WWE Night Of Champions 2023: 10 Nightmares That Could Come True

10. A Surprise IC Title Switch?!

Bugger this!

Keep in mind that this article is obsessed with the worst things that could happen in Saudi. Mustafa Ali upsetting pro wrestling machine GUNTHER for the restored Intercontinental Title would defo qualify for that. Ali deserves better than he's been getting around this place, but this would be an outright disaster.

Longtime WWE fans know how much the company values a "surprise win" though. That's a familiar trope, and it might be viewed internally as the right thing to do before GUNTHER wins Money In The Bank (or something like that). Of course, Mustafa becoming an underdog champ would also destroy everything GUNTHER has worked hard to build.

Honestly, even typing this sucks - Ricochet was the last beneficiary of an underdog Intercontinental Title reign, and WWE creative quickly lost interest in that. It's hard to picture anything better for Ali. Word to WWE: DO NOT EVEN TRY THIS, OR ELSE!
