I have no problem with Goldberg beating Brock ( I wanted Goldberg to win ).
I do have a problem with how fast the "squash" was.
I expected, y'know, an actual full length match. a battle between the "titans."
If I had bought a ticket to SS, excited in part for the Goldberg/Lesnar match as the main event, I would be super pissed about it lasting less than 2 minutes as a squash match.
I go a completely different way to you. The ultra short match is what makes this match believable for me. I mean, let me qualify that statement- given all the storylines and circumstances coming into the match, I didn't think Goldberg should have necessarily won. I didn't expect him to. But if Goldberg had to win, this was the only way, short of overbooking it, of course.
Brock is the 'regular' wrestler and has the stamina and conditioning to go long. Goldberg hasn't wrestled in 12 years. So, in shoot fighting terms, the longer it goes, the more it becomes unbelievable that Goldberg can pull it off.
The story they told was that Brock went in underestimating his opponent and was suckered into Goldberg's heavy moves. And before he knew what hit him, the match was over.
If this becomes a normal length match, Brock gathers himself, comes back into the match as Goldberg's conditioning fails. I probably would cry ******** if Goldberg won in that scenario because then, your full time talent who couldn't beat Brock is well and truly buried.
Lesnar's last clean loss was at Wrestlemania XX against...Bill Goldberg!

Kona Reeves? This guy has a new name every time he show up on NXT. He was previously called Noah Kekoa and Noah Potjes.
Gargano and Ciampa have the realest bromance in the WWE. Sorry Chris and Kevin.

There's a rumor going around that WWE is planning a match between AJ Styles and the UT at the Royal Rumble. IDK how i feel about that but who knows.
