As previously reported, Vince McMahon, at the age of 77, announced his retirement from the WWE just a few hours prior to this past Friday's WWE SmackDown episode going on the air. Brock Lesnar reportedly walked out of the show shortly following the news breaking out of Vince McMahon's retirement, but The Beast Incarnate eventually returned in the main event segment of WWE SmackDown and laid waste to "Mr. Money In The Bank" Theory.
Two-time WWE Hall of Famer Booker T recently took to his “Hall of Fame podcast,” where he spoke about "The Beast Incarnate" Brock Lesnar reportedly walking out of this past Friday's WWE SmackDown shortly after hearing the news that Vince McMahon would no longer be in charge.
Booker T said:
“The story about Brock Lesnar walking out, first of all, I don’t know if Brock Lesnar actually walked out.” “I don’t know if that was a story or not, but I’m sure Brock may have been one of those guys that was emotional and may have had to take a break and said, ‘Let me get out of here for a minute.’ I can see that.”
"The Beast Incarnate" Brock Lesnar is set to challenge Undisputed WWE Universal Champion "The Head Of The Table" Roman Reigns for Roman Reigns' Undisputed WWE Universal Title at Saturday's WWE SummerSlam Premium Live Event in a Last Man Standing Match.
