It's been just over a day since WWE Super ShowDown 2020 and the WWE Universe was understandably outraged by the decision of having The Fiend lose to Goldberg clean - especially to a weak jackhammer and even weaker spears.

The thought process was that it's history repeating itself - with Wyatt working hard and gaining incredible traction at WrestleMania season, only to have his legs cut from underneath him for a superstar who didn't deserve it (and we will echo the opinion that Goldberg did not deserve to win the Universal Championship).

However, recoveries are possible. People thought that Goldberg's career was over after his legendary undefeated streak ended in 1998 - but he's still milking his marketability for all it's worth 22 years on.

The Fiend should be fine as long as these Goldberg-like scenarios don't happen and a victory over John Cena at WrestleMania 36 would mean that he could instantly regain his momentum back. However, he shouldn't be pursuing the Universal Championship immediately after WrestleMania.
