After suffering defeat to rival Oba Femi – in just four minutes and 42 seconds – a tearful Lesnar laid his gloves and boots in the middle of the ring at Allegiant Stadium. 

After the emotional and symbolic act, Lesnar then had a passionate embrace with longtime friend and onscreen Paul Heyman, before turning and waving to the crowd. 

Lesnar, who also had a stint as a heavyweight UFC fighter, walks away from the sport as a 10-time WWE champion, a two-time Royal Rumble winner and bona fide legend.
