History Wrestling / RomanReigns

Roman would then go on to have one of the longest title reigns of recent memory in WWE, holding it for ''1,316 days'', roughly 3 1/2 years. For reference, there are only three wrestlers to hold a world title longer: Wrestling/BrunoSammartino (2,803 days), Wrestling/BobBacklund (2135 Days), and Wrestling/HulkHogan (1,474 Days). He is the first wrestler to defend his title four consecutive times at ''[=WrestleMania=]'', all within the same title reign. At ''[=WrestleMania=] 38'', he once again defeated the then WWE Champion ''Wrestling/BrockLesnar'' to unify it with his Universal Title, becoming the Undisputed Champion in the process. Roman's historic title reign would reach its conclusion at ''[=WrestleMania=] XL'' after being defeated by ''Wrestling/CodyRhodes''.
