WWE WrestleMania 36
Goldberg defeated The Fiend at Super ShowDown to win his second Universal Championship. On the following Smackdown, Roman Reigns challenged him to a title match at WrestleMania 36 and eventually, it was made official.
However, the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic forced WWE to make several changes to WrestleMania to ensure the event goes on as planned. In addition to that, Roman Reigns pulled out of 'The Show of Shows' last week as he is immunocompromised, owing to his past battles with leukemia. WWE respected The Big Dog's decision and decided to replace him as Goldberg's WrestleMania opponent.
As seen of this week's SmackDown, Braun Strowman is the new contender for the WWE Universal Championship and it will be interesting to see if he can dethrone Goldberg at 'The Grandest Stage of Them All'.
