The craze for the wrestler witnessed a new high. Fans demanded more matches of their favourite wrestler. They demanded to wrestle John Cena against their wrestler but unfortunately that never happened.  

The year 2019 witnessed the tussle of The Deadman against Goldberg. At the end of the match, both Superstars came out looking bad.
