This will be Goldberg's fourth appearance on the popular CBS show, having previously appeared in episodes One Of Us (season 10), Searching (season 10), Decoy (season 11), and now this one titled Watch Over Me. The episode also guest stars former boxing champion Evander Holyfield as NCIS Special Agent Sutherland. Shane McMahon also appeared on the show twice, playing the role of Steve Evans in episodes titled Searching (season 10) and Answers (season 11).

The show will be headlined by Drew McIntyre vs Randy Orton, with other matches including Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair vs Kabuki Warriors, Kevin Owens, Aleister Black, and Viking Raiders vs Seth Rollins, Murphy, and AOP, and Ricochet and The Street Profits vs The OC already announced.

PAIGE UNDERGOES EMERGENCY SURGERY
- Ronnie Radke, the lead singer of the band Escape the Fate and the boyfriend of WWE Superstar Paige, posted on Twitter that the former Divas champion had to go under emergency surgery yesterday in Sacramento, California. Radke revealed that Paige went under the knife to remove an ovarian cyst and is now recovering in hospital. He canceled the concert in Sacramento after his drummer fell ill to food poisoning but then wrote that even if his drummer wasn't stick, he still would have canceled the show to be next to his girlfriend. "So if you’re mad.. don’t buy another ticket to my show again," he bluntly wrote. Paige was on WWE Backstage this past Tuesday and looked fine so something must have happened over the next two days.
PETER ROSENBERG RETURNS TO WWE
- Radio host and ESPN's Peter Rosenberg is rejoining WWE, a year and a half after he departed the company. In a press release issued today, WWE said that Rosenberg will be joining as an analyst for its monthly pay-per-view kickoff shows beginning this Sunday, March 8 at Elimination Chamber. In his new role, Rosenberg will also serve as a special correspondent for various WWE Network shows and upcoming specials. “To quote Vince McMahon at WrestleMania XII, working with WWE is the boyhood dream come true,” said Rosenberg. “I am beyond thrilled to rejoin the WWE Universe.” Rosenberg last worked for WWE in September 2018, citing personal issues for his departure. He also didn't like it when WrestleMania came to New York and they didn't invite him over, with WWE telling him they have no space. "They couldn’t even squeeze me on that Watch Along show with 80 people talking at the same time. Still didn’t have room for me there. Couldn’t put me anywhere,” Rosenberg said last year.
SMACKDOWN PREVIEW
- Smackdown rolls into Buffalo, New York tonight for the final stop before this Sunday's Elimination Chamber pay-per-view. Two matches being promoted are Lacey Evans and Naomi vs Bayley and Sasha Banks, and all six tag teams in the Elimination Chamber match going against each other with the winners earning the right to enter last in the Chamber match. Apart from those two matches, Bray Wyatt's Firefly Fun House returns tonight a week after The Fiend challenged John Cena to a match at WrestleMania and the nWo will be the guests of Alexa Bliss on her segment A Moment of Bliss.
