Roman Reigns reaches massive new milestone after WWE SummerSlam 2022
Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns has reached yet another milestone after last night's SummerSlam.
The main event of The Biggest Party of the Summer this year saw a brutal Last Man Standing match between Reigns and Brock Lesnar. The two megastars gave their all in what turned out to be a match for the ages. In the end, Reigns managed to retain his title after some help from The Usos.
Roman Reigns has now completed a whopping 700 days as the Universal Champion in WWE. He won the title on August 30, 2020, at WWE Payback by defeating "The Fiend" Bray Wyatt and Braun Strowman in a triple threat match.
