It counts to them. Brock Lesnar's belt is the main belt because it is on Raw. Paul Heyman will say that Brock is the greatest champion of the modern era or whatever. Commentators will agree. Roman Reigns already counts himself as a former three-time Universal Champion. It's an interchangeable term, like "World Title" and "WWE Title" were interchangebable. John Cena is a 13-time WWE Champion. But they say 16 because of the three World Titles. If he wins the Universal Title for #17, they will call him a 17-time Universal Champion.

Brock Lesnar has defended the Universal Title 10 times including house shows. He also beat AJ Styles to ensure his belt is seen as the most dominant, which should kayfabe count as something, but whatever. Kazuchika Okada has defended the IWGP Heavyweight Championship 12 times over a 694+ day period of being champion. That averages out to a defense once every 58 days or so. Brock Lesnar has been champion for 407+ days, and defended the belt every 41 days or so. Even if you take his 7 aired defenses, that makes for an average of 58 days, putting him right in league with Okada, assuming all Okada's defenses are aired.
