Family Connection Makes This WWE Return Different for Bill Goldberg

Bill Goldberg is back in WWE, challenging Bobby Lashley for the WWE title on Saturday at SummerSlam.

This match is unlikely to deviate from the structure that the overwhelming majority of Goldberg matches follow. It will be built around physicality, with high spots and power moves exchanged before the finish occurs six to eight minutes after the bell rings. But there is more at stake in this match than a title or the workrate inside the ring.

For Lashley, this is a long-awaited opportunity. Beating a star like Goldberg does nothing but help his current star power and overall legacy, especially as he continues to add to his first world title run in WWE.
