Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns continues to dominate the wrestling scene, solidifying his status as a top star with an impressive win-loss record. The creative direction in WWE has consistently positioned “The Tribal Chief” as a force to be reckoned with, and his recent achievements add another layer to his illustrious career.
Protecting the Legacy: Roman Reigns Selective Schedule
Roman Reigns, the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion, strategically maintains a part-time schedule, sparingly appearing at house shows or on television. This approach serves to protect his character and ensure his significance in key storylines and matchups.
Notable Streaks Broken in 2023
In 2023, Reigns faced a couple of setbacks, breaking two significant streaks. During the Royal Rumble, he defended his title against Seth Rollins but suffered a loss via disqualification for failing to break the referee’s count while executing a guillotine choke on Rollins. This marked his first pay-per-view (PPV) loss since the 2020 Royal Rumble, where Drew McIntyre eliminated him. Additionally, it was his first PPV singles match loss since 2019 when Baron Corbin defeated him in a TLC match at the TLC pay-per-view event.
Another milestone was reached at Night of Champions when Reigns, alongside Solo Sikoa, experienced his first clean PPV loss, surrendering the Tag Team Titles to Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn. This trend continued at Money in the Bank, where Reigns and Sikoa were defeated by The Usos.
Recent Success and Television Return
Reigns’ most recent triumph was a successful defense of his Undisputed WWE Universal Championship against LA Knight at Crown Jewel in Saudi Arabia. Following this, he made his return to television on SmackDown, sharing the spotlight with Randy Orton.

Four Years Since Singles Match Pinfall
In a noteworthy milestone, it has been four years since Roman Reigns suffered a pinfall defeat in a singles match. The last instance occurred in 2019 when Baron Corbin emerged victorious in a singles match. This achievement underscores Reigns’ resilience and dominance in the ring, solidifying his reputation as a formidable champion.
As Reigns continues to shape the narrative in WWE with his part-time schedule, his ability to maintain a significant win-loss record and avoid pinfall defeats in singles matches adds to the intrigue surrounding “The Tribal Chief.” Wrestling enthusiasts eagerly anticipate the next chapters in Reigns’ storied career as he navigates the ever-evolving landscape of the WWE.
