So yeah, that was something else. Not exactly the way I expected WWE to try and capitalize on Goldberg's awesome return and promo.

There's literally nothing to discuss
The fact he's getting paid apparently six figures per appearance and this is the shit he's showing up for anymore is a spit in the face to the people who show up to work every day for this company.
I'm so sick of Lesnar, I actually want Goldberg to beat him that's how sick of him and this BS I am... he's a complete waste of money and time by the WWE at this point.

I suspect they thought the crowd was going to chant Goldberg louder than they did and when it was obvious it wasn't going as planned, they just ended it abruptly.
Way to totally ruin the build though - that sucked the life out of it.

I just can't believe that this is how they responded to such a positive and cool segment from last week.

Kinda underestimated the home crowd thing a bit, I think.

Someone should be fired for that logic...

They really need to wait until the Royal Rumble for this match, because Goldberg wlll get crapped on in Toronto at Survivor Series. If that does happen, then I think that is a true shame.

If that was indeed what they planned for I agree. So dumb. Maybe they just assumed Heyman could turn the crowd and then called an audible when they decided it wasn't working.

Like seriously, you don't do that shit in Brock's hometown, of course Goldberg ain't gonna be the patron saint he was last week!

It's sometimes amazing how dumb and tone deaf WWE can truly be. I did notice that the segment was very short and was cut off very abruptly.

Probably the most meaningless appearance Lesnar has made since he returned in 2012. I dunno, how about, "BROCK LESNAR IS IN THE ROYAL RUMBLE TO SHOW DOWN WITH REIGNS AGAIN!... Oh wait, they're never in the ring together, Brock's only in for like five minutes, and it's entirely to set up a feud that we wound up cancelling anyway."?

Last week was an emotional moment and a captivating promo. This week was basically dead air.

Somehow it'll be Heyman's fault for not getting Minneapolis to turn on Brock, which is absolute BS since Brock could eat a child during a contract signing and the crowd would still be chanting Suplex City.

The blame should be 100 percent on the head of Old Man Vinny. Everybody always says the WWE is his vision, but it's about time someone lets him know that his vision is severely impaired.

Lesnar should've made fun of the Vikings or how he lives in Canada or something. Why would they boo him if he's in a Vikings-colored shirt? Just have Lesnar be a total bastard. His line where he said he didn't give a shit about Heath's kids was so nasty, yet befitting of the Lesnar character. Don't compare Lesnar to some mythical beast in terms of promos. He's a dumb, jacked up jerk who uses his size and physical ability to bully others and succeed in life (at least in character).
