Farewell Match Confirmed, but Details Remain Unclear

Goldberg is gearing up for his retirement match in 2025, prioritizing health and recovery in the process. While the date and opponent remain unconfirmed, he recently shared that the match is set for this summer.
Back in November 2024, Goldberg appeared on ESPN’s College GameDay and confirmed that his farewell match would take place in WWE. Since then, he has undergone stem cell treatment, a procedure he prepared for by making significant lifestyle changes, including eliminating tobacco use and poor dietary choices.
Speaking on his CarCast podcast, Goldberg revealed that while the treatment was successful, he is currently in a three week recovery period during which he cannot lift weights. “I feel like a trillion bucks. Whether it’s from the stuff that I altered in my life prior or the stem cell treatment after a day, I feel like a million bucks, comparatively,” Goldberg stated.

I don’t know exactly when it is, but I know it’s coming up, and I know at 58 years old, I have to be in my underwear in front of everybody, and I hold a very high standard for myself”
“I need to get to work yesterday. The long term benefit and the benefit for me in the ring will be much more if I just calm my ass down.”
