5 things you may not know about Brock Lesnar and Sable's relationship

#3. Brock Lesnar demanded that Sable leave WWE for their relationship to continue

Eight months following Brock Lesnar's departure from WWE, Sable also left the company. In his book "Death Clutch: My Story of Determination, Domination, and Survival," the former Universal Champion disclosed that she did not leave because the company treated her wrongly or disrespected her. Instead, she left for him.

The Beast Incarnate revealed that his only demand in his relationship with Sable was that she leave WWE:

"I wanted to marry Rena (Sable). However, before I could do this, I needed her to get out of WWE. 'If we want a relationship,' I told her, 'neither one of us can work for that company. We both know the long-term side effects of everything there.' That was my only demand. Nothing else. Just that. And so she left World Wrestling Entertainment. She had worked so hard to get back into that company, and now she was leaving it again, except this time she was giving up her career for me. It couldn’t have been an easy decision," Brock Lesnar wrote in his book.

In August 2004, WWE announced the release of Sable. Her final match came against Torrie Wilson on the June 29, 2004, episode of SmackDown. Although the 54-year-old defeated Wilson two days earlier at The Great American Bash pay-per-view, she lost to the WWE Hall of Famer in her last WWE match.

Brock Lesnar returned to WWE in 2012. Nevertheless, his wife never worked for Vince McMahon again.
