Roman Reigns is the reigning Undisputed WWE Universal Champion. He defeated Braun Strowman and The Fiend Bray Wyatt in a Triple Threat No Holds Barred match at Payback 2020 to win the Universal Championship. Then he defeated the former WWE Champion Brock Lesnar at Wrestlemania 38 in a Winner Takes All Match to unify both the top titles in the WWE.
Roman Reigns has not lost the Universal title in the last two years despite putting it on line 23 separate times. Additionally, he’s put the Undisputed Title on the line for once against Riddle on the June 17 episode of Smackdown. After an authoritative win, the reign of terror for the dual champion continues in the WWE.
