#2 Bobby Lashley(c) vs. Finn Balor - Intercontinental Championship

The battle between Bobby Lashley and Finn Balor for the Intercontinental Championship was dead on arrival and the past few weeks haven't helped its case.

Lashley won the title in a triple threat match a few months ago and was immediately pushed into a program with Balor, which lead to The Irish Young Gun winning the title for the first time at the Elimination Chamber by pinning Lashley's manager, Lio Rush.

Yet, for some unexplained reason, the company decided to put the title back on Lashley and set up their rematch for WrestleMania.

Balor earned his rematch last week on Raw and has promised that The Demon King will make his debut on the Grandest Stage of Them All, but nobody's interested.

Lashley and Balor have wrestled so many times since 2018 that this feels like a never-ending feud. And sadly, the matches haven't been worth it either.
