5 WWE Stars Who Could Be The Next Intercontinental Champion

#2 Jinder Mahal

An Intercontinental Title run is exactly what Jinder needs...

"The Modern Day Maharaja" Jinder Mahal may not be every fans favorite Raw Superstar, but that certainly doesn't mean he isn't potentially in line for an Intercontinental Championship run in the near future. Since getting drafted over to Monday Night Raw during this year's "Superstar Shakeup", Jinder Mahal has quite literally been lost in the shuffle. Following his United States Championship loss at the hands of Jeff Hardy, the WWE have in a sense dropped the ball with Jinder.

His feud with Roman Reigns was extremely short-lived, and since then, Mahal has unfortunately been left off television the past couple of weeks. Now it's clear not all will agree that Jinder Mahal is a valuable addition to Raw, but whether you like it or not, Jinder is a fantastic heel - a plausible choice for the next Intercontinental Champion. Vince still seems fairly high on Jinder, and it wouldn't be a smart bet to proclaim that "the Jinder experiment" is over and done with just yet...
