Triple H Stripping Roman Reigns Of Title?

There have been some rumors that WWE could soon split the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship, currently held by Roman Reigns. WWE Chief Content Officer Triple H apparently considered dropping a major WWE Championship at some point.

 


 

Reports on Triple H wanting to split the titles

FightFans has reported that one of their sources indicated that “The Game is not a fan at all of the Universal Championship, and at one point, he was looking to drop it.”

“HHH suggested retiring the [Universal] Championship at one time; he really doesn’t like the title” was the exact wording the outlet reported.

The outlet further noted that they are unable to establish whether or not this means that the belt will be dropped at some point in the near future. It is uncertain if Triple H wants to split the world titles following WrestleMania 39, with SummerSlam being the point by which he wants to have that situation shored up.

Looking further, it was noted that Hunter apparently wanted to drop the title when he first took over from Vince McMahon as the head of creative. However, he “recognized its importance for the dual champion role.”

The World Heavyweight Championship which had been retired, was being considered as a replacement, but this would not work as it is inconsistent with the rest of the World Titles that are currently on the main roster.

Roman Reigns is set to defend his title against the 2023 Men’s Royal Rumble match winner Cody Rhodes in the headlining match at WrestleMania 39 Night Two.
