I haven’t really kept up with raw in a while but where is Andrade? Dude is too good to be riding the sidelines ‘Hes been on the sidelines for a while. Not sure if it’s an injury or just a personal holiday or if they just don’t have anything for him.

That C Level "legends" show was about as entertaining as I was expecting. Damn near not at all.
Drew McIntyre - Keith Lee was was really good. That's a big match that they gave to us on Raw with a clean finish. That doesn't happen often.
There were no "legend" segments worth anything. I don't know how many of them are on social media but those who are will be reading some mean things tomorrow.
Where the hell was Alexa Bliss? They have a big angle last week to close the show and this week she's not even there? Randy Orton was all over the place on this show, but the story he's actually involved in vanishes after being the focal point last week?

I would rather watch Randy Orton vs. Drew McIntyre again than Goldberg vs. McIntyre.
When Goldberg came back in 2016 and speared Lesnar and beat him in a 1:16 I believe it was at Survivor Series, that was awesome!
When Goldberg got in the Royal Rumble and eliminated Lesnar and had a stare down with others, that was awesome!
When Goldberg beat Kevin Owens to win the Universal Title for nostalgic memories, that was awesome!
When Goldberg dropped the belt to Lesnar at Wrestlemania and looked like he was leaving the WWE and wrestling for good, that was awesome!
But no, nobody wants Goldberg now, I rather see anyone else on the main roster wrestle Drew before Goldberg.

This company smh lol. Knowing Vince, he doesn’t even realise how embarrassing it is to book some 50+ year old WCW has-been as a main character on a 2021 wrestling show.

She's patiently waiting to confront Randy next week to be a team player and comply with the whole Legend night agenda of the company...just like any unhinged, psychotic girl would do. lol

Lee and Drew was really good. I'm ok with Goldberg coming back as long as Drew comes out of the feud with the title(which I think he will)
We getting closer to Riddle being US champion(I can't wait)

Carlito and Kurt had the right idea no showing. They didn't miss anything besides being in a nothing segment or standing around watching.

They should make Goldberg heel
McIntyre beats him and his bitter old ass attacks him after the match with a spear, then Miz cashes in and wins the title

I didn't get to see this last night, but I am watching the abridged version this morning while "working". I came here specifically to ask: Did anyone else catch IRS glaring a hole through Orton? Now THAT is some continuity!!

It's ing asinine 🤦♂️ I will be severely pissed if Goldberg takes the title off him. It'll be the Fiend x100.

Apparently there were timing issues and Goldberg was sent out prematurely, cutting off McIntyre's promo which would have included something about the legends. So 'Berg was reacting to something which Drew never did.
LOL

I don't watch every bit of Raw, though I usually tune in for a bit each week. I really don't want to see Goldberg over and over leading up to the Rumble, let alone Wrestlemania. He's so one-dimensional in his promos and in his wrestling. He can only do one character, and he's done it for decades. It's a bummer just watching him now.
I mean, last night was Legends night, but did anyone think or hope to see Goldberg despite knowing his Legend status? Was the whole thing set up just to give Vince a reason to reintroduce him?
Talk about taking the shine off. A lackluster Legends night finishes with a good match, only to be canceled by reviving a stale Goldberg angle.

You know if they had Goldberg call out Orton for all the stuff HE was saying about the legends, I'd have been totally cool with it.
Gives Orton something to do while Fiend/Alexa are away and keeps Goldberg the hell away from any title.

Everything is so inorganic, I don’t mind Goldberg having a match or two a year, but he needs to be putting young guys over as well. But man their was no issue for them to have a match, it makes the product confusing and asinine. Like someone else said, Randy would have been a better opponent for Goldberg, Randy can take an L for Goldberg and he can then go to WM or Summerslam and lose himself to put Reigns or McIntyre over. Not to mention his promo then makes sense.
Randy loses to Fiend interference protecting him and we keep Goldberg strong for him to do the job. A child could book more competent crap than Vince.

If they had executed the plan with Drew successfully, they are shading who is supposed to be their top babyface, not mentioning how antithetical it was for his character. Made Goldberg look like a doofus for not being aware of the situation and reciting lines. And in the event Bill was secluded backstage and was rushed out there with little communication, production would be incompetent for not being on the ball.

The Goldberg vs Drew McIntyre feud makes absolutely zero sense to me and looks like it's purely being done to set up the inevitable Goldberg vs Roman Reigns Match, which now looks like it'll be Title v Title. I actually don't think anybody would have had a problem with Goldberg vs Randy Orton. Infact, it actually feels quite fresh on paper, somewhat of a dream match weirdly, and would be perfect for the year Orton has had. Let alone the fact it actually would have made sense with the whole Legend Killer situation. It would also have been a pretty fitting way for Orton to retire Goldberg, and if Goldberg won it wouldn't have been too much of a biggie either, considering Orton is the complete heel here.
I'm struggling to see what benefit having Drew McIntyre vs Goldberg even does. If McIntyre wins, then it seems a bit of a waste of a hotshot usage of Goldberg, and it would definitely diminish any interest in a future Goldberg vs Roman Reigns Match down the line if he's already lost to Drew. On the flip side if he wins, then there's going to be uproar. Booked themselves into a corner again.
I really wouldn't be surprised now, if the plan is actually for Brock Lesnar to go and win the Rumble, and set up Goldberg vs Brock Lesnar vs Roman Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship at Wrestlemania.
