#1 Brock Lesnar is still Universal Champion

And STILL WWE's Universal Champion, Brock Lesnar
And STILL WWE's Universal Champion, Brock Lesnar

As of this writing, Brock Lesnar has been Universal Champion for 480 days. After winning the title from Goldberg at Wrestlemania 33, it increasingly seemed like Roman Reigns would be the man to dethrone The Beast and assume his position at the top of WWE's food chain.

The two powerhouses collided in a rematch of Wrestlemania 31. Wrestlemania 34's main event was expected to go Reigns' way, but Lesnar somehow retained his championship, brutalizing The Big Dog along the way.

A top AEW star just called one of his colleagues 'spoiled' and 'narcissistic' HERE.

The two then had a rematch in a steel cage at the Greatest Royal Rumble in Saudi Arabia, where Lesnar retained once more (albeit unconvincingly), and Lesnar vs. Reigns Part III is slated to take place at Summerslam where Lesnar's reign may finally come to an end, either thanks to Reigns or Money in the Bank winner Braun Strowman. Expecting a part-timer's reign to last this long was unexpected to say the least, but that's exactly what happened.
