Tyler Bate became the first-ever NXT UK Champion by defeating Pete Dunne back in 2017. Dunne ended Bate's reign at NXT TakeOver: Chicago later that year, at 125 days.

Dunne lost the belt to Walter at NXT TakeOver New York, clocking his reign at a whopping 685 days! This one's certainly a record that won't be broken for a long time to come.

The Universal title was unveiled in 2016, with Finn Balor becoming the first-ever Champion at SummerSlam that year. Lesnar cashed in his Money in the Bank contract on Seth Rollins at Extreme Rules 2019, and picked up an easy victory over the latter.

This was Lesnar's record third Universal Champioship victory, with the first two being over Goldberg at WrestleMania 33 and Braun Strowman at Crown Jewel 2018.
