Reigns regains the Intercontinental title on RAW's 25th anniversary

Two months ago, during The Shield's reunion, Roman Reigns challenged The Miz, the reigning Intercontinental Champion, to a title match. At the end of that event, the Samoan won the title and sidelined the 'actor' for several weeks.

Until The Miz returned to reclaim what was his. And what better way to do it than on RAW's 25th anniversary? Therefore, they faced each other at the Barclays Center. In a complicated match, the Hollywood star recaptured the Intercontinental title.

With this victory, he became an eight-time champion, being the second wrestler who has held the belt the most times, only behind Chris Jericho (9). However, Reigns didn't make it easy for him, but with the help of his henchmen, Miz was able to turn the situation around.

Precisely, Bo Dallas and Curtis Axel were in charge of removing the protection from a turnbuckle, which would prove to be crucial. When Reigns tried to hit him with his 'spear', Miz dodged it and Reigns crashed into the exposed area. Miz took advantage of his opponent's confusion and hit him with his 'Skull Crushing Finale' to win the match.

"I have brought back greatness, prestige, and quality to the Intercontinental title. Regaining the belt on the 25th anniversary means a lot to me," said the new champion.
