Goldberg Feels His Character Deserves A Proper Send-Off, Considering Promoting A Four-City Farewell Tour

Goldberg might not be ready to hang up his boots just yet.

The WWE Hall of Famer's last match to date was with Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns at Elimination Chamber 2022, which he lost via referee's decision. 

Last month, it was confirmed that the 56-year-old's WWE deal had expired, making him a free agent. 

The former WCW World Heavyweight Champion may use that free agency to put on a farewell tour, alleging that a handshake agreement between him and Vince McMahon about getting a proper retirement match was not honoured. 

Speaking with 93.7 The Ticket, Goldberg said: 

"I'll stop the rumour mill right now. The reason why these rumors are out there is because Vince McMahon and I had a handshake understanding that after the Roman Reigns match, I would have a proper retirement match and that hasn't come to fruition through them so therefore, you know, nobody puts a stamp on my career, nobody tells me when I'm done, period, end of story and when somebody tells me that, I kind of like to fight against it, I like to do things my own way and I go out my own way and I surely don't go out, you know, under Roman Reigns three weeks after I have COVID and agreed to a match so, if I go on a world tour and promote it myself, that's a possibility. Hey, I'm a businessman and I'm fortunately in the position I firmly believe to where I can still make it happen so, at the end of the day, like I said, I do believe that my character deserves a proper send-off and until that happens, I don't believe I'm hanging 'em up. So, anything and everything is an option and like I say, I'm very much leaning towards promoting it myself and doing a four-city world tour so, let the rumor mill start up after that".

He added that there were a 'plethora of people' that he wants to work with on the proposed tour.
