Dave Meltzer specifically wrote the following about WWE: 'It was confirmed to us the reason this happened is because Paul Levesque made the call to make Gunther vs. Bill Goldberg on 7/12's Saturday Night's Main Event a title match, likely since it was going on the same day as All In Texas.'
He further added, 'Gunther vs. Goldberg was always going to be the retirement match, and it was always going against All in Texas and on NBC, with the idea of maximizing that day with the big match not on Netflix but on free network TV.'
Previously, Goldberg was set to appear on the June 9, 2025, edition of WWE RAW, which emanated live from Atlanta. However, the match was not scheduled despite reports of his appearance.

Hailing from Kollangudi village on the Madurai, Thoondi road, Karuppayi rose to fame with her appearance in the 1985 Tamil film 'Aan Paavam,' directed by Pandiarajan . In the film, she portrayed the role of a grandmother, and her performance with her powerful folk singing, won the hearts of the audience in Tamil Nadu. Her rustic voice and traditional folk songs became popular beyond the silver screen. Folk singer turned actress with a lasting impact After her debut, Karuppayi acted in several notable films including 'Kaabbadi Kabbadi,' 'Gopala Gopala,' and others. Her on-screen appearance brought rural authenticity to mainstream cinema. In 1993, the then Chief Minister Jayalalithaa honored her with the Kalamamani Award in recognition of her contribution to art. Reflecting on her career, Karuppayi once said, 'Aan Paavam was my first film, and I acted in many after that—but those who cheated me outnumbered those who paid me. They'd give me ₹1000 and say they'd send the rest. I'd wait, but nothing would come. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 오스템 임플란트 받아가세요 임플란터 더 알아보기 Undo The only thing I got from the cinema was being sent home with a shaved head.'
