Less than 24 hours after obliterating Brock Lesnar in 84 seconds as the two squared off in the main event of Survivor Series, Goldberg appeared on Monday Night Raw and declared that his run with WWE is not over -- it's just getting started.

Though most believed that Goldberg would make a one-off appearance in WWE to promote the WWE 2K17 video game and fight Lesnar before leaving for good, that apparently is no longer the case.

Instead, the 49-year-old Goldberg will continue his run with WWE at the 2017 Royal Rumble as he declared Monday night that he will be the first entrant in the 30-man, over-the-top-rope battle royal.

It was actually ProWrestlingSheet.com that reported late Sunday that Goldberg would remain with the company through its next tentpole pay-per-view.

Whether Goldberg continues beyond that remains to be seen, though he did declare in the ring Monday that his goal is not simply to participate in the Royal Rumble for the second time in his career but actually make a run at a heavyweight championship belt.

"You bet your ass I have one more title run left in me," he screamed. "... At the Royal Rumble match, everyone is next."

The winner of the Royal Rumble, of course, advances to the main event of WrestleMania where he will face the WWE heavyweight champion. Seeing as the company now has two heavyweight titles -- world and universal -- the winner will either have to vie for the title associated with his brand (Raw or SmackDown Live) or have his choice of opponent.

It remains to be seen how this all will play out for Goldberg in WWE, though it is hard to believe that he could beat Lesnar clean in 84 seconds and not wind up fighting him again before his run ends.

Either way, you're about to see more of Goldberg in WWE, which based on fan reactions, is a good thing.

This year's Royal Rumble is set for Jan. 29, 2017, and it will emanate live from the Alamodome in San Antonio.

Correction: The initial version of the story referred to January's event as the 2016 Royal Rumble.
