5 reasons why Goldberg returned to face Dolph Ziggler at SummerSlam 2019

#3 Give Ziggler a dream match

Ziggler had called out Goldberg and other WWE legends over the last few weeks

Dolph Ziggler has been one of the most loyal servants in WWE over the last decade or so, producing great matches in the ring, being an ever-present fixture in WWE for over a decade, and always willing to help other wrestlers.

Ziggler, though, over the last year or so, took a break from WWE to pursue his comedy career, which probably signals that he is entering the final phase of his WWE career. The 39-year-old, who returned in May 2019 after a few months away from WWE, could probably transition into a part-time wrestler in WWE in the near future.

The match between Ziggler and Goldberg could be a way to reward Ziggler for being a thorough professional and a "WWE man" through and through, and Goldberg is perhaps someone he wanted to face for a long time.
