Brock Lesnar has been the WWE Universal Champion for more than a year now. As of writing this, he has been holding onto the Title for 435 days and doesn’t look to be relinquishing it anytime soon.

Brock’s 435+ day reign means that he has broken a WWE record.
Brock has officially passed CM Punk to become the Longest Reigning World Champion of the Modern Era. Punk held onto the WWE Championship for 434 days.
These are obviously two different titles but ‘World Title’ applies to both of them. Punk will still technically hold the record for the longest WWE Championship reign of the modern era.
Punk Title defences: 141
Lesnar Title defences: 10

The all-time record is held by Bruno Sammartino, which you can check out here. It will never be broken.
