Roman Reigns has held the Universal Championship for almost 300 days and will be looking to extend this reign this weekend at WrestleMania Backlash.
Reigns has overcome some incredible obstacles as Champion already. A major one saw Reigns pin both Daniel Bryan and Edge just over a month ago to walk out of WrestleMania with the Championship.
Reigns has often relied on the services of "Main Event Jey Uso" over the past few months. But when the spotlight is on the Champion, he makes sure that he delivers. That is what the WWE Universe has seen throughout his reign.

This weekend will be no different. While The Tribal Chief has some family issues that he needs to attend to, he is the kind of star who is able to put this aside and focus on the task at hand.
It's hard to see Cesaro being the man to end Roman's Universal Championship reign, especially since The Swiss Superman has all of the momentum heading into WrestleMania Backlash.
