WWE Summerslam 2021 has nearly arrived and the event is expected to be nothing short of a blockbuster. 7 Championships are going to be on the line and some of the biggest Superstars of the company, namely – John Cena, Randy Orton, Roman Reigns, Charlotte Flair and Bianca Belair are going to be in action.

With a total of 10 matches announced for the main card – Summerslam might be a longer than usual WWE event as most of the matches are evenly poised. But one of the matches that the WWE Universe is expecting to be a short squash match is for the WWE Championship match.

Current WWE Champion Bobby Lashley will be defending his title against Goldberg at WWE Summerslam 2021. Most of the fans are expecting Goldberg to retain the title, mainly because he is a part-time Superstar and is contracted to perform for 2 matches a year. This would mean that his quota for 2021 for WWE in-ring performances will get over at Summerslam.

But there is a slight possibility that WWE might decide to shock the fans and let Goldberg win the title. After all, WWE has a special liking for putting the title on Goldberg, which became quite evident when he squashed The Fiend, despite him being pushed as an indestructible force!

There will be someone who would be even happier than Goldberg of Goldberg wins the title! That is the Money in the Bank winner Big E. While Roman Reigns is undoubtedly the biggest Champion on the WWE roster currently, Big E had mentioned in 2020 that why he would love to face Goldberg, during a segment from The New Day: Feel The Power podcast.

During a segment of their podcast Big E explained that why he wanted to face Goldberg, and the reason left Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods in splits. “Y’all want a great match? Nah, bum that. I want to see two big men with big chests and big muscles bumping meat. That’s why I’m here, that’s why I watched wrestling as a kid. You want your five-star matches? You want your 30-minute classics? Not me. Big meaty men slapping meat!”

Goldberg didn’t acknowledge this comment earlier but a couple of months back on WWE’s The Bump he discussed an anecdote where he mentioned that why facing Big E would be something different for him.

“I think Big E could bring some stuff out of me that I would want to do just to make Big E proud of me, right? So, the story goes with Big E and I, is that the only match that I ever was late for, or that I missed in WCW coming up, was a match that I called in and told them I couldn’t catch the plane ’cause I was at a signing. And I had to stay until everybody was taken care of. Big E was one of the kids I stayed for. Okay? So I’ll never forget his face,” mentioned Goldberg.

I’ll never forget that day. And the fact that I made a positive impression upon somebody like that who’s been so successful at what they do, it’s an honor and a privilege for me. So, you know, getting in the ring with him would be a different situation. But it’d be really cool in its own right,” he had added.

Now the perfect opportunity is about to arrive. If Goldberg manages to defeat Lashley at WWE Summerslam 2021, Big E could finally get a chance get one of his dream matches!
