Earlier this year, The American Nightmare expressed interest in bringing back the Winged Eagle title after winning the WWE Championship.


Cody Rhodes once changed the Intercontinental Championship in his first run with WWE

In 2011, Cody Rhodes successfully defeated Rey Mysterio at WrestleMania 27 after he changed his gimmick and went by wearing a surgical face mask. He then later defeated Ezekiel Jackson to win the Intercontinental Championship on the blue brand.

During his time as the Intercontinental Champion, he often distributed paper bags to the crowd in attendance to hide their faces. In October 2011, Rhodes retired fthe current title belt and debuted a new belt with a popular IC championship design from the '80s

Rhodes went on to hold the title for around 236 days before finally losing it to The Big Show at WrestleMania 28. He recaptured the title a month later before dropping it to Christian at the Over The Limit premium live event in May 2012. This was Rhodes' last reign as a singles champion in the company.

In 2016, Rhodes was released from his contract and left WWE. However, WWE decided to use the newly introduced title by Rhodes for several years. In 2019, Sami Zayn introduced a brand new design for the title and handed it to Shinsuke Nakamura, who was the champion at the time.
