10 Forgotten WWE Intercontinental Champions

[@ospe0310]

I low key want Truth to win the IC championship, and John Cena to be the 24/7 champion at the same time. Just so Truth can say something like "They say you can't see John Cena..... But I'm the I C champion, so he can't hide from me"

[@emceehawaii7542]

You're invited to my wedding

[@REbones714]

I love this, thanks for the chuckle :D

[@luccirobbins6675]

I’d like to buy this man a drink.

[@imnappy843]

The fact that I can hear truth saying this

[@DYLANJJK94]

Truth would be out of the job if he came up with that.... Lol

[@chickenlil180]

We all remember D-Lo held the IC and European championship at the same time because Kurt Angle said he doesn't count.

[@Zaubermeister]

Hello

[@the1flym459]

I will never forgive Ezekiel Jackson for ending Christian's ECW Championship reign and retiring the belt

[@erotomainasequnce]

I got upset when Christian lost

[@jdbruiser]

Sorry but Christian was a decorated superstar already, Zeke needed to look formidable and remember WWE/ECW wasn't about veterans as much as it was about putting over new talent-although Zeke had been in WWE a couple of years before winning the ECW title.

[@DYLANJJK94]

Blake Bridger neither were ECW guys lol

[@KingKhanate1997]

Nah, the EC Dub belt WWE was waving around at the time was the dug up corpse of the original, not at all of the same spirit or importance. Did Jackson deserve to be its last champ? Hell no, but at least he put it down so WWE could stop disgracing it.

[@martyscurllisinnocent4324]

Ezekiel Jackson was terribly underrated in WWE. He was not bad at all

[@LukeLeonettiYouTube]

The CAW I made of Ezekiel Jackson in 2k19 looks more like Ezekiel Jackson than Ezekiel Jackson looks like Ezekiel Jackson

[@ieatducks4715]

Can you post a video of reviewing the caw I want to see how good it looks

[@TenormanVA]

I'm glad Pacitti threw in a "John o'clock" reference

[@craig725]

Zack Ryder. WM 32 wins the ladder match, loses next night on Raw.

[@armaan4246]

People are still pissed.

[@Showtime6192009]

But Ppl Still Remember It

[@shantanukale1468]

But it was memorable

[@Demiurge0000]

Saw Ezekiel Jackson in the thumbnail and I just have this to say: He, under no circumstance, should have been the final ECW Champion, Christian is the one who should have that honor

[@jdbruiser]

Why? Christian wasn't extreme and WWE/ECW was about giving the torch to emerging talent. Sure Zeke was with WWE for a couple of years by the point he became ECW champion, but Christian didn't need to be the last ECW champion because his legacy can already decorate all over ECW's mortuary.

[@Demiurge0000]

@@jdbruiser think about it this way: Ezekiel won the title on the promotions final night, which means he was champion for the last 3 minutes of the show, adding onto that Zack Ryder ran interference. If Ezekiel had won the title on his own without interference maybe I could justify it but as far as I'm concerned Ezekiels wiki should only read 1- time intercontinel champion

[@jdbruiser]

@@Demiurge0000 Ok then, but c'mon Zeke being the last ECW champion is a summation of WWE/ECW as a whole.

[@DYLANJJK94]

WWE: ECWshould never of happened. Vince botched a good payday over wanting to ruin them all over again.......

[@jdbruiser]

@Juan Carlos Rivera Well he's extreme insofar as he's been a part of some legendary extreme matches like TLC. But when you think of extreme Christian's name isn't within the first 50 names you think of I'd say.

I remember Ezekiel Jackson more as Big Rick from Lucha Underground, i think that says a lot

[@TheQuestionsssssssss]

Grimbel Fix big Rick was a good character too

[@auguststrain3462]

Too bad he got killed

[@MaturedSinner]

That JBL match has a special place in my heart. I remember he kept on saying he would make history at Mania during the build up, and I called into WrestleZone radio to ask them if they thought the history he would make would be losing the belt in record time. They laughed and said no. Lo and behold, I called it.

[@troncarter17ify]

That sporcle quiz line was top notch.

[@foodiefood2k24]

Luke Harper??

[@manchesterladdie123]

@A'mahr Brown Luke Harper is an obvious name for this list though

[@vader97100]

I thought that was gonna be number one 😂

[@viperxtj61x78]

Read the title again dumbass

[@TheSkykidof68]

So forgotten, they didn't even rember him to put him on the list

[@sinjin4563]

@A'mahr Brown It was 2014

[@connormaze4021]

I forgot about Big E tbh 😂😂

[@foodiefood2k24]

How can you forget Luke Harper back in 2014,Kane, booker t, Val venis,Billy Gunn , Marty janetty?

