WWE Royal Rumble 2017: 5 Reasons Goldberg Should Not Win

1. Goldberg’s Time is Over
The nostalgia kick of Goldberg’s return is all that that should be. Having starred for WCW in the late 90’s, then in the WWE in the early 2000’s, this is the time for him to now step away from professional wrestling for good.
Goldberg doesn’t need WWE, but has done a lot for the company in the time that he has been back. One thing that he said he wanted was for his son to see him in the wrestling ring, he is too young to have seen his dad perform in the past but has now seen him on the biggest stage that pro wrestling could give him right now.
Whilst it’s been good to see Goldberg back in a WWE ring, after the whole WrestleMania season is over, that should be the end of Goldberg in WWE. With others like Lesnar, The Undertaker, and John Cena there is enough part-timers who offer little to the long term to the company.

The Royal Rumble is a good place to let Goldberg have a few more minutes in the spotlight, before his inevitable clash with Lesnar at ‘Mania. But he should be nowhere near the last few men in the match, let alone be the last man standing. This should be a fun ride, but it needs to end early in the match not late.
