Intercontinental title match added to WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event
A fourth title match is now set for Saturday Night’s Main Event.
Dominik Mysterio will now defend the Intercontinental title in a triple threat match this Saturday in Salt Lake City against Penta and Rusev. This follows events on Monday’s Raw that saw the number one contendership match fall apart thanks to the actions of Mysterio and El Grande Americano.
Before the bout, Dominik was upset about the number one contenders match and wanted help from his Judgement Day friends. Finn Balor and JD McDonagh instead decided to focus on getting the World Tag Team titles back while Roxanne Perez and Raquel Rodriguez chose to focus on Perez’s match against Nikki Bella. Mysterio was seen on the phone with someone as he made his exit. Penta and Rusev were wrestling on Raw when suddenly, Americano and his two associates Rayo and Bravo ran in and attacked both men. Rusev took out Rayo and Bravo, but Grande managed to escape before Penta could lay him out.
Later backstage, Mysterio seemed stunned by the events that took place and told Adam Pearce he assumed that Penta and Rusev would naturally want to go after Los Americanos next. Pearce dismissed that idea, making the triple threat match official for Saturday.
