Spoiler on major return and Summerslam plans

WWE appears to be pulling out all the stops for fans returning to shows. Fightful has learned that as of Thursday, WWEs plan was for Bill Goldberg to return on Monday's and to set up an eventual match with Bobby Lashley, targeted for Summerslam. Goldberg has a contract set for two matches per year through next year, and this would be his second of 2021.

As always, plans can change.

I understand that Goldberg has a crazy contract stating that he had matches included! But why does he have to be in the title picture?!?! Can’t he just fight someone who could use a push to show they could be a contender for the title? Like someone like Keith Lee (when he is cleared) or AJ or just ANYONE but who ever is not the WWE champ!!

Ha! This might be the most underwhelmed Ive ever been by a scoop.

Best thing to do if Goldberg must be used: Riddle wins MITB, Goldberg beats Lashley with Brock's help setting up a feud there, Riddle cashes in by challenging Goldberg. So he gets his Goldberg match, Lashley doesn't look bad in defeat, and we get Brock/Lashley. Plus Alex implodes on Sour Graps, making for great viewing. We all win!

😿

Hunner Gaskins

Brian The Dean

Mike Harp

Jose Bautista

Big E always wanted to face Goldberg

Kyle

Big E can still cash the MITB contract in on whoever wins if he wins Sunday y'all

Matt Payne

I read this. I saw the number of comments on it. I laughed so hard it took a couple of minutes to catch my breath.

Ruh roh

Lol

Lets just hope the plans subject to change mantra comes into effect. Eh. Jesus Christ!

Randy Peace

NOPE

Mark

I really don't wanna see h wrestle anymore lol. Vince wanna go "All Out" for SummerSlam, he should call Phillip Brooks.

Goldberg beats Bobby Lashley, Big E cashes in on Goldberg. That's the only way I'd be okay with it. Well that or Goldberg puts Lashley over.

Jason Allonby

I mean. He has 2 matches contracted each year so at some point he has to do them. And to put over Lashley isnt the worst thing he can do ever

Andreas Bryhn

Honestly, there are worse matches than Goldberg/Lashley

Ben Dupuis

Judging by just the comments in here it's going be an epic meltdown

Thomas Middaugh

That's why WWE is in the position they are in now. Relying on nostalgia and novelty acts instead of the present acts. I wouldn't even mind the fiend returning or bray Wyatt the cult leader to challenge.

Raul Ortega

Oh lord… pass on this

Michael Coriell

Ah, fuck.

Jason

Getting another part-timer. That's cool I guess.

Sheila Antonio

Urgh

I was hoping for this to be Sonya in the MITB match.

It just doesn’t make sense. Vince still doesn’t know how to book him after 20 years. Just have him smash Elias in 2 minutes and he moves the needle as much as he would wrestling for a title. He just needs to be squashing guys twice a year.

Frankie Aguilera

It will be funny to see Bobby go uber babyface for one night

owen c

This is the one thing I think everyone can agree we dont want.... sigh...

Eric Z

Goldberg wrestled this year?? Really??

David Wikeley

🀦 why do they think this is what the people want? A short match with a 54yo with a very limited skill set.

Garrick Knight

Guess that means no Brock. I was holding out hope for Big E to beat Lashley at summer slam.

HeyBroItsBrad

Well that’s a bummer.

Gannon Barnes

Lol we all thought it was gonna be Big E, like always never hope when it comes to wwe.

Jose

Noooooo!

Joshuah Martin

Oh god no

Jacob Donnelly

Sigh

Jesussss

Non-title I hope...

Jeremy Bennett (JBHuskers)
