Roman Reigns has reached yet another milestone as the reigning Undisputed WWE Universal Champion.
The Tribal Chief now boasts the fourth-longest title reign in WWE history. He has held the Universal Championship for 1,238 days, passing the second WWE Title reign of the late Bruno Sammartino (1,237 days).
Reigns is just three spots away from becoming the longest-reigning champion in the history of WWE.
The Tribal Chief is currently behind Sammartino’s first reign (2,803), Bob Backlund’s first reign (2,135), and Hulk Hogan’s first reign (1,474).
Assuming he loses the Universal Title at WrestleMania XL, Reigns will not move any further up the list, as he will only reach 1,316 days.
Reigns also held the WWE Championship for 657 days, which is the sixth-longest reign in WWE history, behind both of Sammartino’s reigns, Hogan, Backlund, and Pedro Morales (1,027).

Roman Reigns, also known as the Tribal Chief, has achieved another remarkable milestone in his career as the reigning Undisputed WWE Universal Champion. With an impressive title reign of 1,238 days and counting, Reigns now holds the fourth-longest title reign in WWE history. This accomplishment is a testament to his dominance and skill in the wrestling world.
By surpassing the second WWE Title reign of the late Bruno Sammartino, which lasted for 1,237 days, Reigns has solidified his place among the all-time greats. He is now just three spots away from becoming the longest-reigning champion in WWE history. The current record holders are Sammartino’s first reign (2,803 days), Bob Backlund’s first reign (2,135 days), and Hulk Hogan’s first reign (1,474 days).
However, it is important to note that Reigns’ position on this list is subject to change. If he were to lose the Universal Title at WrestleMania XL, his reign would come to an end, and he would not move any further up the list. His total days as champion would then reach 1,316, which is still an impressive feat.
In addition to his Universal Championship reign, Reigns also had a notable run as the WWE Champion, holding the title for 657 days. This places him in sixth place for the longest WWE Championship reigns in history. The top five spots are occupied by both of Sammartino’s reigns, Hogan, Backlund, and Pedro Morales (1,027 days).
