Another taped episode of WWE Raw will be waiting for us, next week with one of the headliners being announced to be a championship match. Per the confirmation received on the latest bygone episode of WWE’s flagship show, the Intercontinental Championship will be on the line.

The reigning champion Bron Breakker will defend the title against Sheamus which marks the first title defense of his second title reign. Breakker lost the title to Jey Uso following Summerslam. Then last month, Breakker regained the mid-card belt from Uso during their rematch on WWE Raw.

The current feud over the IC title with Sheamus began on a recent episode of WWE Speed. The bout stemmed from a match on Speed between the two that ended in a time-limit draw. The two were also featured in a subsequent backstage interaction on last night’s WWE Raw after which the title bout between these two was announced for next week.
