Why is Bill Goldberg retiring? WWE star says 'I've got a life to live'
Jun 28, 2025 03:13 PM IST WWE champion Bill Goldberg officially announced his retirement from the sport during a recent appearance on an episode of the CarCast podcast. The two-time WWE Universal Champion discussed his journey in the sport and reasons for retirement during the conversation. He is scheduled to compete against Gunther in the upcoming WWE Saturday Night's Main Event in Atlanta- a match that may just prove to be his last. WWE star Bill Goldberg confirmed his retirement. (X) Goldberg cited a desire to lead a more laid back life as reason for calling it quits. 'I've a life to live. I have a family and I have responsibilities. You know there's a lot you got to do at one point. I don't have anyone helping anymore. I've got my agents, but I don't have assistance, and I don't have anybody working under the roof other than myself. It's tough to be able to fit everything in. But there will be a lull after this match. I won't be wrestling anymore,' he said. He even pointed out his stem cell treatment as the reason he was able to return for one last match in the tournament. 'If Bioxcellerator didn't hook me up with the stem cells, I don't think I'd be able to be doing this. So that was something I strategically needed to place at the beginning so I could chill and then slowly get back into training and get my shoulder back, and hopefully get my knee back, and keep my spine aligned. There's a lot that goes into it, and I got to be a human being along the way,' he added. Also Read: WWE star Chad Gable injured ahead of Night of Champions, could miss rest of the year Goldberg first entered the WWE scene in late 1997 and held an undefeated streak for about a year before finally folding to Kevin Nash. With moves like the Spear and the Jackhammer on his side, he has competed against some of the most well-renowned players of the game such as Big Show, "Mr. Perfect" Curt Hennig, Bam Bam Bigelow, Sid Vicious, and Scott Steiner. WWE Saturday Night's Main Event, featuring Goldberg going against Gunther, will be broadcast on July 12 and will be available to view on Peacock. By Stuti Gupta

Islam Makhachev admits improved Jack Della Maddalena is 'going to be a hard fight'
Islam Makhachev not taking UFC welterweight champion Jack Della Maddalena lightly. Standing in Makhachev's pursuit of a second UFC belt is Della Maddalena (18-2 MMA, 8-0 UFC), who outstruck Belal Muhammad to claim the welterweight title at UFC 315 last month. Makhachev (27-1 MMA, 16-1 UFC) acknowledges the Aussie has shown vast improvements in his game. Advertisement "It's going to be a hard fight. Honestly, it's going to be," Makhachev told MMA Junkie. "I saw his fight against Belal. He's good, man. When he began fighting in the UFC, he had problems with wrestling, but now he's improved because I've seen him training a lot with wrestlers and grapplers, and that's why he's champion right now. He's good everywhere. But we will see who's the best fighter in the world very soon." Makhachev was surprised to see Della Maddalena dethrone Muhammad, who he's trained with before on numerous occasions. He was also confused by Muhammad's game plan. "It was crazy," Makhachev said. "I know Belal well. I was training with him many times, and I know his skills. I was surprised how he fought. I was surprised by his fight plan. I think he did mistakes. He had the option, but he didn't use (it). He started to wrestle in the last round, maybe. "You have to wrestle from the first round if you have plan to wrestle because you can make him tired – you're not sweating. I saw: Maddalena has improved a lot because he has really good boxing, and he knows everybody is going to try to take him down, and now he has good defense." Advertisement Many viewed Makhachev as a big lightweight, but the move up to welterweight hasn't been as seamless as expected. "I will try to be big, but it's not easy," Makhachev said. "All my life, I've been cutting weight, but now when I want to be big, my weight stays in the same position. I try to lift more. We do some program and slowly, slowly we bring maybe two kilograms now. It's very hard, but I don't want to be big by eating and not training. I want to be with muscles. I want to train, do right lifting program, and bring some muscles." This article originally appeared on MMA Junkie: Islam Makhachev: Jack Della Maddalena is 'going to be a hard fight'
