Roman Reigns has been Universal Champion for over 800 days, and he won the WWE Championship when he defeated Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 38. The Tribal Chief currently holds two belts which has led many to wonder when WWE could have two world champions again.
At Clash at the Castle back in September, Roman defended his belts against Drew McIntyre, and WrestleVotes recently explained to GiveMeSport that a convoluted idea was pitched to have the champion drop one of his titles.
“The only thing they could think of was with Austin Theory. He was going to somehow make it known that he was only cashing in for one of the belts. Therefore, it became a triple threat, and Tyson Fury stopped him like he did, and Drew would then would take one of the titles.”
WrestleVotes went on to add that WWE wants to have two world titles again, so the plan is to separate them at some point, but the company is struggling to find a way to make it happen.
“They wanted to make the titles separate in the moment, because they do want to titles again, but they’re struggling to figure out how. I do know that they were talking up until maybe night of or day over here.”
Do you think WWE should separate the belts? Sound off in the comments below.
