3 Signs Gunther will lose his WWE World Heavyweight Championship to 6ft 4in star
The latest episode of WWE RAW has disclosed the first challenger for Gunther's second world title reign. The Imperium Leader got confronted by a returning Goldberg, who declared a massive match between him and the Ring General for Saturday Night's Main Event next month.
In this bout, the World Heavyweight Championship will be on the line. The WWE Universe has a mixed reaction regarding this showdown. Meanwhile, there are considerable hints that suggest that the Imperium Leader will lose his world title to the 6ft 4in legend.
In this article, we will be looking at the three signs that Gunther will lose his World Heavyweight Championship to Goldberg in their upcoming bout.
#3. Triple H wanted Goldberg vs Gunther to be a world title match
After Jey Uso suffered the title loss last week, reports circulated that Triple H wanted Goldberg vs Gunther to be a world title bout. This is why the Ring General dethroned the YEET Master and became Champion.
Although the rumored reason is to capitalize on the buzz surrounding this showdown against AEW All In: Texas, putting the world title in this match also boosts the possibility of Gunther losing it.
Intentionally, making Gunther vs Goldberg a title match is potentially a sign of Goldberg winning it at the WWE NBC special event.
#2. This is Goldberg's final match in the Stamford-based promotion
Another thing that makes the Gunther vs Goldberg match more interesting is the fact that this will be the final match of the Hall of Fame in the squared circle. The iconic star is one of the most dominant and decorated stars in the history of the company.
Putting him in a world title match in his final ride is seemingly a sign that the company may want to put the Championship on the veteran star. Later, the 57-year-old star may forfeit the title soon on RAW after SNME.
This will give the WWE legend a proper send-off from the Sports entertainment juggernaut.
#1. The record of the veteran in world title matches in WWE
The record of Goldberg in the world title matches is also interesting to look at. Despite the Hall of Fame suffering losses in the past few matches, he still managed to dethrone the Champions in the modern era.
Goldberg is a two-time Universal Champion. He had defeated Kevin Owens at Fastlane 2017 to initiate his first title reign. His second title run started when he defeated The Fiend at WWE Super ShowDown 2020.
All these signs are enough to say that there are realistic chances that Gunther will lose his World Heavyweight Championship to Goldberg at Saturday Night's Main Event.
