5 realistic contenders to defeat Seth Rollins for the Intercontinental Championship

#3 Kevin Owens

Kevin Owens defeated Seth Rollins in Universal title matches in 2016

It has been confirmed that Kevin Owens will answer Seth Rollins’ latest Intercontinental Championship open challenge when WWE visits London for Raw on Monday.

KO has lost five straight pay-per-view matches and is bound to get back to winning ways (and winning titles) over the next few months, while “Monday Night Rollins” will be a strong candidate to challenge for the Universal Championship again towards the end of the year, so his time as IC champion is likely to be limited.

Will Owens win the title at the first time of asking this Monday? Probably not, but as much as The Miz claims to be the sole person who made the IC title relevant again, KO did a fine job as champ during his two reigns in 2015 and 2016, so he’d be a good choice to succeed Rollins at some point.
