In one of the main events of SummerSlam 2021, Bobby Lashley defeated WWE Hall Of Famer Goldberg to retain his WWE Championship. The Champion never got a pinfall or submission win as the challenger suffered a leg injury after MVP’s attack (when the referee wasn’t watching) and couldn’t continue as Lashley systematically injured that knee during the match.
Lashley kept on attacking Goldberg after the match with a steel chair in hand. This led Gage, the challenger’s son, to jump on Lashley, trying to make the save. But Lashley put him in the Hurt Lock submission and took him out. MVP then claimed that Lashley didn’t realize that it was Gage who pounced on him or else he would have never attacked him.
That being said, Goldberg and Bobby Lashley will soon duke it out in another matchup and the storyline-making for the match has begun. WWE published a video via their social media handles where the former WCW franchise player sent a stern warning to the reigning WWE Champion saying that he’s coming after him.

Goldberg sent a stern warning to Lashley
Unlike Goldberg’s previous goal of snatching the WWE Championship from Lashley, this time the situation is personal. The veteran is currently scheduled for a knee-surgery after what the All-Mighty has done to him at SummerSlam. Once he recovers, he will come after Lashley for vengeance and the WWE Title won’t matter this time. Rather he will try to rip apart Lashley’s ‘heart from his chest.’

Check out full comments made by Goldberg,
“I have ligament damage and I have a pending knee surgery (after the match with Bobby Lashley), does that answer your question? I really don’t care.
What I do care about is that dirty son of a b*tch Bobby Lashley and what he did to my son at SummerSlam. I just left the house, Gage’s shoulder is all jacked up, his neck hurts. God knows what a guy that size could have done to my son.
So, the objective has changed. I’m not coming for the WWE Championship… I’m coming for Bobby Lashley’s soul and I will rip it straight from his chest.”
There’s still no confirmation from WWE’s part on when Bobby Lashley vs. Goldberg could take place, next. Meanwhile, the latter’s obligations with the WWE, for performing in a couple of matches for a year is already over. That being said, WWE must have worked something out so that the legendary name will compete in one more match, later this year.
