WWE Intercontinental Championship
The WWE Intercontinental Championship is a professional wrestling championship in WWE, which is currently held by Kevin Owens. Along with the WWE United States Championship, it is one of WWE's secondary titles. Although generally contested in the midcard at WWE shows, the title was defended in the main events of WrestleMania VI, SummerSlam 1992, the third and eighth In Your House events, and Backlash 2001. The championship has been called a "stepping stone" to the WWE World Heavyweight Championship.〔"WWE: Assessing the prestige of the Intercontinental Championship" on ''AllWrestling''. http://allwrestling.com/newswireitem/8090/wwe-assessing-prestige-intercontinental-championship/ (accessed 7th of April 2015).〕〔"Intercontinental Title Or United States Title: Which Is Currently Getting The Better Rub?" on ''Wrestle Zone''. http://www.wrestlezone.com/news/557011-intercontinental-title-or-united-states-title-which-is-currently-getting-the-better-rub (accessed 7th of April 2015).〕〔"Ranking the Top 10 Greatest WWE Intercontinental Championship Ladder Matches" on ''Bleacher Report''. http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2411995-ranking-the-top-10-greatest-wwe-intercontinental-championship-ladder-matches (accessed 7th of April 2015).〕
