Goldberg won the Universal Championship at Fastlane
Many fans are unfortunate enough to remember the run of pay-per-views ahead of WrestleMania this year where WWE was attempting to put Goldberg over so that he could go on to be defeated by Brock Lesnar at the biggest event of the year.

This included just his second match in more than a decade when he took on Universal Champion Kevin Owens at Fastlane, where the title managed to change hands thanks to a distraction from Chris Jericho. This was merely weeks after The Festival of Friendship beatdown that Jericho endured at the hands of his former friend Kevin Owens and was his version of revenge. Whilst it was a decent twist it wasn't worth allowing WWE biggest Championship to change hands in a matter of seconds.

Goldberg defeated Kevin Owens in 20 seconds to become Champion and poor Owens was never even given a rematch since Brock was the next one on the list to face the former WCW star.
