5 WWE Superstars who have benefited from Roman Reigns' absence

#1 Brock Lesnar

Brock Lesnar is once again the Universal Champion

Brock Lesnar had one of the worst reigns in the history of WWE, but the sad thing is that the reign lasted for more than 500 days. This was done in an attempt to get Roman Reigns over with the fans, as Roman could be the one who slays the part-time champion.

WWE succeeded in their mission as the audience badly wanted a full-time champion that they would even support Roman Reigns in the process.

The WWE Universe got what they wanted as Roman finally beat The Beast to become the Universal Champion at SummerSlam, and it looked like Brock would never become champion again, as Roman was apparently scheduled to defeat both Brock and Braun at WWE Crown Jewel.

Roman's condition made the triple threat match a singles match between The Beast and The Monster Among Men, and Brock became a two time Universal Champion afterwards.

Brock can be reckoned as the guy who has benefited the most from Roman's absence. With Brock's contract not ending anytime soon, it looks like he will be holding the title for a long time once again.
