To be precise, the SummerSlam 2020 return converted him into The Tribal Chief of the WWE after a week of which he became the Universal Champion to dominate the competition. On Sunday night, he defeated WWE Champion Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 38 to become the new Undisputed WWE Universal Champion.
