Goldberg confronts Drew McIntyre and The Fiend

#1 Goldberg returns to WWE on RAW Legends Night to challenge Drew McIntyre for the WWE title

Goldberg wasn't announced for the RAW Legends Night episode this past week, and fans had no idea that he was coming back on the red brand. Many had assumed that Goldberg would return to kick off a feud with Roman Reigns, but this rivalry will have to wait for now.

The main event of the show saw Drew McIntyre take on Keith Lee for the WWE title. In the end, McIntyre emerged victorious and retained his belt, but didn't get to celebrate for long.

Goldberg has his eyes on the WWE title

Goldberg came out to a loud ovation and confronted The Scottish Psychopath. He challenged McIntyre for the WWE title at the Royal Rumble 2021 event, but the latter didn't seem too impressed. McIntyre was then shoved by Goldberg, to which he responded with equal might.

If this match becomes official at Royal Rumble 2021, and Goldberg manages to defeat McIntyre, it would be the very first WWE title win of his career. Goldberg will become a five-time World Champion, if he manages to topple McIntyre at the event.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
