#2 Star-studded Intercontinental Championship match scheduled for WWE SmackDown

This could be a memorable match on WWE SmackDown

This week’s episode of WWE SmackDown will feature an action-packed Fatal Four-Way match for the Intercontinental Championship. Apollo Crews will look to defend his title against Kevin Owens, Sami Zayn, and Big E tonight. He will also have his new-found ally Commander Azeez at ringside, who helped him win the title from Big E at WrestleMania 37.

There are two feuds to note ahead of this match. Big E and Apollo Crews have been involved in a title rivalry since earlier this year. On the other hand, Kevin Owens started feuding with Sami Zayn after he vowed to beat the conspiracy theories out of his friend’s head. The last few weeks have seen all four superstars cross paths on WWE SmackDown, and now, everyone has set their sights on Crews’ title as well.

Considering their previous exchanges, it would be fair to expect chaos to unfold during this title match. It could also lead to a possible title change on WWE SmackDown. However, there’s a bigger chance that a slight assist from Azeez and an opportunistic move will help Crews retain his gold. It would be interesting to see the aftermath of this title match on all the four superstars involved.
