Some major changes could happen if Goldberg becomes Universal Champion
#1 The WWE Universe will automatically make him a heel

Even though the audience loves and respects Goldberg and everything that he has accomplished through the course of his career for over 2 decades, the modern fan is very opinionated about what he or she likes. And even though Goldberg is technically a babyface and The Fiend is a heel, I have a feeling that if Goldberg were to become the new Universal Champion, the audience would subsequently turn on him.
And this turn may not necessarily happen in Saudi Arabia, where the audience is a lot more starved for WWE action, but fans could become very vocal indeed when SmackDown returns to the United States of America. The Fiend may not necessarily be a babyface, but he's got his own loyal contingent who are devoted to following buzzards.

Goldberg does have his fair share of critics too. One of them is NXT Superstar Matt Riddle, and you can check out what he had to say to Sportskeeda's own Gary Cassidy in the video linked above.
Would you like to see them clash someday?
