1) Big WWE Title Match Planned For Summerslam

According to Sean Ross Sapp on Fightful Select (subscribe here), WWE is planning Goldberg vs Bobby Lashley for Summerslam. Goldberg is expected to return as early as Monday night to set the match into motion.

Here is what Sapp wrote:

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.

My Take:

  • I am not excited about this. I do not want to see any more Goldberg matches at his age. He is a legend but his matches don’t get me excited anymore.
