5 things that could happen on RAW next week

#1 The Miz wins the Intercontinental Championship

The Miz enters the arena with The Miztourage

There’s no doubt in my mind that one of the biggest moments from the 25th Anniversary episode of RAW will see The Miz regain the Intercontinental Championship. If it’s anything like the match that saw Roman win the title, it will be a really, really good match that is mostly even with minimal interference from the Miztourage. At the very end, though, they will probably play a part in the title changing hands.

This will probably not be the main event of the show, because I think that after losing the title, later on in the night they will have Roman announce that after what happened tonight on RAW, he is going to focus on another opportunity… winning the Royal Rumble again and winning the Universal Title that he believes is rightfully his. It could end up being the main event, though, if Miz ends up winning the belt in a chaotic scene that leads to the show ending with a gigantic brawl, as episodes of RAW before the Rumble tend to do.

No matter how it happens, one thing that I am very confident in saying is that The Miz will become 8-time Intercontinental Champion, putting him one reign behind Chris Jericho. He will also likely become the longest reigning IC Champion by way of combined days, as he is only 3 weeks behind 2-time champion Don Muraco and under 100 days behind 2-time champion Pedro Morales.
