IC title match to feature on major event for first time in over 500 days

09/03/2022

The Intercontinental title has been one of the main titles in WWE for decades but lately, the belt has taken a step back in importance, especially when it comes to being defended on a premium live event.

Gunther vs Sheamus for the Intercontinental title today at Clash at the Castle will be the first time that the title will be defended on a major show since WrestleMania 37 in 2021. Yes, that’s a total of 16-month absence!

Since April 2021, there have been zero IC title defenses on WWE premium live events, with Apollo Crews vs Big E in a Nigerian Drum Fight being the last one to showcase the title on the big stage.

The Intercontinental title is a title that Sheamus has never won in his career and it’s the one left to become a grand slam champion.
