It took one match, but I'm already sick of the way they're booking this 50 year old hasbeen who was already bald and grey in his heyday as an unstoppable monster. The worst part was the combination with Succotash (who I also want gone) and them spearing the hottest new monster heel Braun. Yes, it took two overbooked shitty wrestlers to take him down but still I am pissed. Oldberg should be used to put Strowman over and then f*** off into retirement where his old ass belongs.

Didn't care for him in the past 18 years, so yeah...
Besides his return promo in October, none of his appearances/segments were worthwile. Gimme Cesaro, gimme Sami, gimme Rollins, ignore Oldberg

It was especially hard to suspend disbelief and think of Oldberg as some kind of badass when he was trying to intimidate CHRIS JERICHO of all people. Let that sink: A small guy he couldn't beat in his very prime...and we are supposed to think that this old fart is better than Brock f***ing Lesnar? Sorry, it was a genuine "holy shit!" moment, but it's turning into some really bad kind of "LOLWWE!" the more you think about it and the more he appears on TV.

No, I was a fan of his then and now, so I don't have a problem with Goldberg out there.

I'm not, but last night really reminded me why everyone so quickly got sick of him in 2003-04. His whole gimmick doesn't seem to work in WWE style. Too much talking. Too many staredowns. Goldberg worked best in WCW. When he would talk, he'd be alone. When he'd come out there when other people were there, the adversaries had two options: run or get their asses beat. But since WWE's entire booking of Raw seems to be to create cool staredowns for video packages and WWE.com photos, it doesn't really work.

I'm still yet to understand the hype about his return and stupid win over Lesnar

Childish nicknames aside. Neve watched Goldberg , I was never impressed by clips I saw. So I don't care.just more reasons to skip RAW

I didn't mind Goldberg vs. Lesnar. I probably won't mind him in the Rumble; he's just there to do a spot or two and be eliminated by/eliminate Lesnar to build towards their Wrestlemania match, so as long as that's the case and he doesn't win or stay in too long, that's fine. Past Wrestlemania if he's still around and booked like this, it'll start to get old.

I don't mind him been there since his feuding with Brock. Laying out Braun though was utterly pointless. Why? Couldn't they have just ended with Reigns and Goldberg staring each other down?
Or better yet, have Reigns not appear at all and have Heyman provoke Goldberg and eat a spear?

This is the most I've ever enjoyed Goldberg.

But how can you expect anyone to stand up next to front-facelock master Chris Jericho? He does yoga now he's practically unstoppable. |

It might just be me but Goldberg taking longer to get up from spearing Strowman with Reigns sort of further took the glow off his character. That looked bad.

What makes it worse for me is that the super protected booking he's getting should have went to Sting, who deserved it more.
