The number one contender for the Intercontinental Championship will be determined during the upcoming episode of WWE RAW. Four superstars remain in the ongoing tournament after a series of qualifying matches over the past few weeks.
Jey Uso, Pete Dunne, Ilja Dragunov, and Braun Strowman will compete in a Fatal Four-Way match, with the winner earning the opportunity to challenge Bron Breakker for the Intercontinental Championship.
Here are four WWE stars who could potentially interfere during this high-stakes match on Monday Night RAW
#4. Sheamus
Sheamus faced Ludwig Kaiser and Braun Strowman in a Triple-Threat qualifying match on WWE RAW last week. Just as it seemed that The Celtic Warrior was on the verge of victory, his former stablemate Pete Dunne blindsided him with a surprise attack.
This interference allowed Braun Strowman to capitalize and secure the win, advancing in the Intercontinental Championship number one contenders tournament. Sheamus may return the favor to Dunne by interfering in the upcoming Fatal Four-Way match on RAW and cost him the win.
#3. Bronson Reed
Bronson Reed was originally scheduled to compete in the ongoing Intercontinental Championship number one contender tournament. However, he was withdrawn at the last moment after WWE RAW General Manager Adam Pearce revealed that Reed had tested positive for COVID-19.
Reed's spot was filled by Braun Strowman, who won his qualifying match and now has a chance to become the number one contender. Feeling robbed of the opportunity, Reed might look to make a statement by interfering in the upcoming Fatal Four-Way match. His interference could lead to chaos, potentially with him taking out all the participants involved.
#2. The Judgment Day
Jey Uso has made it clear in all his promos that his next goal is to win a singles title in WWE. Now, he's only one step away from becoming the number one contender for the Intercontinental Championship. However, his recent actions might come back to haunt him.
Last week on RAW, Jey teamed up with Damian Priest to take on The Judgment Day members Finn Balor and JD McDonagh. By helping Priest and Rhea Ripley, Jey got involved in their internal conflict, which may have created tension between him and The Judgment Day.
Given their track record, the faction could interfere during the upcoming Fatal Four-Way match, costing Jey the win and thwarting his title ambitions.
#1. Bron Breakker
Bron Breakker has been a dominant force since his arrival on Monday Night RAW. Despite a minor setback at Money in the Bank, he quickly bounced back, defeating the highly resilient Sami Zayn at WWE SummerSlam to become the new Intercontinental Champion.
He now awaits the outcome of the Fatal Four-Way match between Jey Uso, Pete Dunne, Ilja Dragunov, and Braun Strowman to determine his next challenger. Bron might feel that none of these superstars are worthy of a title shot. This could lead him to interfere in the match, taking everyone out and sending a clear message to the entire locker room.
Given Breakker’s history of breaking the rules, such a scenario is entirely plausible and would further cement his ruthless reputation on the red brand.
