Goldberg, Keith Lee and Karrion Kross Appear on Raw

Monday’s Raw had quite a few “surprise” appearances, including Goldberg, Keith Lee and Karrion Kross.

Keith Lee

Bobby Lashley came out to the ring and issued an open challenge, and Keith Lee’s music hit.

He came out to a big pop, but unfortunately WWE chose to feed him to Lashley in his first match back.

Lee put up a fight, but Lashley won with a spear.

Lee last wrestled in WWE on February 8. There’s been no public explanation for his absence.


Goldberg

After Lashley beat Lee, Goldberg’s music suddenly hit.

He entered the ring, got in Lashley’s face and said, “I’m next!”

Lashley looked angry, but MVP immediately held him back and told him that they’re not doing this now.

The plan is of course for Lashley to defend the WWE Championship against Goldberg at SummerSlam.


Karrion Kross

Karrion Kross’s Raw debut was perhaps the most absolutely baffling WWE booking decision of the night.

Kross came out with his NXT Championship, but with no Scarlett in sight. He had his regular NXT theme music, but the entrance felt totally flat without Scarlett there and the crowd barely gave him a reaction.

Kross then lost to Jeff Hardy via a rollup (Jeff also put his feet on the ropes for leverage) in about two minutes… WWE then interviewed him in the ring after the match and he said that Jeff Hardy “just made the biggest mistake of his life.”

Just a flabbergasting debut, and he seems doomed on the main roster already.
