Lashley, along with MVP, opened this week’s episode of Monday Night RAW. Goldberg then came out to once again challenge the WWE Champion. He told Lashley that he was next before leaving the ring.
MVP then got in the face of Goldberg’s son at ringside telling him that Lashley was going to end his father’s career.
This prompted Goldberg to come back and nail MVP with a spear as Lashley watched on from the ring.
