Goldberg's Universal Title win against The Fiend Bray Wyatt at WWE Super ShowDown was a controversial one. While it wasn't surprising that the match was short, most WWE fans felt that The Fiend had been wasted after months of build-up and that Goldberg was undeserving of another Universal Title win.

According to Fightful Select, there was a problem with that match. Goldberg didn't want to use the Jackhammer because he was nursing a shoulder injury, but Vince McMahon insisted that he used it to finish the match.

According to Fightful, Goldberg was not comfortable using the Jackhammer on Bray Wyatt during their match in Saudi Arabia last year as he was nursing a shoulder injury. However, the report states that Vince McMahon is the one who insisted on Goldberg using the Jackhammer to win the match against The Fiend.

We hope this isn't true because the Royal Rumble WWE Title match against Goldberg was another example of a Jackhammer that looked uncomfortable to execute. If Goldberg returns, a new finisher might be needed.
