Roman Reigns completed 629 days as champion

This Friday marked 629 days for Roman Reigns as the WWE Universal Champion.

During the opening segment of the show, Paul Heyman declared Reigns as the greatest champion of all time. He compared The Tribal Chief to the likes of Bruno Sammartino, Hulk Hogan, Stone Cold Steve Austin, The Rock, John Cena and Brock Lesnar, claiming that Reigns was better than all of them.

The Wiseman also pushed The Usos to bring the RAW Tag Team Championship to the "Island of Relevancy" or to not return at all. The Head of The Table took the mic and stated that The Bloodline will go down as the greatest faction in the history of WWE.

It will be interesting to see which WWE Superstar can dethrone Reigns and end his historic run with the top titles in the company.
