Entering the Intercontinental Championship picture would be a huge promotion for Buddy Murphy. Murphy moved to SmackDown a couple of months ago, but he was seen on TV only once.

The last time he appeared was during Shane McMahon's town hall meeting, in which he did not support Kevin Owens, and said that he would slap Owens if he names him again. However, he has been used in dark match segments prior to the show in recent weeks against Ali.

Although it is unknown when we will get to see the former Cruiserweight Champion on TV, a feud with Shinsuke Nakamura for the Intercontinental Title would do wonders for him. With Eric Bischoff gradually taking over SmackDown, we can expect new talent to get more chances.

Nakamura is a top-class opponent and could do wonders for Murphy’s visibility. At the very least, this would be a high-quality match that could steal the show on any PPV.