[@jackji2325]

Now do the European champs!

[@grey1288]

I even forgot that CM Punk was also a Intercontinental Champ before.

[@jaycerrito3142]

And he's the quickest to become Triple Crown Champion. I'm surprised WWE didn't make anyone beat CM Punk's Triple Crown length

[@KingHiki]

*pauses to do the sporcle quiz before continuing the video*

[@vikingsbball21]

i got 5 out of the 10 (including number 1) lol

[@undeadcommander86]

I think I did the wrong quiz I had to name litterslly every intercontinental champion ever with 82 answers and boy are some of the names annoying

[@KayBearYT]

WWE wants to forget Chris Jericho now despite him having the most IC reigns (one more than The Miz IIRC)

[@MrRonald2796]

Don't be surprised if they give two short IC reigns to The Miz so he can surpass his record.

[@KayBearYT]

MrRonald2796 You are correct. Both of those reigns will be historic.he is 20 days behind pedro marales for the most combined days as ic champion so he can break that record in his next short one month reign and obviously the one after that will break jerichos record.I have been fantasy booking jericho vs miz since raw 25 where the winner would be first ever 10 time ic champ but sadly it wont happen now.

[@TheQuestionsssssssss]

Mike Kay which probably means by this time next year Miz will have won the IC title twice. So that WWE can erase Y2J like they did Punk with Brock 😭

[@TheQuestionsssssssss]

But plot twist that’ll only tie him cus Y2J won the NJPW IC championship....even though they won’t recognize it we know the truth

[@DYLANJJK94]

It would have meant something in the 80's to mid 90's, But either way, who really goes after a secondary title that often when in kayfabe, They should have went for the top title after 1-3 IC title reigns.

[@ComicSams48]

Seth Rollins will always be my favorite IC champion. His reign after Wrestlemania 34 was what really got me into wrestling for awhile. Sadly I was too lazy to keep up outside of SummerSlam last year and Mania this year

[@headspill]

I can’t be the only one who at first glance thought the thumbnail was Terry Crews.

[@Al7249]

I legit thought it was Shelton Benjamin. Till I remembered

[@michaelroche9091]

marc mero visited my hs when i was a senior 2 yrs ago and gave a very sad assembly. love that guy

[@Zetonate]

I'll always remember Marc Mero as IC Champion because he came to my school as a motivational speaker when I was in elementary school, showing off a replica of the championship and telling his life story.

[@xVenova]

#1 - Finn Balor

[@Jamvaan]

How could anyone forget the Eurocontinetal champion D-Lo Brown?

[@robertclark2253]

How can anyone forget the Big Show or Ric Flair winning the IC title ? Those wins were hilarious . Not only that I remember all of these .

[@adamknight542]

Marc Mero did a speech at my school and brought his IC title with him. So that's pretty cool. He's a genuine dude, and his story is incredible

[@Crazibeast]

I only remember Ezekiel Jackson holding the IC Title because I had the figure of him that came with the belt when I was a kid.

[@Avatar1977]

I'm not sure what it says that I do remember Ric Flair winning the IC title, but I don't remember him hitting a top rope move successfully.

[@RC99_Productions]

I've actually played the IC Title quiz on Sporcle and I've gotten everyone right

[@Mattcruzedc]

It’s probably because I’m a huge wrestling nerd that has way too much wrestling trivia in my head, but I remember all of these guys as champion.

[@Aliw23]

My favorite inter. Champ will always be the miz

[@Dawnbreakerr]

I'll always remember the Godfather winning the intercontinental title because I was there live.

[@troy2000me]

You forgot Billy Gunn! He held it for about two weeks. Well... maybe I can believe you forgot Billy.

[@FretzlemaniaPod]

Gotta try harder, I remember every single one lol

[@samlegeret7691]

Randy orton

[@thedeadmanfan09]

Curtis axel had the title for 5 months? I remember him winning the title but 5 months? That sounds next to impossible in 2019

Most of these I remember actually only Jackson I forgot

[@hardluckwoman3448]

I remember all of these. I remember kane doing a version of a frakensteiner to albert.

[@crowqueen47]

Jack swagger was IC champ for about 10 minutes after winning it on a house show before losing right back to Big E

[@MisterNym]

I was more surprised when you mentioned Punk had it than a lot on this list.

