Why Did Gunther Apologize To Goldberg’s Family On WWE RAW
Gunther laid out his intentions for Saturday Night’s Main Event.
Gunther and Goldberg will lock horns at Saturday night’s Main Event after the latter returned to WWE RAW last week. The two will clash for the World Heavyweight Championship in what is rumored to be Da Man’s final match.
On this week’s episode of WWE RAW, a pre-recorded interview of the former WCW Champion was played in which he addressed the upcoming match and what he is returning to wrestling for. Later in the night, Gunther got into the ring and humiliated his next opponent by calling him a one-trick pony again. He went on to apologize to Da Man’s family for the beating and embarrassment he is going to cause to his opponent.

“So Bill, I want to take the moment now and officially apologize to your wife and to your son for everything that I’m gonna do to the man that used to be Goldberg. I’m like anybody you’ve ever stepped in the ring with. I’ve embarrassed you once and at Saturday Night’s Main Event, I’m going to embarrass you again becuase it’s my personal responsibility to make sure the legacy and the myth of Bill Goldberg forever dies.”
WWE’s Ulterior Motive Behind Goldberg Vs. Gunther
Goldberg’s previous match was over three years ago when he faced Roman Reigns at the 2022 Elimination Chamber Match. Since then, the former World Heavyweight Champion has been away from actively getting involved in wrestling until Gunther called him out at Bad Blood last year.
According to former WWE Superstar Stevie Richards, WWE may have booked the match between the two Superstars to get Goldberg’s son, Gage, into the system. Richards expects Gage to run in and make a save while Gunther is destroying Goldberg in the match.
