At WWE Payback on August 30, 2020, Roman Reigns defeated Braun Strowman and The Fiend Bray Wyatt to win the Universal Championship.
Then at WrestleMania 38 on April 3, 2022, he defeated Brock Lesnar to win the WWE Championship and thus became the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion where he unified the two top world titles in the company.
The initial belief was that Roman Reigns would lose the Undisputed Title to Drew McIntyre at Clash at the Castle in the UK, but that didn't happen despite the latter being the top babyface figure on the WWE roster.
According to the reports of Wrestling News, the current creative head in WWE, Triple H is sticking with his predecessor Vince McMahon's original plan for Roman and that's to let him enter WrestleMania 39 as the dual champion for the dream match against The Rock.
