Although Goldberg has played down reports he is re-joining WWE, there is a strong chance a match with Brock Lesnar is likely to happen at next month’s Survivor Series from Toronto.
The hype of the rivalry and a rematch between the pair is showing no signs of slowing down with WWE 2K17 as the reference point right now – Lesnar is featured on the cover and Goldberg is a downloadable character in the game which is due to be released next week.
In relation to Goldberg’s appearance on ESPN this past week, Paul Heyman has commented about Goldberg’s comments to Coachman about defeating ‘The Beast’ at WrestleMania XX, offering the former WCW Champion a rematch with his client:
Dear @Goldberg – I respectfully suggest you don’t confuse the fantasy of @WWEgames #WWE2K17 with the reality that is @BrockLesnar!

WWE.com has also featured the tweet beside a recap of Goldberg’s appearance on ESPN, adding further fuel to the fire of a one-off rematch.
