That’s right, that match at Super ShowDown 2019 was actually something that Goldberg wanted for a long time.

Three months after his 2018 WWE Hall of Fame induction, Goldberg told Digital Spy that, along with Roman Reigns, The Undertaker was also on his shortlist of Superstars who he wanted to step into the ring with.

“All I got to say is, it ain’t up to me. Whether it’s Reigns or ‘Taker, and, I don’t know, I’m not gonna say anybody else. Hey, Reigns and ‘Taker are the two guys on my list right now. I mean, obviously for two different reasons, but I’d be honored to get in the ring with either one of them. And I still owe Brock [Lesnar] one, but I’m two-and-one on him, so it’s all good.”

It was revealed during The Undertaker’s ‘Last Ride’ docuseries on the WWE Network that ‘Taker was approached by Triple H about the idea of facing Goldberg at Super ShowDown 2019. He accepted but, as we all know, the match turned out to be memorable for all the wrong reasons.

Goldberg legitimately knocked himself out early on in the match after a botched spear into the ring post. The rest of the first-time-ever encounter, which The Undertaker won following a chokeslam, was full of uncoordinated moves and unfortunate mistakes.
