WWE Championship Match Official For SummerSlam
Goldberg says age is nothing but a number.
Monday Night Raw on Monday, August 2 opened up with Bobby Lashley and MVP addressing the recent challenge from Bill Goldberg for a match at WWE SummerSlam.
MVP would hype up the champion saying that he’s dominant, he is Unstoppable, and he is an animal. This would quickly bring out Bill Goldberg who said it doesn’t matter if he’s 55 years old and it wouldn’t matter if he was 105 years old, Goldberg is still Goldberg, and that is why he will be facing the WWE Champion at SummerSlam.
Goldberg would leave the ring and this would prompt MVP and Bobby Lashley to verbally berate Goldberg’s son who was sitting in the front row. MVP would tell Gage that Bobby Lashley is going to end his father’s career and this would prompt Goldberg to come running down the aisle and deliver a Spear to MVP.
