— With SummerSlam less than a week, Brock Lesnar has reportedly walked out of tonight’s WWE Smackdown, upset at the announcement that Vince McMahon has retired from the company. Bryan Alvarez of f4wonline.com first reported that Lesnar walked out of tonight’s show as soon as news broke that McMahon was gone, giving some sort of line to the effect of “if he’s gone, I’m gone.”
— The report added that if WWE is unable to convince Lesnar to return prior to SummerSlam, they do have a backup plan in place, however, the first option would of course be to get him back. As of this writing, WWE has pulled all advertising of Lesnar from tonight’s Smackdown show and it’s unclear if Lesnar has decided to fly home or if he’s still around town.
