Great work Ricky. Cheers for all your amazing content. Today was my birthday. I mostly celebrated last night at an indy wrestling show and had a pretty chilled out day today shaking off my hangover. This was great to come home to. 15 max size min ratings vs 15 min size max ratings next? 😏🙏🏽

Happy birthday!

[@RickyJSports]

This is the Intercontinental Champs Rumble. The word Intercontinental was flagged on KZbin as being inappropriate for some reason. That's why I couldn't put the name in the title. I hope you enjoy this one. It was so fun to make. Ricky 🎉😊

Funny thing is that im 47 years old and the Miz will always just be the dork on the real world.

Loved the fact that you and I get Don and Dino mixed up 😂 I always had that issue but I think it stems from the fact they both were dominant at the same time in the Golden ERA of WWE!! AWESOME AS ALWAYS Ricky!!!

How about a United States Championship Rumble? You’d have a lot of wrestlers to choose from including the Jim Crockett Promotions/WCW days.

Fantastic Rumble, Dude! Gunther just broke The Honky Tonk's record for the longest title run. A tabloid reported that the 71 year old Honky Man was going to interfere in the match to help Gable win the title. Rhodes don't run!

[@jonathanwhite6129]

I agree, the IC title matches and feuds were so epic. My favorite PPV matches and tltle as well. Shawn Michaels peak (my opinion) was when he waa either chasing or holding the IC title.

[@mikelehmann6256]

Great rumble Ricky! My Intercontinental Mount Rushmore is: Owen Hart, Mr. Perfect, Rob Van Dam & Razor Ramon! A trivial side note: Jericho has held it a record 9 times Rick Flair is the oldest at the age of 56+ years old Jeff Hardy is the youngest at the age of 23+ years Pedro Morales has a combined 619 days for his 2 reigns There are dozens of other wrestlers who have held the IC championship!

[@victorhohnberger151]

Bummer, i was going for Mr. Perfect and predicting the final 2 would've been Bret and Perfect. Yes a part 2 of Intl. Champions would be cool. Might as well throw in, an all heavy weight champions (and part 2) and Cruiserweight Champions rumble (and a part 2) too? Ohh, I just thought of this one, it might be difficult to dig into history to do? Wrestlers who have had a chance to wrestle against the current WWE/F champion (any era) and lose to them on Monday Night Raw or Friday Night Smack Down? I think it's usually a jobber sometimes or a mid ranker that was popular at the time or just to spice things up between two top contenders. It was usually a throw in, from Vince McMahan or a commissioner to follow a story plot or twist or cheat out the champ from their current story, usually before a big PPV? I do remember Vince would always come up with a " brilliant plan", at the time he would kindly remember everyone " because I always get what I want!" So there's a an idea if possible?

[@RickyJSports]

Perfect may be in the finals dude toneddie being in twice

[@biga.b.1079]

This one hit me in all the right spots Ricky. Those 80s and 90s IC champs were like a walk through my childhood. And the Mountie for MVP!

[@RickyJSports]

I am glad it did

[@AWX_Wrestling]

Don Muraco didn't hold the title for seven years. He had two title reigns. Both times he won the belt from Pedro Morales. His first run was about six months. The second run was a little over a year.

That final 3 was some of the best to ever wrestle in the business...

