Intercontinental title match official for WWE Night of Champions
A match for the Intercontinental title is set for Saudi Arabia.
It was made official on Raw that Dominik Mysterio would be defending the Intercontinental title against AJ Styles on June 28 in Riyadh. This comes following an altercation the two had on Monday’s show in Green Bay.
After Styles defeated Judgment Day member JD McDonagh, Mysterio attacked Styles, who ended up getting the upper hand and sent Mysterio out of the ring. He posed with Mysterio’s championship as the champion retreated to the back with Finn Balor.
Later backstage, Styles handed the title back to Aldis who told Styles he’ll get a chance at keeping the title if he was able to defeat Mysterio at Night of Champions.
Back in May, Styles told Mysterio that he would be coming after his title.
