Sami Zayn's first two Intercontinental Championship reigns were entertaining as he used heel tactics to defend his title. With Sami Zayn winning the title again, the Intercontinental Championship picture looks promising again. Fans are wondering who Sami Zayn will defend his title against at The Grandest Stage of Them All.

Drew McIntyre was a successful champion of the Thunderdome Era. His world title reign will be noted as one of the defining moments in WWE.

Despite his incredible run, the former WWE Champion has been in monotonous storylines since dropping the title to Bobby Lashley. The Scottish Warrior is currently involved in a feud with Happy Corbin & Madcap Moss. Most recently, McIntyre beat Moss at Elimination Chamber 2022.

To revive his career, McIntyre should be given the Intercontinental title. Having him win the championship from Zayn would give a great boost to his career.
