Goldberg episode of WWE Chronicle to air after Hell in a Cell

Posted on by Joseph Currier

Goldberg will be the subject of the next edition of WWE Chronicle.

WWE Network News reported today that a Chronicle episode on Goldberg will premiere on the WWE Network after Hell in a Cell on Sunday, October 6. Here’s the description for the episode: “WWE Hall of Famer Goldberg reflects on his legendary career as he returns to the ring for matches against The Undertaker and Dolph Ziggler.”

The match against Undertaker was the first time Goldberg had wrestled since 2017. It took place at Super ShowDown in Saudi Arabia this June and fell apart after Goldberg got hurt during the match. He tweeted after it was over: “Knocked myself out and thought I could finish…. love my fans…..but let u down. Everyone else that found ‘pleasure’….. hope ur happy”

Goldberg then faced Ziggler at SummerSlam and got some redemption. After Ziggler hit two superkicks, Goldberg quickly defeated him with the spear and jackhammer. There was then a post-match angle where Ziggler goaded Goldberg and was given two more spears.

Goldberg is advertised to appear on SmackDown’s FOX premiere, which is taking place two days before Hell in a Cell.

The most recent episode of Chronicle debuted earlier this month and focused on Sasha Banks.
