No one expected what happened less than two minutes after this very moment.

The Superstars of both Raw and SmackDown Live collided on this November night, for brand supremacy in what was the 30th Survivor Series event, since it's inception.
Some eyes were on the battle of the brands, with Team Raw and Team SmackDown Live going head-to-head, as both male and female Superstars took part in a 5-on-5 Traditional Survivor Series match.
However, the big story of the evening was centred around the match that was billed as "fantasy warfare" coming to life. It was the mega rematch between the Beast Incarnate Brock Lesnar, and his long time foe, Goldberg.

As the combatants made their entrances, fans all over the arena were on their feet, anticipating who would strike first in this battle of monsters. Much to the surprise of everyone in attendance, as well as fans watching from all over the world, Goldberg dominated Lesnar, in what looked more like one of his infamous WCW squash matches from the nineties.
Only problem was, this was no jobber he was dominating, in fact, it was the biggest name in the sport today; the ONE in 21 and 1, the Conqueror, Brock Lesnar.
It took all of one minute and twenty-six seconds for Goldberg to pin Lesnar. On a night that was supposed to see an old fashioned, back-and-forth ground and pound brawl, we got a one-sided domination from a guy who hasn't seen action in over a decade.
