It was pretty visible on WWE Raw last night that the Brock Lesnar and Paul Heyman segment did not go exactly as planned, as Paul Heyman was trying hard to get fans to chant “Goldberg”, but they were instead cheering for their hometown star Brock Lesnar, and chanting things like “Goldberg sucks” and “Suplex City.”
Bryan Alvarez noted on Wrestling Observer Radio that Vince McMahon “blew a gasket” backstage over the reaction from the fans and had Lesnar’s music play to end the segment early. It was noted that the segment was scheduled to go longer, put Vince pulled the plug “right in the middle of it.”
