Goldberg Addresses Potentially Facing Ric Flair in Retirement Match

Earlier this month, WWE Hall of Famer Goldberg has officially confirmed that he will have a retirement match in 2025. In light of this, he has now addressed potentially facing Ric Flair in his retirement match.

At the Bad Blood Premium Live Event, things heated up when WWE World Heavyweight Champion GUNTHER confronted Goldberg and this made many fans feel that the WWE Hall of Famer would square off against The Ring General in his final match, but nothing was confirmed.

Goldberg appeared on the Cats Corner Podcast with Ernest “The Cat” Miller. Miller asked Goldberg if he would want to face Ric Flair in Flair’s final match. Goldberg spoke highly about Flair, saying he liked him a lot, but he didn’t want to face Flair after what happened during his last match, adding that he didn’t want Flair to die again.

“I love Ric. I don’t want him to die again. I don’t have a lot left in me, but I’ve got too much for Ric at this point.”

Ric Flair finally got the chance to retire on his own terms as The Nature Boy teamed up with his son-in-law Andrade El Idolo and faced Jay Lethal and Jeff Jarrett on July 31st, 2022. However, Ric Flair suffered a legitimate heart attack during the match, which is why it makes sense Goldberg doesn’t want to face Ric Flair for his retirement match. Therefore, we’ll have to see who Goldberg will face in the end.
