The Tribal Chief Roman Reigns became the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion by defeating Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 38 in a Winner Take All match. Since winning the undisputed title, Roman Reigns has carried both championships and recently defended it against Riddle on SmackDown.
Now, Fightful Select has provided an update on how WWE views the title. Internally, the title is officially referenced as the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship, but the WWE and Universal Championships are still recognized individually.
It was also noted that both titles could possibly be split once again and go back to being featured on both Monday Night Raw and Friday Night SmackDown in the months to come.
After Roman Reigns successful title defense on last Friday’s episode of SmackDown against Riddle, The Beast Incarnate Brock Lesnar made his return and attacked The Bloodline. Shortly after SmackDown went off the air, WWE announced that Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar will battle in Last Man Standing match for the title at this year’s SummerSlam.
