Its a tough call.
The way I see it, Goldberg is gaining momentum as the (somewhat) dominant babyface champion. So from that standpoint there seems no point in taking the title from him.
The other point is that they are planning on doing Goldberg vs Lesnar at Mania, the problem is nobody seems to know whether this will be champion vs champion, a unification match, or if one or both guys will lose lose their respective titles before Mania. I dont know the plan, so as a result its hard to say what to do with Goldberg.
My thinking is that at least Goldberg should keep the title until Mania, and then drop the title to Lesnar, maybe forcing Lesnar (as the now RAW champion) to go over to RAW.
I could see throwing the World title on Kane, which would lead to Taker getting the World title upon his return at Mania, which would give him one last shot at being a World Champion.
They could also give it back to HHH, which would lead to HHH vs Orton for the World title. This also makes sense, but is it too soon for Orton to be going after much less winning the World title? Most would probably say yes.
Problem with both those scenarios is that you have Goldberg doing another JOB, and I think that would take away from a potential match with Lesnar at Mania.
Personally, I like Goldberg as champ, and I think it would be very effective if he went into Mania without having done a JOB on TV at least in a one-on-one match. And again, this is just my opinion, not what I think will happen, but I think it would smart to have a Unified Champion coming out of Mania, which of course would be Brock Lesnar.