[@dakotadeal8970]

I love the Sporcle shoutout

[@GloriousRevelations]

All of these I remember. Then again the IC title was always my favourite belt

[@PrezNev]

So when the number of holders reaches 100, are we going to get a ranked list of all intercontinental champions ranked from worst to best?

[@MiNyxTemPahh]

My man Adam with that Sporcle shoutout! Rivalries were settled on that website!

[@rabinyadav8136]

Props for the George Mizanin joke

[@destendgem]

Honestly, if they ever did a live action version of Kengan Ashura, I could totally see Ezekiel Jackson as Muteba the Genocider.

[@EFIL4NAISREP]

Dean Douglas, really? I remember that moment vividly to this day.

[@saxmajor71]

That sporcle quiz scenario...I've been there.

[@Robochuck]

I had to pause the video at the Albert O'Dell-Rio part. It took me both a second to get it and then completely by surprise my sides hurt...

[@kevw6018]

Dolph held the ic title 6 times but no mention at the start I don’t get this blind hate for dolph by cultaholic Is it because of dolph mentioning what culture back in the day on ride along probably

[@chrisswan907]

The title says “FORGOT” were IC champions

[@kevw6018]

chrisswan907 they mention who held it multiple times like Chris Jericho , the miz at start of the video why not dolph They could have just forgotten I am just pointing out that there is some bad blood between them and dolph .

[@wwejamal09]

I'm surprised Luke Harper wasn't on this list if I'm honest. The dude is super talented, but I've honestly forgotten that he was IC Champion in 2014, because he held it for like 2 weeks or something and then dropped it back to Dolph Ziggler at TLC.

[@crowley5217]

Didn't Curtis also win it on Father's Day as well?

[@Crush1084]

It was either that or Mr Perfect's birthday. Can't remember. I think it was that though

[@ChristopherJames1993]

Yeah he did.

[@tObito687]

the only reason i remembered marc maro being champ is because when he came to do a motivational speech at my school he had it

[@averykevin47]

Ahmed Johnson should have been number 1. He's one wrestler that's been erased from the WWE history books that many people don't really remember. he was the first ever African-American to win the IC title not to mention the first ever African-American in the WWF to win a single title. I'm surprised he wasn't mentioned in this video.

[@thrasher66613]

I remember The Godfather. He was known as Papa Shango in the early 90s.

[@j3j700]

[@JohnnyHardCastle1]

D'Lo Brown doesn't count as the first Euro-Continental champions. Just ask Kurt Angle.

[@Mr.HootieHooRDK]

Number 10 was the only one I didn't know about I can see why you put D Lo brown on the list.

[@Argonautx66]

Shawn has his rear handed to him by ONE Marine. It’s in the court document that he dropped at McMahon’s advice.

[@natev6306]

I only remember Godfather because of Owen 😢

[@viajaycay]

I rem when DLo won n became the undisputed Eurocontinental title cos he was one of my fav wrestlers. I totally popped. And Dean Douglas won the IC title during the period I became a fan so that i remember too. Last but not least Lance storm winning off Big Show was smth i totally forgot

[@joemedrano2399]

I miss Ezekiel jackson he was a beast

[@N_A__]

Michaels was beat up by one marine, not “a group.” I don’t think he’s won a real fight in his entire life. 😂

[@MarkieDood]

The only one of these I actually remembered was Big Show's, and it wasn't even so much that I remembered his title reign, as much as it was I remember thinking it was kind of dumb they took the title off Cody for a meh 'Mania pop when he had been doing such good things with the belt.

[@throwsnbrews9516]

I remembered most of these...

[@unholyperiodza5442]

Zack Ryder winning the IC ladder match at Wrestlemania, which he lost a day later to the Miz thanks to Maryse. Ryder went back to being a jobber due to the likes of Miz, Baron Corbin, Jinder Mahal, and many others.

[@charlespatulin2802]

The Godfather's IC reign isn't forgettable. Hell, his whole run as the fun-loving pimp character we know today was awesome. The guy he beat for the title for, Road Dogg was more forgettable than his...heck, even Billy Gunn's reign was more forgettable than Road Dogg's despite having a longer reign. Overall, I'm just disagreeing that The Godfather's reign was forgettable, because it isn't

[@bigwigglezgamez798]

Why does Ezekiel Jackson in the preview pic look like he's saying "OLD SPICE BODY SPRAY SMELLS LIKE POWEEEEEERRRRRRR"?
