Roman Reigns has arguably solidified his legacy as the greatest pro wrestler ever in the history of the WWE and professional wrestling as a whole. He's dominated the business since returning to the WWE in 2020 and there's seemingly no stopping.

With his ongoing Universal Championship reign, he's already broken several records and there are many more that's yet to follow. Recently, he has crossed yet another incredible milestone in the WWE which led to another record beyond the TKO-owned company.
