As the global juggernaut of sports entertainment, WWE prepares to land on its latest premium live event destination i.e., Extreme Rules taking place at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in less than 4 days. The next premium live event is WWE Crown Jewel 2022 and there is a question in the minds of the fans on whether Goldberg will wrestle on the show.
With a stacked Extreme Rules match card making its debut in the month of October for the first time in the pay-per-view’s history, it is expected to be one of the most exciting Extreme Rules events of all time under the regime overlooked by WWE Chief Content Officer Triple H.
The one night of no rules and regulations may be just on the horizon, but WWE has made some of their creative plans known to the audience with the next major show in the pipeline, WWE Crown Jewel set to take place on November 5 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia in a venue to be announced.
We already know that the highly unexpected, yet blockbuster main event was announced for the event with the Tribal Chief Roman Reigns set to defend his Undisputed WWE Universal Title against the YouTube star Logan Paul.

Early reports had suggested that WWE Hall of Famer Goldberg and the Beast Incarnate Brock Lesnar were also slated to make their return and compete at the Saudi show, with Goldberg rumored to battle a young and upcoming talent on the main roster like Veer Mahaan or Omos.
Lesnar was reportedly set to re-ignite his rivalry with The Almighty Bobby Lashley in a clash of the titans for the second time. However, a new report suggests a minor change of plans for the moment.

According to a new report by Ringside News, Brock Lesnar is still scheduled to compete at WWE Crown Jewel, but the same can’t be said for Goldberg who has been rumored to be not working at the event. It is still unclear at the moment in regard to his status for the event, but a big payday might be an attraction for the dominant Goldberg to rise up once again on the big stage.
