It’s a sad sight to see legends retire. Brock Lesnar is reportedly going to hang up his boots. If Brock Lesnar’s WWE career could be encapsulated in two words, it would be utter domination. Right from his debut, Brock Lesnar was pushed as a main event talent who rubbed shoulders with well-established wrestlers namely, The Undertaker, Triple H, The Rock, and more. At the young age of 25, Brock Lesnar defeated The Rock and claimed the WWE Champion for the first time in his career.
Although Lesnar did not continue his career with WWE for long, he returned to the promotion in 2012 with the same bravado as before. Now it seems that his wrestling career is inching toward its end, as a new report notes that Brock Lesnar was seen saying goodbye to his co-workers on Monday Night Raw this past week.
Brock Lesnar is seemingly “finishing up” with WWE
It was previously reported that Brock Lesnar’s contract with WWE was due to expire after WrestleMania in mid-April. WWE reportedly had also offered to renew his contract. According to PWInsider, Brock Lesnar said goodbye to his friends backstage on Raw and also stated that he’s “finishing up”.
It’s important to note that Brock Lesnar may not wish to continue with his career due to the impending sale of WWE. Lesnar and McMahon share a very close relationship. Back when McMahon announced his retirement in 2022, it did not sit well with the former WWE Champion, as he left the building disgruntled.
Since McMahon intends to facilitate the sale of the promotion and ride off into the sunset, Brock finds no reason in staying. However, at this point, reports are mere speculations. If Lesnar does leave, WrestleMania 39 will most likely be his final match in WWE.
Brock Lesnar will face Omos at WrestleMania 39
Brock Lesnar accepted MVP’s challenge on Raw to go toe-to-toe with the Nigerian Giant, Omos, at the grandest stage. The match was seemingly booked at the behest of Vince McMahon.
Ironically, Brock Lesnar said his first goodbye to WWE after his WrestleMania match against Goldberg in 2004 at WrestleMania 20. If WrestleMania 39 is indeed the end of his career in WWE, it will be at the show of shows.
