The WWE Championship has been carrying the legacies of many legends and is an embodiment of the lineage of the champions that held the title. However, with Triple H presenting a new title at Roman's 1000-day celebration, fans have been widely speculating about the WWE Championship.

Although Paul Heyman still carries both the WWE and the Universal titles, WWE has plans to keep only the new championship around Roman's waist. It should be noted that the company is intending to keep the WWE title away from television as long as Roman Reigns is the champion. WWE will eventually bring back the prestigious title, which has been a personification of greatness.

Reigns surpassed Pedro Morales' championship reign a few weeks ago and stands at the fourth position of the longest championship reigns in WWE history. There are only three names ahead of him - Hulk Hogan, Bob Backlund, and Bruno Sammartino.

Will Reigns be able to surpass Hulk Hogan's title reign and glorify his reign? Comment your thoughts below.
