Did he die?
he lost to the sleeper(passed out) and they were like, "well thats goldbergs last match" and went to commercial. then they came back and he was in the ring with all his family and he apologized as this is the first time he's ever lost in atlanta and then the show went off mid sentence.

I wonder if they'll use the Goldberg spear to Charles Robinson, as well as Cena's attack on him to set up his retirement. They did that when Tim White retired and had him get attacked during the Triple H vs Jericho Hell in a Cell Match.

I didn't watch it live, I watched it later, but during the live version, after they cut him off, did they go to commercial and then come back with a random video package about Charlotte Flair?

So, when I first watched it, it was after it had aired and I saw before hand that there was going to be a commercial, then a short segment, then another commercial, then a longer segment. I decided to go ahead go to the bathroom and take my bedtime pills during those commercials and completely missed Goldberg's speech. I went a rewatched it, it had the brief speech, during which at the bottom of the screen it displayed "Executive Producers: Paul Levesque and Lee Fitting" followed by the copyright. It cut off after Goldberg thanked the fans in Atlanta. Then there was a commercial followed by a random 2-3 minute video package for Charlotte Flair followed by a random 2-3 minute video package about Bianca Belair. Belair's video package seemed to focus around WrestleMania 37.

They should have made Knight the winner because Rollins couldn't continue, having him hit the BFT on an obviously injured opponent kinda made him look like an asshole.

Are you fucking serious? It’s obvious the end of the match came from Seth/Heymans corner but you blame LA Knight.

Anyway hopefully this isn’t as serious as it looks.

specifically, i hate how they are booking solo as a champion. in the last two weekend has:

-got his ass kicked by fatu
-lost to jimmy uso
-lost to jimmy uso in a tag match
-pinned jimmy uso in a roll up aided by MFT

why give him the US title to make him look weak af?

i also hate jelly roll, of course. drew mcintyre is a world title talent and to see him dicking around with celebrities is annoying.

booking wasn’t necessarily a problem with seth and goldberg as both those matches are pretty much one offs.

I'm not blaming LA Knight, what the fuck are you talking about ? I'm talking about the booking of the ending, regardless of who decided it, having the babyface hit his finisher on a guy that is obviously injured and just waiting to be picked isn't helping anyone. The ref or Heyman should have made Seth forfeit.

You must be new to wrestling because they have pulled the whole "champion gets pinned, sometimes more than once" thing to build up matches multiple times over the last 3 decades. Solo's current character also works for this because he's a chickenshit heel who needs a group to help him win, if he were the enforcer still who didn't speak and just kicked ass, that would make him look weak.
