On last week's show, Bill Goldberg was involved in a physical altercation with Braun Strowman. Briefly joining forces with Roman Reigns, the man who destroyed Brock Lesnar at Survivor Series flattened Braun with a Spear. This week on Raw, Goldberg was nowhere to be seen.

It seems the same will be said for next week's program, one that will involve none other than Lesnar himself. Right before the advertised main event pitting Roman Reigns against both Chris Jericho and Kevin Owens, a graphic flashed up on screen telling fans that Brock would be returning to the show in 7 days time.

As always with these graphics, the details weren't displayed on screen for too long. In fact, the announcers didn't do much hype for Lesnar's appearance, merely offering that he would be on the show in some unknown capacity.

It would have been far more exciting had Goldberg also been announced. As things stand, Lesnar will likely let Paul Heyman do the talking. Watching Raw, some may have missed that he was even scheduled.
