5 WWE Superstars who could dethrone Shinsuke Nakamura for the Intercontinental Championship 

#2 WWE Superstar - Sheamus

WWE superstar Sheamus has had an impressive run on SmackDown recently.

On the November 19 episode of the Blue Brand, the Celtic Warrior beat Ricochet, Cesaro and Jinder Mahal to become part of Team SmackDown at Survivor Series. He defeated the Swiss Superman on the latest edition of SmackDown.

With momentum on his side, the former United States Champion could look to add another feather to his cap in the IC Title. The bout between the Celtic Warrior and the King of Strong Style promises to be quite the spectacle.

#1 WWE Superstar - Drew McIntyre

Drew McIntyre has carved a praise-worthy journey on SmackDown. The Scottish Superstar has overcome a host of opponents since being drafted to the Blue Brand. The likes of Sami Zayn, Mustafa Ali and the team of Happy Corbin and Madcap Moss have fallen to McIntyre.

While he would love to challenge for the Universal Title, McIntyre has to wait for his opportunity with Brock Lesnar already staking claim to Roman Reigns. Having said this, McIntyre can certainly look to challenge Shinsuke Nakamura for the Intercontinental Title.

The contest between the Claymore and the Kinshasa will be tremendous. A bout the WWE Universe would surely not want to miss.
