Following his retirement announcement last Saturday night, where does Brock Lesnar stand in history? Brock Lesnar is a unique athlete, the once-in-a-generation type. That may read like hyperbole to some, but consider facts.

He won national championships at both schools and ended his collegiate wrestling career with a record. He had to maintain his sculpted, to lb frame for the audience, while also learning crazy acrobatic sequences that were part of his stuntman-like performances.

Remember, though, that his time in the WWE included no actual athletic competition. It was pure acting—albeit physically demanding and, oftentimes, physically deteriorating acting, but acting nonetheless. Then, after his three-year competitive hiatus, Lesnar decided that he wanted to play professional football.

No, not Arena League ball. Not the XFL. Not NFL Europa. And certainly not the semi-pro version that some bar room heroes play on weekends.

He wanted to play defensive tackle in the National Football League. Sure, he had elite NFL size, strength and speed for his position. That would have ranked first among defensive tackles at the NFL Combine.

Shockingly, he earned playing time in a couple of preseason games and was a late cut with the Minnesota Vikings. Xavier Woods won the King of the Ring tournament last month. Arguably the most disappointing match of the year took place at WrestleMania 32, with Brock Lesnar beating Dean Ambrose. The match failed to live up to the expectations that fans had set, with Lesnar seemingly showing little interest in giving Dean Ambrose any memorable moments in the match.

Lesnar is slated to return to WWE next year for the Royal Rumble, and is still considered one of the company's top performers. Dean Ambrose went on to win the WWE Championship two months after WrestleMania 32, but never felt as if he was properly valued by the company.

The only match on the card so far where all of the competitors still remain with WWE on its active roster to this day, which is staggering.

Lynch returned to TV this year after a year-long hiatus where she gave birth to her first child. Shane McMahon, who wrestled as recently as WrestleMania 37 in April, is reportedly no longer under contract with WWE, but will likely return when he is needed.

The Rock was one of the world's most famous people at the time, and his popularity has grown since then, starring in movies such as Fast and Furious and Baywatch. Erick Rowan was accompanied to the ring by Braun Strowman and Bray Wyatt, both of whom have been released by WWE this year and have yet to appear for another wrestling promotion.

The segment also featured John Cena, who following WrestleMania 32 in , has gone on to become a famous actor, starring in the Suicide Squad and Fast and Furious movies this year.
