The WWE 2K24 Universe mode operates separately from play mode, so the assigned double champion won't hold those belts unless you make it that way. Use the following to assign a double champion in the Classic Universe Mode:

Classic Universe

  • Open your Classic Universe mode.
  • Select MyUniverse.
  • Then select Championships.
  • Assign or replace the titleholder for two belts.

Unfortunately, even though your WWE wrestler can hold more than one title, you can't defend two belts in one match in the Superstar version of WWE 2K24's Universe mode. The AI decides the next challenger for a specific belt based on rankings. However, if you want to see your superstar defend more than one belt, you can switch back into Classic mode by selecting Options changing the current playstyle to Classic Mode, and switching back when you're ready.
