Goldberg returned to WWE TV in early 2019 and went on to compete with The Undertaker at Super ShowDown in Saudi Arabia. The match, as many are well aware, was full of botches. Goldberg was heavily criticized for his performance in the match, and WWE received tons of flak for putting the duo's health at risk by putting them in a match against each other. In a disturbing visual, Goldberg could be seen collapsing outside the ring after the match.

Goldberg made several more appearances following WWE Super ShowDown

Goldberg didn't suffer any consequences following the botch-filled affair and was instead given bigger and better opportunities in his latter runs. He was given a squash against Dolph Ziggler at SummerSlam 2019 as a way to compensate for the WWE Super ShowDown failure.

In early 2020, Goldberg squashed The Fiend in Saudi Arabia to win his second Universal title. The WCW icon is all set to challenge Drew McIntyre for the WWE Championship at Royal Rumble 2021, and many believe that he will come out victorious when all is said and done at the PPV.
