Report: Goldberg returning to WWE Raw on Monday

Posted: Jul 16th 2021 By: Ethan Renner

WWE's first episode of Raw back in front of fans could have a major star return, according to a report.

Fightful Select reports that as of today, Goldberg is scheduled to return to WWE Raw on Monday's episode at the American Airlines Center in Dallas, Texas.

The Fightful report also states that WWE's current plan is to have Goldberg face Bobby Lashley for the WWE Championship at SummerSlam on Saturday, August 21 at Allegiant Stadium in Nevada. The report also states that Goldberg's WWE contract runs through 2022 and calls for two matches per year.

Goldberg's last WWE appearance came at Royal Rumble 2021 on January 31. He challenged Drew McIntyre for the WWE title on that show in a losing effort.

Goldberg wrestled twice in 2020, defeating The Fiend for the Universal title at Super ShowDown in Saudi Arabia in February, then dropping the title to Braun Strowman on night one of WrestleMania 36.

Goldberg also wrestled twice in 2019. He lost to The Undertaker at Super ShowDown in Saudi Arabia in June, then defeated Dolph Ziggler at SummerSlam in Toronto.
