Big E has not wrestled for WWE since 2022 due to a neck injury. He has continued to appear for WWE as the host of several media events.
During an episode of The New Day’s “Feel the Power” podcast, Big E hilariously shared that his dream match would be against Goldberg. You can check out the video below.
