2020 was a glorious year for Drew McIntyre as he won the Royal Rumble and became a two time WWE Champion. McIntyre got over tough title contenders in Randy Orton, AJ Styles, and Keith Lee. Now, Goldberg looks like the next contender for McIntyre’s WWE Championship after what happened at Raw Legends Night.

The ‘Scottish Warrior‘ tweeted an image of him and Goldberg from Raw. He hoped Goldberg enjoyed the moment last night because it is the only push he is going to get; taking a shot at this random push for the WWE Hall of Famer into the title picture. Much to fan approval!

Bryan Alvarez of the Wrestling Observer Radio revealed WWE was short of time and proceeded directly with Goldberg coming out as McIntyre took the microphone and said what he was supposed to say. Supposedly, McIntyre was to throw some shade on the legends, but as he said nothing, the segment made zero sense only with Goldberg talking.
The Observer also reports Goldberg vs McIntyre at the Royal Rumble was finalized two days before Raw. Imagine! One of their best PPVs is in less than a month away, and they’re still unsure about which talent to use against their WWE Champion. Not just that, but they bring Goldberg out of all people. Brock Lesnar would’ve made sense, but Goldberg took the cake.

Goldberg vs Drew McIntyre shouldn’t be anything more than McIntyre squashing Goldberg. Why? Well, that would only cement McIntyre’s dominance and reign as WWE Champion and as a top face of the company. A ruthless, convincing victory would do wonders for Drew!
