Bill Goldberg lost his WWE retirement match against World Heavyweight Champion Gunther at Saturday Night's Main Event on July 12. Gage Goldberg, the wrestling legend's son, recently recalled how his mother Wanda reacted to the show.

Saturday Night's Main Event took place at State Farm Arena in Bill Goldberg's hometown of Atlanta, Georgia. The 58-year-old announced in advance that he planned to retire from in-ring competition after the match. However, he has since opened the door for a possible return to wrestling.

Sportskeeda Wrestling Senior Editor Bill Apter spoke to Gage Goldberg about Saturday Night's Main Event. The 19-year-old only had positive things to say about his father's performance against Gunther. He also revealed that his mother enjoyed the show.

"She thought it was a good match, for sure," Gage said. "She was just glad that dad made it out of the ring. She's always like the super scared type for whenever my dad goes into a WWE match. She's very scared and skeptical." [2:28 – 2:45]

How Gage Goldberg's mother would feel about him wrestling for WWE

Asked how his mother would react to him wrestling, Gage joked that she would be more worried about him than she is when his father competes:

"Whole different story [smiles]. I guarantee you, whole different story." [2:53 – 2:56]
