Social media has been on fire lately since Goldberg has returned to WWE. He has shaken things up and is now taking on Brock Lesnar at Survivor Series.

There is a huge fan stink that Goldberg is much too old to be back in the ring, and definitely too old to be in suplex heavy matches against Lesnar who is ten years younger. But Goldberg’s age has not held him up yet. It is just a simple case of ‘ring rust.’ But as the commotion dies down, we just want to know one thing: when are Goldberg and Lesnar meeting again on television?
The two behemoths will obviously be meeting on Nov. 20 for Survivor Series, but there could be a good chance we see them on the Raw before on Nov. 14. It is always common to pump up to headliners like this prior to a huge Pay-Per-View match. They are scheduled to appear on that Raw date so it should be a great tee up for Survivor Series.
Goldberg is treating this opportunity like a one-time run. Nothing more. Nothing less. He has nothing to lose. He knows it. We know it. In an interview on Booker T’s podcast Heated Conversations he said he was treating it this way and ready for whatever came after, even if that was him having to move on:
I’m treating it as [a one-shot deal], man. That’s what they offered. That’s what I accepted. If they wanted more, they would have offered more. So I took the offer when it came to a mutual decision, which I believe was mutually positive for everybody involved. Dude, I treat it was such. I have a one-match contract and I’m taking it like the last match of my career.
I genuinely believe we are going to see one of Goldberg’s greatest matches at Survivor Series. Why? The person with nothing to lose always, always has the upper hand. Or in this case, just have an amazing showing. It is refreshing to see an older wrestler be brought back, but with the mindset of ‘one last time.’ It raises the stakes and gets the audience and viewers pumped.
We cannot wait to see him erupt from those sparks again. Does this Halloween Havoc bring back any memories?
