#1 Roman Reigns dominates both top contenders to his Universal Championship at WrestleMania 37
Roman Reigns is still the WWE Universal Champion after defeating both Daniel Bryan and Edge in the main event on Night Two of WrestleMania 37.
Leading into the match, Reigns was concerned about losing his title without being pinned in the Triple Threat bout. In a poetic twist, though, Reigns pinned both Edge and Bryan at the same time to retain his gold.
The finish saw Reigns booked to be as dominant as we have ever seen a heel champion in the main event of a WrestleMania.
Yes, Reigns did have assistance from Jey Uso in the moments leading up to the end of the match, but the visual of Reigns pinning both of his challengers simultaneously was a strong one.
Bryan and Edge freely admit that they both have far more matches behind them than they do in front of them. By booking Reigns in this fashion, the company backed The Tribal Chief as the mainstay of the Universal Championship picture for many years to come.
The nature of Reigns' win was shocking on the surface, but it makes a lot of sense for WWE moving forward.
To truly build a top tier superstar, moments like this are necessary. The treatment of The Fiend in the opening match of the night proves how damaging inconsistent booking can be.
Since he returned at SummerSlam 2020, Roman Reigns has been positioned as WWE's biggest star. The main event of WrestleMania 37 only enhanced that status.
