5 popular WWE Superstars that must retire in 2018

#1 Brock Lesnar

Brock Lesnar

There is only one reason why Brock Lesnar is on this list. That reason, no matter how much Brock Lesnar fans find it ridiculous, is that he has been a part-time champion on and off for two years now and while things could always change, it doesn't seem like WWE really wants that to happen. In fact, the company has seemingly been in no rush to change that and bring him back to television.

Of course he has made some appearances throughout 2017, which is more than he has in awhile, that still hasn't stopped WWE from keeping him off television for extended periods of time. Even worse, the Universal title would stay off television with him, which kind of took away from the lure of the new belt.

With that being said, and Brock Lesnar's monumental accomplishments over the course of his WWE career, he really needs to retire from professional wrestling and finally allow them to prepare for the future. WWE might not want to give up on one of their biggest draws, but it's only going to help them in the long run if they do and focus on younger talent.

In the end, Lesnar has had his time in the company and would be better off just retiring when his contract is finally up. Not only does that give him a chance to finally get off the road, but also allows popular stars like Finn Balor, Bray Wyatt, Seth Rollins, and countless others to take a bigger role in the company.
