As great and as unique as The Fiend was, one cannot dispute the fact that Roman Reigns and Goldberg are just names that the mainstream world knows better. WrestleMania is a time when a lot of fans who don't watch for the rest of the year come out of the woodwork, and the company needs a marquee match pitting Superstars that the audience knows against one another to make it a commercial success.

Roman Reigns vs. Goldberg is a generation vs. generation match as Corey Graves so aptly described it on WWE SmackDown this week. Lapsed fans who haven't watched in years will now have a hook to watch the show once again because their favorite Goldberg is returning for yet another match with today's biggest star, who happens to be today's biggest dog too.
