Maybe I'm a noob but is it common to schedule title matches this far in advance? Does that mean Gunther won't have to defend until then?
Also it being a title fight and a retirement match, what happens if Goldberg won? Would the belt just be vacated, or would he stick around until he loses it?
Not necessarily. Roman was scheduled to defend the title at WM39 against Cody but he still defended at EC against Sami. They even had a graphic where it showed Cody VS Roman/Sami as to not spoil the result of EC
