In this article, we will examine three potential finishes for the Intercontinental Title contest at WWE SNME.

#3. Finn Balor could replace Dominik Mysterio with a new member

The Judgment Day has been dealing with internal turmoil for months. A week ago, "Dirty" Dom inadvertently got Finn Balor and JD McDonagh booked to defend their World Tag Team Title against the team of AJ Styles and Dragon Lee. Unfortunately for the Irishmen, they lost the gold.

The Prince could exact revenge on his stablemate by costing him his title at SNME. He could then replace Dominik with a new superstar, laying the foundation for a massive singles feud.

#2. Dominik could retain his WWE championship

The King of Luchadors has been riding a massive wave of success since capturing two titles. There has been buzz on the internet about "Dirty" Dom facing John Cena in November 2025.

The Last Real Champion has held every major prize available in WWE during his illustrious career, except for the Intercontinental Championship. On RAW in Madison Square Garden, Cena could challenge Dominik for a blockbuster Intercontinental Title bout.

For the dream match to come to fruition, Mysterio must retain his title at SNME. He could once again use underhanded tactics to defeat Cero Miedo and Rusev.

#1. A new champion could be crowned

The Triple H-led creative team is known for dropping unexpected bombshells. They could once again pull off a shocker by crowning a new titleholder at SNME.

Rusev could end up capturing the title, beating Penta and Mysterio. He could then face John Cena on Monday Night RAW in MSG. The Last Real Champion has been facing many of his longtime rivals during his retirement tour. Hence, a title showdown between The Bulgarain Brute and Cena could be in the cards.

The Redeemer and John Cena have a long history, as they engaged in a heated rivalry for the United States Title in 2015. This time, they could face off with the WWE Intercontinental Title on the line.
