WWE Rumour: Intercontinental Championship Match to Change at Greatest Royal Rumble

The Greatest Royal Rumble event is all set to be hosted on April 27th. It is going to be no less than a Wrestlemania calibre event in Saudi Arabia.

Almost all the marquee names from both Raw and Smackdown are coming under one wing to entertain the Middle East fans. No such live show with such big capacity has been held, prior to this.

The likes of John Cena, Triple H, Roman Reigns, AJ Styles, Kurt Angle, Daniel Bryan and all the regular roster members will take part in this show. Moreover, The Undertaker will be seen in competition in an event except for Wrestlemania after almost three years. The Casket Match is back against Rusev after a long time.

Apart from these, seven championships combining from both Raw and Smackdown will be put on the line making the night even grander. Only the women’s championships will not get defended since we know that there are certain restrictions for the female superstars in this middle-east country.

In the recent times, we have been getting reports that one of the already confirmed matches might get altered. The Intercontinental Championship is in-concern, according to the reliable source. It is to be noted, the fatal-4-way match for the title has been confirmed amongst Seth Rollins, Samoa Joe, Finn Balor and The Miz.

But, if reports from PWInsider.com is to go by then, this might become a fatal-5-way match in the future. The rumoured name that might get included in this match is Bobby Lashley. This man returned on the night after Wrestlemania to get a huge ovation from the crowd. Destroying Elias, he made a tremendous impact.

For now, he’s not been booked in any of the matches for the Greatest Royal Rumble event. So, rather than wasting him on the show, it will be a much better option to insert him into the Intercontinental Championship match. This match is a ladder match where the title will be suspended high above the ring.

The only way to grab the Intercontinental Championship is using a ladder that can reach the hanging title. Till now, there’s no official information available on WWE.com regarding this. It is likely that the match might get confirmed on the upcoming edition of Monday Night Raw. No doubt, the inclusion of Bobby Lashley will make the contest even bigger.
