Paul scored a pin-fall victory over Mysterio at the Crown Jewel pay-per-view in Saudi Arabia, as The Sun reports.
He said afterwards: “It feels amazing. I’m shocked and I want to stay humble but f**k that, it’s so much more fun to be arrogant about it!
“This (belt) ain’t leaving my side. This is one of the biggest accomplishments of my life.
“I’m gonna take over this industry bro.
“I’m gonna be the best and I’ve got to keep work really hard.”
It seems Paul is taking that vow very seriously.
He uploaded a series of pictures to his 27 million followers on Instagram wearing the title around his waist in the shower and on a running machine.
Paul also sat on a roof smoking a cigar and snugged up to supermodel fiancee Nina Agdal, all while wearing the gold - with the naked post drawing over 5,000 comments, almost 1 million likes and leaving fans in stitches.
One said: “Bro made sure no one wears the belt after him.”
Another added: “No one is wearing that belt after the last pic.”
One joked: “Ain’t no one gonna be touching that belt for a while.”
Paul tasted his first piece of gold in the WWE and vowed to become the next big thing.
He said: “Something is so appetising about the idea of doing the best I can in this industry.
“And I know the best I can do to become the face of the WWE, is to become the undisputed universal champion.”
