• Roman Reigns Actually Ranks #6 On A Very Elite List, Not #4
Roman Reigns won the Universal Championship by defeating “The Fiend” Bray Wyatt and Braun Strowman in a Triple Threat Match on August 30th 2020 at WWE Payback.
Reigns then won the WWE Championship by defeating Brock Lesnar on April 3rd 2022, in the main event of WrestleMania 38 – Night 2, thus becoming the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion.
