Brock Lesnar and Bill Goldberg's rivalry throughout late 2016/early 2017 was way better than it had any right to be.

From Goldberg's shock victory at Survivor Series 2016 to their full-on war at WrestleMania 33, this storyline had fans gripped from start to finish.

Goldberg captured the Universal Championship from Kevin Owens a month before 'Mania, adding yet another wrinkle to his feud with Brock. Lesnar had been away from the world title picture in WWE for around two years at this time, so the thought of The Beast being world champion once again was definitely an interesting one.

This match only went 4 minutes and 45 seconds, but that did not hamper it whatsoever. Both men unleashed on each other: big move after big move, high spot after high spot, keeping fans on the edge of their seat until Lesnar hit the F5 and became the new champion.

Obviously, Goldberg wasn't going to be involved in a lengthy match - he was 51-years-old, for Christ's sake - and this was a genius way to work around that.

If this match had gone much longer, it wouldn't have been nearly as good. Hats off to the road agent who came up with this.
