This is interesting:
Another source says that @Goldberg vs @BrockLesnar is a done deal and that it will likely go down at #SurvivorSeries. If true, bravo @wwe

This comes after reports started making the rounds today that Goldberg is in deep negotiations with WWE and his return is closer than ever. It’s also one day before he’s scheduled to appear on ESPN Sportscenter to address his status with the company.
For whatever it’s worth, he went cryptic in his response at first:
Reading the Internet.... you never know who to believe do you? #WhosNext

And then said he just had knee surgery:
Correction ......double knee surgeryRT @REALANTOINEFAIR: @JRsBBQ he just had knee surgery jim

That doesn’t rule out a match at Survivor Series, of course, which is scheduled for Nov. 20 in Toronto. It also doesn’t mean he’s not returning, which seems like a given at this point. It also also doesn’t rule out yet another match with Lesnar, because who else would he wrestle if he came back for one more match?
