Nic Nemeth Thinks Goldberg Shouldn’t Win Against Gunther
– During a recent edition of Busted Open Radio, former WWE Superstar Nic Nemeth discussed Goldberg facing Gunther for the World Heavyweight Championship at Saturday Night’s Main Event next month. He also evaluated the chances of Goldberg winning against Gunther, noting that if Vince McMahon was still in charge, that would raise Goldberg’s chances of winning the bout. Below are some highlights (via WrestlingInc.com):
Nemeth on the chances Goldberg might beat Gunther: “With WWE, you never know if he’s gonna win that title, and if you wanna say like ‘oh, in this era sometimes people are champions for two-three years now,’ well, that title changed two weeks ago, or a week ago whatever it was. You could go one more time real quick and then go back to Gunther and then he has it for five years and you go ‘hey listen, he had these four reigns over fifteen years,’ and you go, ‘Okay, great,’ but there is a genuine chance.”
Nemeth on his prediction for the match: “It’s going to be a four-minute match but it’s going to be drawn out for fifteen or twenty minutes and it should be and it should be a spectacle and the pageantry should be there but I think Gunther wins but in my head there’s always, always a shred of doubt. If Vince [McMahon] was in charge, it’s like sixty-forty (percent change) (Goldberg)’s winning but I don’t know, I don’t know where they’re gonna go, he shouldn’t win.”
The World Heavyweight Title match goes down on Saturday, July 12 at WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event. The event will be held at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia. It will air live on NBC and will be simulcast on Peacock.
