There was a time when the Intercontinental Champion appearing in the Rumble might've meant something. those days are long gone - Shinsuke Nakamura was kicked off the apron by AJ shortly after Ridge Holland's entrance at #5.
Shin got 5:51 to show off his skills and fight with the likes of Austin Theory, but he didn't eliminate a soul. This IC Title reign is not going well.
