Apparently, Brock Lesnar’s sudden retirement, which took place on the second night of WrestleMania 42 on Sunday in Las Vegas, Nevada, is already being treated as official within WWE.
Right after being defeated by Oba Femi in the show’s opening match, The Beast Incarnate took off his gloves and boots and left them in the center of the ring.
With the immediate fallout from what happened, WWE Shop seized the moment and launched three new T-shirt designs in tribute to Lesnar.
The shirts, featuring the phrase “Thank You Brock Lesnar,” are already being sold for $34.99 on the company’s official store.
In the official product description, WWE itself confirmed that this was, in fact, a farewell, with the following message:
“In a valiant yet unsuccessful effort against Oba Femi at WrestleMania 42, Brock Lesnar suffered a mighty Fall From Grace powerbomb that would fell the Beast Incarnate. And following that pinfall loss, he reflected, took off his gloves and boots and symbolically gestured farewell to the WWE Universe. Pay your respects to Lesnar’s illustrious career by grabbing this Thank You Brock T-Shirt. The graphics printed across the chest are sure to call to mind an unforgettable matchup and a moment that the sports entertainment world isn’t soon to forget.”
