Roman Reigns has added yet another feather to his cap as Undisputed Universal Champion. The Tribal Chief defeated The Fiend and Brown Strowman in a No Holds Barred Triple Threat match to win the Universal Championship for the second time at Payback 2020. Following his victory over Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 38, Reigns became the first Superstar to hold both the WWE Championship and WWE Universal Championship simultaneously. Now, he has another record to crow about.
Roman Reigns has reached 871 days as the Universal Champion, a legendary title reign that has now surpassed GUNTHER’s 870-day NXT UK title reign. The stat was noted by Wrestling Stats & Info on Twitter.
Roman Reigns is currently engaged in a feud with Kevin Owens, while GUNTHER has kept himself busy with multiple challengers stepping up to him. With WrestleMania 39 just a few months away, it wouldn’t come off as a surprise if WWE manages to pull off The Bloodline vs. Imperium.
