WWE Hall of Famer Booker T recently spoke about The Beast Incarnate Brock Lesnar and how he might have gotten emotional because of Vince McMahon.

Lesnar reportedly walked out before SmackDown when Vince McMahon announced his retirement. The company did manage to bring him back by the end of the show, where he attacked Theory with Money in the Bank briefcase to close the Friday Nights.

Vince McMahon stepped down as the CEO and creative head of the company on Friday. His retirement came off the heels of an ongoing investigation into him which could have prompted him to make the decision. Lesnar allegedly walked out because he wasn't happy with McMahon's decision.

Speaking on the Hall of Fame podcast, Booker T said that Lesnar might have become emotional upon hearing about McMahon's exit, which is why he walked out.

He also speculated that Brock Lesnar might not have walked out, and these were just rumors.

“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,'' said Booker. [H/T:WrestlingInc]
