Roman Reigns crosses gigantic milestone; will surpass former WWE Champion in August
Roman Reigns has now hit 1000 days in terms of combined days as a world champion in WWE.
The Tribal Chief has been breaking records one after the other ever since he became Universal Champion at WWE Payback 2020. Reigns recently defeated Brock Lesnar in a Last Man Standing match at SummerSlam 2022 and retained his two titles. With the big win, Reigns completed 700 days as Universal Champion in his current reign.
The Undisputed WWE Universal Champion has now surpassed another massive milestone in WWE and has completed 1000 days across all of his world title reigns under the WWE umbrella.

The Tribal Chief is the most dominant WWE Superstar of the current era. He has been reigning supreme over the WWE roster for about two years now.
Only a few are above Roman Reigns when it comes to combined days with the world title
Roman Reigns surpassed Randy Orton in terms of combined days as world champion earlier this year. His next target is former WWE Champion Pedro Morales, who held the belt for a whopping 1027 days.
Reigns is now just a few weeks away from surpassing Morales, after which he will eye WWE legend Triple H, who has been world champion for a combined 1214 days.
In his quest to remain at the top of WWE, The Tribal Chief has put down some of the biggest names in the industry like John Cena, Edge, Rey Mysterio, Brock Lesnar, and Daniel Bryan.
WWE Hall of Famer Bruno Sammartino holds the record for the number of combined days as world champion in WWE, at 4,040. At this point, it's highly unlikely that Reigns will manage to surpass Sammartino's long-standing record, but stranger things have happened in the past.
