The Rules
As negotiated by former WWF Champion Bob Backlund, the match would be contested under two-falls rules (the phrase "best two out of three" gets thrown around a few times on commentary, which makes zero sense); the first fall would decide the winner of the Intercontinental Championship and the second fall would determine the European Champion. Any pinfall or submission to any competitor would result in a win.
