Didn't Love: Goldberg's SummerSlam appearance

SummerSlam's penultimate main event was Bobby Lashley (a heel) defending his WWE Championship against Goldberg (a babyface). When Goldberg made his SummerSlam entrance, some around Allegiant Stadium began chanting "Goldberg," but not as much as some may have thought. However, the way the crowd reacted, one would think Goldberg was the heel and Bobby was the face.

At first, the boos for Goldberg were scattered around the stadium, but they got louder as the match went on. Fans at SummerSlam were booing Goldberg so much that Bobby Lashley started getting cheered. We even heard fans chanting Bobby's name throughout the match.

New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE

Post-match, when Lashley decided to take a steel chair to Goldberg's injured leg, the crowd was still cheering. Goldberg's son jumped into the ring and jumped on Lashley's back, who in turn locked Goldberg's son in the hurt lock. When this happened, the crowd went wild, with even a few sections chanting, "Thank you, Bobby."

If WWE wanted Bobby Lashley to get more heat for attacking Goldberg's son in front of a capacity SummerSlam crowd, it didn't work because a good number of fans in attendance loved every second of it.
