4 Years ago today in WWE, the iconic 1,316 day championship reign of Roman Reigns began. Sadly, today also marks 4 years since the end of Bray Wyatt’s final title reign.
On August 30th 2020, in the main event of the WWE Payback pay-per-view, Reigns defeated Braun Strowman and The Fiend in a Triple Threat Match to win the Universal Championship. Roman pinned Strowman to win this match.
Reigns would later win the WWE Championship at WrestleMania 38 in 2022, thus becoming the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion.
The Tribal Chief’s legendary title run was ended by Cody Rhodes in the main event of WrestleMania 40 – Night 2 in April 2024.