The term itself originally referred to North and South America, but in 1985 the championship belt design’s centerpiece now centered on the Atlantic Ocean, in a map including western Africa and Europe. As of today, the current champion is Gunther, who is in his first reign and tied with the Honky Tonk Man for the longest reign, with Gunter to become the longest reigning champion tomorrow (Having won the title on June 10, 2022, against Ricochet). But in this very match to determine some additional champions for the finale, thirty of the greatest Intercontinental Champions of all time meet in the ring hoping to proclaim a spot in the season finale. But the ending we would see is so jaw-dropping, we almost can’t believe it happened. When it came down to the last two contenders, separated by decades, Eddie Guerreo would steal the win in this rumble for a shot at the champion’s rumble. A feat that would be tremendous… if not for the fact that he ‘already’ won a spot by winning the Dead Man’s rumble in episode 4. What does this mean for Eddie Guerrero considering this is ‘technically’ the second rumble he’s won this season? The simple matter being that by winning two rumbles this season, Eddie stands the best chance of winning the champion’s rumble. But speaking on my own behalf, I feel two things should happen and I think Ricky J. really should hear what I am saying: By winning two rumbles, Eddie Guerrero should be given the ‘best’ advantage the series can offer by entering as the final entrant in the finale thereby giving him the best chance to win the finale. And because Mr. Perfect managed to be the runner-up, he should still have a spot in the finale by a matter of ‘default’ because had he thrown Guerrero away after hitting the perfect-plex he’d be the winner of this match and not Guerrero. I’m merely speaking as a matter of fairness, especially considering this was a rumble where technically it featured competitors who are already in the champion’s rumble anyway (Four in mind, actually). But who was my MVP of this IC champions rumble? Let’s get down to the numbers: Of the thirty champions involved in this match, only FOURTEEN competitors secured the most eliminations. The highest count reached up to ‘4’ eliminations, which is three points higher than the average ‘1’ elimination. I give the Golden MVP Award for ‘coolest’ performance to: Ultimate Warrior Yes, I am aware he’s ‘technically’ already in the champion’s rumble (The eighth man in the finals actually). But putting all that aside, there’s a reason why Ultimate Warrior is one of the most dominant wrestlers on this series whether we like him or not. Coming in like wildfire, Warrior turned up the heat against everyone fighting for a chance to get into the rumble (Whereas for him, he too likely sought an advantage by winning this rumble). Regardless of if he’d win or lose this match, Warrior still holds a place in the finale and him being in the match serves as a reminder just who’s a big threat in this series. The Dull Participation Medal for the ‘lamest’ performance goes to: Goldust Let me make one thing perfectly clear: I don’t ‘hate’ Goldust; I don’t even dislike Dustin Rhodes as a performer. When I saw him win the CCW Heavyweight Championship years ago, and as Dustin Rhodes, I was happy for the man because this would be the most success of him having a singles championship since his days as an IC Champion. But lately, whereas Dusty is making headlines going to the finals with Cody’s status yet to be determined (Or else the question marks would be gone by now), Goldust has ‘failed’ to truly make a lasting impression in this series and lately he’s been on a slump getting into the champion’s rumble. I’m not saying he’s a terrible competitor by any means, but if he wants to join his family in the finals, he needs to figure out what he needs to do if he wants to win a major rumble. If he could get any more desperate to win a rumble, there’s always that ‘Seven’ gimmick he briefly had in WCW until it was dropped for the misinterpretation of him being a ‘child abductor’ (But got to do what you must do to win a rumble… right?). Eddie Guerrero secures his second victory this season of Ricky J.’s rumble, aiming to secure an advantage going into the finals. On that note, we ask a few questions: After what we’ve witnessed in this match, is there enough time for a second IC Champion’s ramble with competitors we didn’t get to see? Could we also see a rumble of the U.S. Championship title holders? How about a Hardcore Champion’s rumble? I’ve got a whole line-up on those guys. And the biggest question of them all: Who’s next?

THE GOAT 🐐 #1SHAWNMICHAELS #2STONECOLD #3THEROCK #4UNDERTAKER OBVIOUS MOUNT RUSHMORE ITS NOT CLOSE

[@markslager7049]

What's up, Ricky J?❓️❔️I think that it would be a cool idea for to have Royal Rumble with WWE Superstars who won the heavyweight title.👍🏋‍♂️🏋‍♀️🏋😎😱

[@djyanno]

I would pay top dollar to see a match Prime Owen against Prime Steamboat. This looks like the first itteration of Goldust, the best one Funny, before you mentionned it, I thought that you need to do another one with Valentine, Morales and Pat Patterson

[@PALMERUSA21]

It’s too bad Edge and Brett in the final two of this Rumble would’ve been exciting to see.

[@therealcarlosv1521]

Mount rushmore for wrestling is Steve Austin The Undertaker Mr Perfect Yokozuna

[@jerrystewart2266]

Mobsters Rumble? Maybe add Jimmy Hoffa for the heck if it?

My Mount Rushmore Macho Man Sting Stone cold Lex Luger

[@bear4676]

You could do a US title champs rumble

[@McMahonHater]

Double J was a fantastic wrestler.

[@jerrystewart2266]

Mobsters Rumber? Maybe add Jimmy Hoffa for the heck if it?

[@frankez1975]

Hogan not only has inches on Macho, he also had lust in his eyes for Elizabeth! All of Hogan’s hotdogging and grandstanding! 😂

[@steveo976]

But Rick Martel was AWA world heavyweight champion before he went to New York.

[@RustyTrombone68]

How about a 24/7 title rumble Ricky? There will be a good amount of superstars that haven’t had much of a go in your other rumbles.

[@dereklarner6298]

How on Earth can a CAW make an Owen Hart look that accurate?
