WWE.com posted a great article that looks at the company’s greatest Intercontinental champions. Here is the introduction:
“First introduced to WWE on Sept. 1, 1979, the Intercontinental Championship has been held by a wide variety of unique and talented competitors, from The Texas Tornado and “Rowdy” Roddy Piper to Rey Mysterio and The Miz.
