WWE superstar Goldberg
Who’s next? Not Goldberg

While Goldberg is fresh and exciting to the WWE Universe at the moment and was even heading into this year's Royal Rumble as one of the potential favourites, it makes perfect sense why Goldberg has never won a title shot at WrestleMania in this fashion (or any, for that matter).

First off, the overwhelming majority of his career was spent not in WWE itself, but in WCW, where the Royal Rumble match doesn't even exist. Anybody who was under that company's banner in January of any year failed to be eligible to win the Royal Rumble no matter how successful they were.

The one and only time Goldberg was around and could have become victorious, he was eliminated by Kurt Angle with a little help from Brock Lesnar. All three are now back in the company, which is funny, meaning many things are coming full circle back to 2004 but in a slightly different way.

This year, Goldberg had a somewhat impressive performance despite only being in the match for under four minutes, but he at least eliminated Lesnar to make them even in that regard.

If all those years missing from WWE could be changed to active roster time, it's almost a certainty that Goldberg would have won at least a single Royal Rumble due to how he's been consistently booked as unstoppable for the entirety of his career, but now that he's on the verge of retirement, it will never happen.
