Roman Reigns has been the Universal Champion since August 30 of 2020 that’s the Payback pay-per-view, to be exact. Then he unified the Universal and WWE Championships at WrestleMania 38 in the biggest ‘Mania match of all time. The Tribal Chief defeated Brock Lesnar to become the only Undisputed WWE Universal Champion in the history of the company.

Can you remind him that he owes me? You got it? I appreciate that.”
