When Brock Lesnar came up to the main roster in 2002, WWE legend Ric Flair was still an attraction on weekly TV, and was being featured in matches on a regular basis. On an episode of RAW on July 1, 2002, Lesnar defeated Flair with ease. Lesnar opened up about The Nature Boy in his book years later, and stated that he didn't want to end up being like him.

"It got to the point that I remember one day looking across the locker room at Ric Flair, who was then in his mid-fifties, and saying to myself, 'That’s not going to be me.'"
"I wondered how many of his own kids' birthday parties did Flair miss? How many of their graduations? I didn't want to be pushing sixty years old and still wearing tights."

Brock Lesnar wrestled his last WWE match against Drew McIntyre at WrestleMania 36, where he lost the WWE title to The Scottish Psychopath. Lesnar's WWE contract soon ran out, and he isn't associated with the company anymore. It's no secret that Brock Lesnar has made enough money to last a lifetime, and it wouldn't surprise anyone if he never comes back to a wrestling ring. At 43-years-old, Brock Lesnar still has a long and fulfilling life ahead of him. If he never comes back, it's safe to say that he "got out" at the right time.
