WWE veteran Brock Lesnar has announced his retirement from professional wrestling, revealing the news during an appearance on "The Pat McAfee Show". The announcement came just days after he suffered a defeat to Oba Femi in a Hell in a Cell match at SummerSlam, marking what appears to be the final bout of his storied wrestling career.

Lesnar, one of the most prominent figures in WWE history, lost to rising star Oba Femi at the SummerSlam pay-per-view event before confirming his retirement on the popular sports talk show. The match took place amid a broader SummerSlam card that also saw WWE star Brie Bella sustain a broken scapula during her own bout, contributing to a notable week of major news from the promotion.
