#3 Challenge Sami Zayn for his Intercontinental Title

While joining forces with Braun Strowman could be a good short-term storyline, another better alternative would be Jeff Hardy appearing to announce his intentions to go after the Intercontinental Championship, which was recently won by Sami Zayn at Elimination Chamber 2020.

Because the trio of Zayn, Shinsuke Nakamura, and Cesaro successfully took out Strowman to take the title from him, many fans were surprised to see them not arguing over who among them would take the title. They happily let Zayn pin the Monster Among Men and become the new Intercontinental Champion.

But how long will they be able to co-exist, especially with the kind of attitude this new Sami has? Surely, I can see him bragging about how he beat Strowman, not giving much credit to his fellow Superstars, resulting in tension between the three of them. Maybe they'll turn on him.

With Jeff Hardy wanting a shot at the title as well, this could set up an amazing multi-men match for the Intercontinental Championship at WrestleMania 36! Sami Zayn vs Jeff Hardy vs Braun Strowman vs Cesaro vs Shinsuke Nakamura for the IC Title in a ladder match at WrestleMania? Just take my money and book it WWE!
