3 reasons why Goldberg should beat 'The Fiend' Bray Wyatt and 2 reasons why he shouldn't

Goldberg and The Fiend Bray Wyatt clash at WWE Super ShowDown tonight for the Universal Title. The Hall of Famer is set to make his return to Saudi Arabia for the first time since his infamous match against The Undertaker.

The Fiend is yet to lose clean and rumors now suggest that Goldberg could be the one to end the streak. The move could see a mixed reaction from the WWE Universe but it could be the one WWE go with if it makes sense for their future plans for The Fiend, Goldberg and the Universal title.

Here are 3 reasons why Goldberg should beat The Fiend Bray Wyatt and 2 reasons why he shouldn't:

#3 – Why he should: Helps Goldberg get his legacy back

Goldberg had a pay-per-view to forget the last time WWE were in Saudi Arabia. The former Universal Champion was involved in a match against The Undertaker and it will forever be remembered for the wrong reasons.

Goldberg did return to the WWE ring at SummerSlam last year to take on Dolph Ziggler and ended up squashing his opponent. However, when people are talking about the last Goldberg match, it is the infamous match that comes to mind first.

Now, he is set to take on 'The Fiend' Bray Wyatt who is unbeatable. So many Superstars have tried and none have managed to get the better of him. A win for Goldberg would not only put the WWE Universal Title on his waist but would also make him the first-ever Superstar to stop The Fiend.

While the move would be something that the WWE Universal would be against, it would help in sealing his name in history for the right reasons. A win tonight would be enough to all but erase the memory of infamous match against The Undertaker and repolish the Goldberg name.

Why he shouldn't: The Fiend's streak is yet to peak

The Fiend won the WWE Universal Title back at Crown Jewel 2019 and since then, has held the title for 4 months. It has been just 119 days since he won the title and for a monster like him to drop the title so soon would make things difficult for him in the future.

WWE are building him up as an unstoppable force and that is yet to peak. There are a lot of things the company is yet to do with him holding on to the title and thus, it would be a very bad choice to put Goldberg over with a win tonight.

While Goldberg ending the streak is somewhat more reasonable than any of the other challengers so far, he is still a part-timer and that would tarnish The Fiend's powers.

To be completely honest, not only should The Fiend retain the title tonight, he should squash Goldberg. That move would make things even better for The Fiend and it could be the starting point of the WWE Universal champion reaching the peak for his reign.

Why he should win: Helps WWE bring Roman Reigns into the picture without backlash

Rumors suggest that Roman Reigns will be facing Bray Wyatt at WrestleMania 36 for the WWE Universal Title. Moreover, reports suggest that he could be the one to end the unbeaten streak for The Fiend.

While it would be a very good move for the company, the WWE Universe might not like it. There would be instant backlash for putting the title on Reigns again and not get him over with the fans.

Instead, if Roman Reigns wins the title from someone like Goldberg who is a part-timer now, it would help him not only reach the pinnacle of the sport yet again but also put him over with the crowd like he is now.

Goldberg could be the temporary solution for WWE to get Reigns back on top of the mountain but a lot would depend on how the Hall of Famer wins the title from 'The Fiend' Bray Wyatt first.

A squash win is not expected for Goldberg tonight but if at all he is to win, it has to be a grinding win that satisfies the WWE Universe and makes them wonder if Goldberg retired too early.

Why he shouldn't win: 2 Part-Time champions at the same time?

Goldberg winning the title is in no way 'best for business'. He was a great Superstar but is now a part-timer and anything he does would be at the pay-per-views.

We already have one champion who does that in the form of Brock Lesnar and the fans do not like that one bit. While Lesnar has been an 'entertaining' champion, especially at the Royal Rumble, it would be a bad decision to go into WrestleMania with 2 part-timers who are the top champions in the company.

Moreover, reports suggest that Goldberg is not booked for WrestleMania 36 right now. However, Wrestling Observer reported:

Everything is obviously subject to change as Vince McMahon could always decide Goldberg is a better opponent for Reigns for a WrestleMania marquee, but that would also mean ditching plans for months of building Bray Wyatt up for Reigns.

Thus, if Goldberg wins tonight, it would mean that he will drop the title very soon – maybe even at Elimination Chamber in less than 10 days!

Why he should win: A DQ win to show the other side of The Fiend?

There is only one way WWE can help Goldberg and The Fiend in this match – a DQ win for the former Universal Champion. This move would make it seem like The Fiend was not able to beat Goldberg clean while keeping the title on Wyatt.

The win-win situation would bring out the other side of The Fiend that ensures he retains at all costs and not just run away. The ideal way WWE can use this storyline is by using the giant mallet.

Goldberg and The Fiend going neck and neck would see both men making it impossible for the other to win. Just when the Hall of Famer is about to deliver another jackhammer or a spear, Wyatt can take out his mallet from under the ring and use it to get disqualified.

The move could also help in making Goldberg look stronger than ever. He just needs to manage to get up after getting hit by the mallet and that would erase the infamous spot where he hit his head on the ring post last year and got knocked out.
