WWE Clash of Champions 2019: 11 last-minute predictions

#6 Intercontinental Championship: Shinsuke Nakamura (c) vs. The Miz

In 2018, Shinsuke Nakamura won the United States Championship from Jeff Hardy at Extreme Rules and went on to have one of the least meaningful reigns with the title in recent WWE history.

In 2019, “The King of Strong Style” became the Intercontinental Champion at the same event by defeating Finn Balor and, once again, he was treated as an afterthought on SmackDown Live in the month that followed the PPV.

Now that he has aligned with Sami Zayn, it looks as though WWE has a plan in mind for the 2018 Royal Rumble winner, which makes him the clear favourite to win at Clash of Champions against an opponent whose babyface character is not connecting with fans in the way that it used to.

One day, The Miz will win his ninth Intercontinental Championship, tying Chris Jericho’s record in the process, but Sunday does not look like it will be that day.

Prediction: Shinsuke Nakamura
