4. Goldberg is Only Here for a Short While

If rumors are to be believed, then Goldberg is only around in WWE until WrestleMania. He’s scheduled for matches at the Royal Rumble, Fastlane in March and then at WrestleMania. There’s a good chance that following ‘Mania that we probably won’t see him again in WWE.

In the world of WWE there’s little point in investing so much in a man who is only sticking around for a few months. Goldberg has, in the short amount of time he’s been back in WWE, proved how much of a draw he is for the company. But his appeal is as little more than a nostalgia act, the appeal will wear off sooner or later. That’s why WWE only have him sticking around for a few months and haven’t signed him to a long contract.

The whole deal is perfect for both parties. Goldberg will be making a decent amount of money for his appearances, and WWE are taking full advantage of the circumstances and making as much money as they can off the back of the former WCW Champion. It’s the perfect example of striking while the iron is hot, this whole scenario won’t last forever, and neither will Goldberg.
