WWE: 5 Awesome Intercontinental Champions and 5 That Sucked

4. Ultimate Warrior

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zhN41WGcr6o Before catapulting himself to super-stardom at Wrestlemania VI with a win over Hogan, the Warrior was tearing it up as the Intercontinental Champion. He wasn't a great wrestler, but his energy more than made up for it. And the promos, who can forget the promos. Most fans tend to point towards Goldberg when they talk about the best example of highlighting a wrestler€™s strengths and hiding his weaknesses. However, the WWF did this first with how they booked the Warrior. His intensity coupled with the powerful moves and short amount of time in the ring gave every fan just enough to feel satisfied with his performance. Just look at the way he won the IC Title from the Honky Tonk Man. Granted, he had longer matches, but they involved guys like Rick Rude who knew how to make the man look even better in the ring. Their IC Title feud was great. And the best part about Warrior's second title run was that he never lost the IC belt. He has been the only guy to walk in as Intercontinental Champion in a champion vs. champion match, and walk out with both the IC and the WWE Title. That alone guarantees him a spot on this list.
