Big E winning the WWE Champion clears the way for WWE to book a rematch between Goldberg and Bobby Lashley. At SummerSlam 2021, Bobby Lashley defended the WWE title against Goldberg.

The match went on a bit longer than expected, and it ended in controversy as MVP hit Goldberg's leg with his cane. As Lashley capitalized on Goldberg's injury, it worsened and the referee was forced to stop the contest, awarding the win to Lashley.

Recently, WWE put out a video on social media interviewing Goldberg, who was recovering from his injury at SummerSlam. Since Bobby Lashley also attacked his son Gage, the rivalry became personal.

Goldberg then announced that he didn't want the WWE title but wanted Bobby Lashley instead. Thanks to Big E, he will eventually get what he wants. Reports have emerged stating that WWE is planning a Goldberg vs Bobby Lashley match for Crown Jewel in Saudi Arabia.

Big E's WWE title win means they can now proceed with the match without a title on the line. This makes it easier for Goldberg to get his win back over 'The Almighty one.'

Unfortunately for Bobby Lashley, his loss to Big E might be the first in a string of defeats.
