Paul Heyman
Paul Heyman did appear on RAW tonight, and although it was reported he was backstage in Denver, he was announced as appearing live from WWE Studios.
He said Goldberg is not flying to Denver to say no, and he does believe Goldberg will accept Brock Lesnar’s challenge. Heyman says Brock didn’t make the challenge face to face because Brock doesn’t think about Goldberg, and isn’t worth sweating over. He tells Goldberg it’s just a video game, and Goldberg should say no, because if he says yes, he’s just going to piss Brock off. Heyman says Brock is already pissed Goldberg beat him once, and some might think Goldberg can do it again, but Goldberg should take his advice. He tells Goldberg to turn the fight down, saying Goldberg will just get victimized and beaten by the real life Brock Lesnar.

Sami Zayn
Braun Strowman faced three opponents and defeated them rather easily on WWE RAW tonight, then called out Mick Foley for not providing him proper competition. Strowman said he was going to the back and find a worthy opponent, but Sami Zayn came to the ring and got in his face.
Strowman shoved Sami out of the ring before leaving, then Charly Caruso found Sami backstage and asked why he was picking a fight with Strowman. Sami says he picked a fight with Braun Strowman because no one else will, then walked away.
