Just a month after marking his 1000th day as the WWE Universal Champion, Roman Reigns is now celebrating another significant achievement. "The Tribal Chief" has reached the 1028th day of his reign, surpassing yet another legendary figure in professional wrestling. By surpassing Pedro Morales' reign of 1027 days, Reigns has now removed the first WWE Triple Crown Winner from the top five positions on the prestigious and esteemed list of longest-reigning World Champions in WWE history.

Roman Reigns' WWE Universal Championship Reign Has Passed Another Significant Milestone |
Currently, only three individuals have held the WWE title for a longer duration than Roman Reigns: Bruno Sammartino, Bob Backlund, and Hulk Hogan. Reigns, as the leader of The Bloodline, is now 210 days away from surpassing Sammartino's second reign, which holds the record. Achieving this milestone would require Reigns to hold onto the championship until early 2024.
However, the next significant milestone that many fans are eyeing is 1474 days. If Reigns can retain the title until well after WWE Wrestlemania 40 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, he will surpass Hulk Hogan's first reign. Whether Reigns can surpass Hogan's impressive record is yet to be seen, but he has already surpassed the accomplishments of any other champion in the modern era.
The challenge lies in how Vince McMahon, Triple H, and the rest of the WWE creative team can sustain compelling storylines and maintain the audience's interest over such an extended period. While we eagerly await the outcome, it is important to acknowledge the greatness of Roman Reigns in the world of professional wrestling.
