Thanks for the spoilers JR.

Doesn't make sense to do that at Survivor Series

@Droford

Why?

Ugh. Goldberg was mediocre in WWE 13 years ago. Not sure time is going to be on his side.

13 years?

Initiate mid life crisis.

7 weeks from now but Survivor Series is only 3 weeks after HIAC and Brock is a Raw talent. Setting that match up now overshadows HIAC waiting til after doesn't give them enough time for build-up.

What Id do is have Goldberg surprise in the Rumble and have Brock eliminate him Setting up match at WM plenty of time for build.

Happy 33,333 post to @Droford!

I think your idea is good but keep in mind they announced (randomly) Orton vs Lesnar way in advance as well and it worked fine for them.

You can have it start to build to now and have them physically interact at HIAC then go continue from there.

Question is who goes over? Is Goldberg gonna come back just to give Brock his win back?

Brock and Goldberg should be team captains for a 5 on 5 elimination match.

Brock
Rusev
Stroman
Gallows & Anderson

Vs

Goldberg
Reigns
Someone in a feud with Stroman? Big Show?
Enzo and Cass

LOL @ assuming Brock wants to tag with anyone . The guy is a massive ass hole

They should have him team with someone at Survivor Series. They need to do something different with him. Don't get me wrong, I love watching Lesnar toss people around, but he's been doing the same thing since he beat the streak, and honestly since he came back in 2011. He's only been involved in singles matches, triple threats, and rumbles. Let him do something different. You can put over that he doesn't wanna work with anyone in the match if you really want to, but it'd certainly be more interesting than what they've had him do lately.

Also, why is Jim Ross spoiling possible future WWE main events?

And since we're on the topic of Jim Ross, I really don't like his podcast. He just comes off as out of touch.

Another question, this match SUCKED in 2004... at the biggest show of the year... why do people want to see it in 2016? I get that they aren't in the same situations as they were then but do we really expect anything different than what we got at WrestleMania 20?

On the other hand, I'd LOVE to see Goldberg vs. John Cena.

Triple threat with Gillberg or we riot.

Well Brock has seemed to have forgotten all his move set since than

Goldberg's back.

Gotta sell that video game.

tbf Goldberg still looks ripped af

I have 0 interest in that natch. But honestly, I have 0 interest in most matches involving Brock anymore. Goldberg makes it worse.

I guess after thinking about it I wouldn't mind Goldberg mixing it up with the stars of this generation.
He could start at Survivor Series vs. John Cena for #1 contender for WWE Title.
He'd win and face AJ Styles in a TLC match at TLC and put AJ over as a dominant force.
At the Royal Rumble he'd have a battle of the spears with Roman Reigns which he would win.
Later that night he would enter in the middle and clean house until RHYNO would come in and spear him. He'd eliminate Goldberg.
At Fast Lane I'd have Goldberg face Rhyno in a battle of the spear vs. the gore. Rhyno can win before going on to challenge AJ Styles for the WWE Title at WrestleMania.
Goldberg would move on to a violent feud with Dean Ambrose.
Goldberg would win at Mania, and lose to Dean Ambrose at the next PPV. Daniel Bryan would be upset with him and send him over to Raw.
On Raw: he would feud with Seth Rollins and have a match with him at the May PPV where he would put Seth over.
Then you could have him in a match with Cesaro at Extreme Rules.
He'd be in the MITB Ladder match which he would win.
Then at SummerSlam he would face Shinsuke Nakamura and put him over.
At the end of the PPV he would cash in his briefcase on the champion, Big E, and win.
He'd feud with him for a few PPV's and put him over.
Then a year from his return he could face Kevin Owens for the #1 contender and put him over.
At this point he'd be upset, and challenge Sami Zayn to one last match, if he can't win this one he's done.
He'd put Sami Zayn over in his last match in the company.

Take out the part about Rhyno fighting AJ at Mania. You didn't say it, but I'm assuming he puts Cesaro over, which is good. However I would deviate at having Big E be the champion. That's when you have him versus Brock at Survivor Series 2017. Brock beats either Balor or Rollins for the title at the previous PPV. A rematch is set for survivor series. Right when the bell rings, Goldberg comes out and cashes in to join the match for it's entirety. They beat the shit out of each other and put over either Balor or Rollins, whoever it is. Then have him and Brock be gone for awhile with injuries sustained, and rematch at Mania 2018. Brock goes over. Goldberg goes on to a final feud where he puts over Dolph Ziggler and rides off into the sunset.

Goldberg is on ESPN tonight with an announcement and/or challenge

I'd rather see the match at Survivor Series than WrestleMania. It'd coincide with the release of the video game. They can also trial Goldberg in one of the smarkier cities and see how it works for him. It's very easy to imagine Shane putting Goldie forward as an opponent for Brock given that F5 he took, but they'll probably just announce the match.

...And JR is out of touch?

If you'd like to see Rhyno in the main event of WrestleMania and Goldberg win Money in the Bank, I've got a nice little company called "TNA" I'd like to sell you. I mean, Renee Young winning the Royal Rumble is one thing, but...

I don't see how this can end well:

Brock wins and dominates Goldberg, makes Goldberg look like shit in a match that can't go more than 5 minutes

Goldberg wins: A One-off old returning star defeats the best-booked star of the past 5 years just to get over a video game..... Randy Orton, Seth Rollins, John Cena, The Undertaker, Roman Reigns, etc. cannot beat "The Beast," but Goldberg can....

Not just Rhyno, but Rhyno and The Phenomenal AJ Styles!!!!!!!!!!

They deviate to go to the obvious money match, Mr. Fives: Shane McMahon helps Goldberg win.

Sorry, I didn't read it properly.

Goldberg is apparently going to be on ESPN tonight with a major announcement about his WWE future!

-wrestlezone,various sites

What time?

Not sure - it will be on the ESPN Off The Record segment on SportsCenter according to WrestlingInc.com

To be honest, I don't even care anymore.

Just at least be better than the previous trainwreck.

I remember attending a WCW PPV in Toronto where the fans totally pooped all over Goldberg.

9 eastern

Goldberg was the drizzling shits in anything that wasn't a 2 minute squash, and that was in his prime. Meanwhile, Lesnar doesn't give a shit anymore, so Goldberg's 4 moves actually trump Lesnar's 2.

So yeah...not terribly hyped about any of this.
