First Two WWE Intercontinental Title Tournament Semifinalists Revealed

First Two WWE Intercontinental Title Tournament Semifinalists Revealed

WWE has stripped Sami Zayn of the Intercontinental Title for not being able to compete. He’s out for the time being due to Coronavirus.

WWE has announced they are going to be holding a tournament to determine the new Intercontinental Champion. Tonight’s show featured the first two quarterfinal matches tonight.

Match 1 featured Elias and Baron Corbin. This match was far from a technical masterpiece, but did go for several segments of the show.

Elias won with a roll-up. Elias will move on to the semi-finals.  Corbin gets to face the Raw champion on Monday. So, all hope is not lost for King Corbin.

The second match of the night was Daniel Bryan vs. Drew Gulak. The two men have formed an alliance over the last few months.

The match was easily the match of the night, but it did not match the intensity of their previous match-up.

Daniel Bryan won with a heel hook. After the match, Bryan cut a promo about how he’s never had another shot at the IC title since he retired.

I guess the fact that he faced Sami Zayn at WrestleMania for the title didn’t count.

WWE Announced the other match for next week would be:

  • AJ Styles vs. Shinsuke Nakamura
  • Jeff Hardy vs. Sheamus
