ROMAN REIGNS has been labelled a “joke” by WWE Hall of Famer Goldberg.

The two men were set to battle for the Universal Title back at WrestleMania 36 in April.

Reigns pulled out of that clash due to health fears following the outbreak of the coronavirus.

Braun Strowman replaced him and went on to win the belt from the veteran.

However, it seems Goldberg is still keen to get it on with Reigns after a recent interview with American Monster Productions.

During the build-up to their scheduled match earlier in the year, the Big Dog had mocked the WCW legend over his trademark door headbutting during his ring entrance, something that caused Goldberg to cut himself and bleed while delivering a promo in January.

Now he has responded to that ribbing.

He said: “Roman, you're a joke, first of all.

“Second of all, when he ragged on me about headbutting the doors and stuff, you know, I never really explained my whole thought process on that.

“For you guys to get the character that you got, I had to do certain things. 

“Well, one of them was headbutt the door. Right? 

“And that may, on the outside, look like a stupid move, but as I mentioned, we all weigh the positives and negatives, so it's very positive to make it as violent as humanly possible, and as real as humanly possible, and all the negative is you lose a little blood and hey, man, you get another concussion and cut a week off your life.”

It remains unclear whether the two stars will get the chance to go toe-to-toe inside the squared-circle.

Reigns still remains absent from WWE TV and has not been scheduled to return.

Goldberg has not appeared since his loss to Strowman back in spring.
