Brock Lesnar Issues WrestleMania 33 Challenge To Goldberg During WWE RAW
The widely expected match is one step closer to reality.
Just 24 hours after being eliminated by Bill Goldberg at the Royal Rumble, Brock Lesnar and Paul Heyman made an appearance during Monday Night RAW to issue a WrestleMania challenge.
Brock and Heyman were shown making a surprise entrance backstage and immediately entered the arena. Heyman got on the microphone and spoke about how Brock has defeated all kinds of legends during his run with WWE, specifically mentioning The Undertaker and Kurt Angle.
However, Heyman alluded to the fact that it's starting to get under the skin of Lesnar that now all of the praise for him ends with the saying "yeah but, Goldberg."

Heyman issued the challenge for WrestleMania where Brock and Goldberg can wrestle one final time. The two of them pointed at the WrestleMania sign hanging from the rafters. Making this challenge all the more interesting is the fact that reports are circulating that the bout may end up being for the WWE Universal Championship.
Brock Lesnar and Bill Goldberg wrestled at WrestleMania XX 13 years ago at Madison Square Garden, a match that is widely seen as being one of the more disappointing matches in WrestleMania history. Going into that bout, it was well known among wrestling fans that both men were on their way out of the company, leading to many negative chants from the crowd. Will this time be different?
