10 Booking Steps For WWE Raw (Feb 27)
3. Goldberg Warns KO Not To Overlook Chris Jericho's Revenge
Although the chance seems slight, what if WWE do have Brock Lesnar cost Bill Goldberg the chance to become WWE Universal Champion at Fastlane? It'd hardly make sense for Brock to cost himself a shot at the gold come WrestleMania, but then Paul Heyman did intimate that Lesnar will stop at nothing to gain revenge on Goldberg.
Kevin Owens defending against his now-former best friend Chris Jericho is a much more pleasing scenario for the Universal strap at 'Mania; from the off, Y2J claimed he was a co-champion with Owens, so the title has been part of their story for months now.
Moving towards that match as the title bout at the expense of Goldberg vs. Lesnar is something the writing team could do on this week's show.
His usual combination of aggressive energy and rage, the pumped up Goldberg could try to play mind games with KO, saying he should be wary of Jericho's forthcoming retribution.
So, not only does Owens have to worry about Goldberg, the Canadian must realise that his fellow countryman is coming for him sooner rather than later.
